In honor of some VIP houseguests flying in last night to stay for the weekend, and influenced by the late hour of the flight arrival, a "welcome dinner" was required. What does one make to welcome folks to a much colder part of the country on a dark, windy night, knowing these particular visitors live predominantly on take-out and Happy Hour? Lasagna! Brilliant! Gracefully accompanied by a tangy spinach salad with red onion, fresh mushrooms, pine nuts and feta, coated oh-so-lightly by my favorite homemade balsamic vinaigrette and some buttery whole clove garlic french bread.. . Was it the gooeyness of the generous slabs of melted mozzarella? Was it the Giada-inspired bechamel/tomato sauce peeking between the layers? Was it the two bottles of wine? No matter! Dinner Success!!
