Holiday Aperitivo at Stacey’s — Friends, Italian Flavors & Festività
Details
Benvenuti, amici — and welcome to a holiday gathering straight from the heart.
Our beloved friend Stacey (yes, the warm soul you’ve seen on the bocce courts!) has opened her home for an intimate SLOC Friends of Italy holiday aperitivo — a cozy evening of Italian-inspired bites, conversation, music, and the simple joy of being together.
If you’ve met Stacey, you already know:
she cooks with love, she plays with enthusiasm, she brings Italian music to bocce, she says Ciao bella like a blessing — and she makes everyone feel at home.
This gathering reflects everything we’re creating as a community:
✨ friendship that grows naturally
✨ connection that feels real and easy
✨ spaces where people show up as themselves
✨ the spirit of Italy lived through flavor, music & shared moments
### What to Bring
To keep this simple, light, and delicious:
- An Italian or Italian-inspired appetizer to share
- OR a festive dessert
- BYOB — your favorite wine, bubbles, or holiday beverage
(We gently ask: no main dishes for this one — aperitivo style keeps the flow easy and joyful.)
### Expect a warm evening with:
🎶 Stacey’s beloved Italian playlist
🥂 Clinking glasses and heartfelt conversation
🍅 Appetizers made with love
🎄 Holiday cheer, laughter, and togetherness
🤝 A small circle of friends becoming closer
Limited to 12 guests — RSVP required
This is how our community grows — one open door, one shared table, one warm gathering at a time.
Come celebrate the season with us, alla maniera italiana.
Andiamo a festeggiare insieme.
(Let’s celebrate together.)
