Geoff & Stella Crampton

 

At the 2006 Amalfi Event Reunion, we were all standing around the open kitchen area at the Berno House in Christina Lake. Stella and Geoff Crampton started to assemble the frittata. It looked good as they were making it and the taste was not let down. Served with the "Porchetta, the famous Italian roast" this was quite the meal. Here, above some 12 years later we still enjoy a good party!
