A thunderstorm arrived just in time for the first course, giving us dinner and a show with a pretty epic finale — a neon pink sunset that stopped us in our tracks just before dessert.

When the food is this good, we can worry a little bit less about things like weather or whether or not the table is so perfectly set (although we still try our best, every time). But, as rain poured all day the day before the Supper and flooded the lawn outside The Barn at Bedaw Farms, we started to wonder if we’d be able to set the table there at all.

We lucked out with a perfectly stunning day, weather-wise, and a wonderful group of guests to gather around the table. After a welcome cocktail and tasting room tour, we walked up the hill to a the barn full of barrels of aging whisky, where the table was set outside the open doors of the cask room.

Right on the razor’s edge between summer and fall, Cape Cod is in full splendor. The fireworks of the Forth of July are a distant memory, replaced by hydrangeas bursting in vibrant shades against the whitewashed sides of clapboard houses. On a sultry, sunny day right at the end of the season, we welcomed a wonderful group of guests from across the US to the water’s edge at Wequassett Resort for a Supper we won’t soon forget.

Some of our favorite memories from our exclusive trip to Picinisco, a historical Italian village in the region of Lazio, Italy. An idyllic corner of the world where we enjoyed the fresh mountain air, a slower pace and long meals with new friends!
