Having lived in Milano, Italy; Diana and Umberto’s contribution to dinner was Strawberry Tiramisu.  It was a heavenly dessert and you can see why!  I consider this couple to be one of the most well-read and ‘smart’ couples I know.  I found their stories at our feast table in good humour and so amazing!  I am grateful for Diana and Umberto!
