Even with 8 people here, we had more leftovers than we knew what to do with. On the menu: baked rigatoni, lasagna, garlic bread, sausages and sautéed bell peppers.

Also, a few bokeh pictures thrown in for good measure… (I was playing with new camera toys while the delicious food was being prepared.)
