Anet Carlin, Carola LaVerde, Beppe Tarrico

For our friends who knew her we must tell of Carola’s LaVerde passing September 10th, 2013. Our dear friend of many decades passed in the hospital in Florence after a long bout

Carole Tarrico

Carola LaVerde

with cancer. We will always remember her beautiful smile and big laugh. We can still taste the meals she cooked and set up so elegantly in her home in Alba, Italy. We will long remember her beautiful country estate in San Rocco and the lovely evenings on the back patio below the orchard with more courses than one can imagine. Our tours of the Southwest with Beppe and Carola are legendary, and her story will be told over and over. Her spirit will live in our minds forever. We missed her before her passing and now only miss her even more.  Our thought and prayers are with Beppe Tarrico and Filippo Tarrico.

Carola is survived by her loving husband Beppe Tarrico and her son Filippo Tarrico.
Call Anet for any details (805) 466-4653.

Her Home Address:

Texas TwinkieMahSue

My cousin in Houston was making this one Thanksgiving time visit while I was in Texas. She actually was dipping the Twinkies in the coffee mixture but being a lazy cook, I pour the mixture over the Twinkies. I don’t remember what else she put in except the Cool Whip and so I just made this up to copy what Tiramisu is sort of like.

Ingredients:
15 TwinkiesTwinkies have an infinite shelf life!
1 cup Kahlua or other coffee liqueur
1 cup coffee (strong)
2 Large Boxes Instant Chocolate pudding
5 cups milk
1 Large Cool Whip (let it defrost on the counter)
Chocolate dusting powder

Using a 13 X 9 pan
Place the Twinkies side by side nestled together
Mix to coffee and Kahlua together and drizzle over the Twinkies
Mix the 5 cups milk with the chocolate pudding mixes
Spread the thickened pudding over the Twinkies
Spread the Cool Whip over the pudding
Dust with a good grade of sweetened chocolate powder

Web TV Awards

While at COMDEX in Las Vegas in January, I went to the International Academy of Web TX awards. It was a gala to honor the wonderful work being done on the web. It was a hoot! Just like the Academy awards, but a bit smaller and it was dressy. I could meet many of these people who are creators, writers, actors, and cinematographers face to face. I wish you all could have been there. Too Much Fun. Well I decided to look up and view as many of the winners as I could stand. Continue reading
