“hey mambo! mambo italiano!”

This post is super late… :/ My good friend, Valerie has already been in Italy for over a month, attending culinary school.  But before she left, her wonderful sister, Allison, threw her the goodbye party to end all goodbye parties!  Valerie’s parents flew up from Atlanta to surprise her, as did her boyfriend and several other good friends from around the country.  A fantastic time was had by all, drinking good wine, eating delicious food, and wishing Val a most magnificent time abroad, all on a kick-ass roof deck overlooking Manhattan.  Why can’t every night be as fun as that was? 😉
