From Cincinnati  we headed south on highway 75 for 6 hours , destination Asheville, a small town in the Blue Ridge  Mountains. We had two evenings to spare before  our next engagement and everyone  told us Asheville  was  the perfect place to spend  them.
Famous  for its  laid back  attitude, live music and locally made craft beers . Honestly  they weren’t  wrong ,we had an amazing  time. Plus , having come 14th  in the national burger making championships ,it was the perfect place for us and we had burgers for lunch  and dinner  on both days.

After such a fun break it was time to move on . The town of Morganton lays 60 miles east of Ashville and we had been invited  there by our friends Bill and Kristin Steiner.

Together they run a company called “Adventures in Italy “that specializes in taking people to Orvieto and helping them discover the surrounding  delights. I met them a few years ago when they brought  a group for a cooking class at my farm house and they have been coming  back ever since.  They are super friendly and relaxed , the perfect people to show you Italy.
Morganton is an amazingly  pretty little town ,but don’t  let it’s  small size fall you . What it lacks in size it more than makes up for in friendliness . We had heard about Southern hospitality and here it was being served in extremely  large portions.

Our first engagement  was to be a dinner for 21 people at the home of a lovely couple called Sharon and Phil . We had met Sharon and Phil in Italy a few years ago when they had attended  a cooking class at our home with Bill and Kristin . I was extremely  happy to be in Sharon’ s kitchen  as she is an accomplished  cook and entertainer , at the hart of Morganton social events. They are the perfect hosts and i really want to thank them for opening their home to us.

Dianne and Gene live in a beautiful house over looking lake James on the out skirts of Morganton. The perfect location for a cooking  class ,plus  perfect hosts made this a truly  great day.

I  had a fantastic  time at their home . All the guests really got involved in the class and were great fun to be with.  I can’t  thank Dianne and Gene enough  and hope to see them later in the year when they come to Italy.

Our trip to North Carolina was over and it was time to leave. Once again i want  to thank everyone for making our trip so memorable, especially Bill and Kristin  for inviting  us and letting us invade their lovely home. Plus ,a very special  thank you to Morganton ,the little town with the biggest hart.
Next stop Massachussetts……..
