Welcome

Hi my name is Donna.  This journal is the electronic version of little pieces of paper I have stuffed in my bag and notebook. Things that interest me and I want to hold onto but don’t have anyplace to put them. 

It’s mostly about Italy and Italian food, New England and the recipes and ingredients from this rugged and beautiful land that I now call home. There are also thoughts culture and language. 

We are in the process of moving our belongings back from Italy where we lived for more than 11 years.  So you might be subjected to some reminiscing while I open boxes from our Italian life.

John Anthony Rizzo is my partner in life and without whom this adventure wouldn’t have happened!
