It is travel time and soon I will be combing the streets of Italy for some great deals. I can never get enough of Italy -- the people, the food, the wine, the rolling Tuscan hills, and especially the markets and shopping. I have been quite fortunate in my life to travel to some wonderful countries but Italy is always at the top of my list. One day soon, in another post, I will share with you how we have taken some wonderful trips without breaking the bank.
I will be departing in two weeks and plan to take some great pictures and share with you some of my stories - especially if I find some really good deals. I always make sure I visit the Fontana di Trevi before leaving Rome. Legend says that if you toss a coin into the fountain with your right hand over your right shoulder, you will one day return to the eternal city. So far it has worked like a charm!
One of the activities scheduled on the tour that I am going on is an afternoon/evening at a cooking school as well as lunch at a Tuscan farm house. There are many things planned and I will be busy and moving fast, so I may not have time to stop by an internet café to make posts but will catch up when I get back.
For those of you that would like a little taste of Italy, visit 5 Minutes for Mom. Over the next four weeks, 5 Minutes for Mom is joining Olive Garden in an exciting project and will be sharing cooking techniques, recipes and lots more with their readers. Check out their site here for all the details. I am sure there will be some great recipes and I can’t wait to try a few myself.
Most important, they are giving away a lot of prizes and you must check this out -- Olive Garden is giving away a Trip for Two to Italy. The winner will receive an 8-day guided trip for two to Rome and Florence with a visit to Olive Garden’s Culinary Institute of Tuscany. Click here and you will be taken to 5 Minutes For Mom's website where you can enter. I believe you can enter every day.
Good Luck!
