Pranzo alla piemontese

I've spent the week-end at my parents, and in fact I'm still here.
I am supposed to fly back to London tomorrow night but there are two strikes in the way: British Airways (my flight is supposed to operate, but you never know) and an Italian strike of airport ground staff.
Well, we'll see what happens!
The weather has been grey and drizzly at times, and haven't done much at all. Going out upsets parents as they want me at home.
Today my best friend Franco and his parents were invited round to lunch.
It was a big lunch: 4 starters, 2 main courses, a soup, 3 desserts (you can see pictures of quite a similar lunch from 2 Boxing Days ago here).
One of the desserts - brought by our guests - was a huge tray of delicious, eat-in-one-mouthful pastries, one of my favourites.
I think I'd probably order such a tray as my last meal!
