This evening as I stood in the kitchen in my gym gear, listening to a local Italian radio station, whistling and gently rolling homemade gnocchi between my hands, I felt like I was at home in North Carlton or down at Point Lonsdale preparing a meal for one of our many dinner parties. It was fun to be able to cook, entertain and enjoy the company of some special friends.
