“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” – St. Augustine
After traveling to 5 different countries in a matter of 16 days, this long weekend was MUCH needed! Hubby Darling and I got back last week and have been catching up with work, unpacking, and getting the house in order. Sixteen days went by so fast, it’s hard to know where to start with the pictures, places, and food stories. I wanted to get something from each place we visited so that I could remember all the beautiful sites and delicious foods we experienced. Some of my favorite food purchases I made during my travels are kokum from Bombay, currants from London, saffron from Barcelona, lavender from Provence, pine nuts from Pisa, crushed red pepper from Rome, honey from Sicily, and oregano from Venice… whew! While we were on our trip we also dined at some lovely restaurants and I’ll be posting a few reviews about them as well. I’m excited and looking forward to experimenting and trying new recipes.
Ciao!
