    Glad to see you back Nicki. Celine is quite the Chef and to cook for so many is incredible. Poor little Holly hiding. Too cute. So many expats in this area. They keep the economy going. Enjoy your time there and your family is waiting. They had quite the time in Lisbon. Their vlog was really good. Stay safe and see you tomorrow. 😘

    This was so much fun! and really nice that you were able to go back and do a part 2 because that doesnt happen often in your videos…..the look on Celine’s face when the woman started singing ..I kept thinking “dont make eye contact!” it’s that classic best friend look where you will crack up 😂…..love the new intro too.

      Had to smile at your comment. As a mom of a classically trained singer, I feel those beautiful voices are best heard...at a distance🙂 One of the most surreal beautiful moments I had was hearing Botticelli at a distance, warm up before his outdoor concert at Teatro del Silenzio.

    Nicky, I have been watching your videos for years now, I can tell you the obvious reasons why I enjoy everything about them, but
    I can sum them all by saying that Its the only place I feel I am not investing my time, you are generously and genuinely giving me yours and that of your family as well. I am a businessman so I now a good deal when I see one.
    Best of everything for all of you.

    What a beautiful home in Tuscany, Chef Celine, reminded me of my grandmother cooking in the kitchen but without Sole Mio by an Opera singer...instead it was Frank Sinatra on the radio. It brought back a lot of old memories. However Holly with one look stole the show. Wonderful video Nicki!!!

    What a lovely home - with the perfect kitchen! I love the layout with the kitchen as if a stage, where all at the table can watch as their meals are prepared, as if a theatrical event where you get to eat the results of the performance!
    The menu looked delightful. Everyone seemed pleased with the setting, the company & of course - the wonderful food. Niki - you always find such interesting things to invite us to. How nice to have such wonderful & talented friends going back to childhood. The ones I've seen have great personalities, & know how to enjoy life - as do you.
    I'm so glad to have discovered you & your family via watching Sara & Luca.

    What a wonderful way to pass the time while your family is away Nicki. You are right, the kitchen is a dream.
    Risotto is one of my favourite dishes, so pleased Celine didn’t use garlic, it makes me terribly sick, I feel much better about it now! I feel embarrassed
    When I have to tell an Italian person I can’t eat garlic. The singer sang beautifully.

    Thank you Nikki, threw you we received a special invitation to a wonderful bowl of risotto and a class in how to make it, no where I would rather be momentarily, please thank Celine for the demo. It is easy to see how you and Celine are long lasting friends, both of you are skilled in your craft which opens many doors to be among many gatherings of celebration and isn't food a celebration in itself?
    The opera singers voice was professionally. Does she sing on stage? Once we celebrated a birthday at an Italian restaurant and a server happened to be studying and/or in training to be an opera singer and he came to our table per request and sung a beautiful Italian song. Very memorable. The time you share with others has value. Your content is always very comfortable watch.
