KENNETT: Bella notte

The social hall at Kennett Friends Meetinghouse was transformed into an Italian restaurant on Saturday for Boy Scout Troop 24's spaghetti dinner, complete with red-and-white checked tablecloths and even an accordion-player to serenade us (he's a Scout dad). The tomato sauce, meatballs and mushrooms were delicious as always, and the uniformed Scouts were prompt and polite waiters and bussers. We said hi to Scout mom Sally Warren, who was setting out the array of desserts. Our decadent choice was chocolate cake topped with chocolate icing and chocolate chips.
