Default Ciao from Tuscany

I have not had time to be on the board for quite a while and wanted to jump in again!

I just closed my cooking school space in Florence after 20 years and now am doing more market tours and custom programs as well as having my own Column in a English language magazine now here in Italy.

Working on a book ( aren't we all?)


Tough life, but someone has to do it!

Ciao! I'm so happy to see you here! I've recommended your school to friends who were searching for such venues, so I'm even more sad to hear you've closed the school. Now I'm eager to read your book. Enjoying your company over aperitifs and strolling the streets of Florence in 2002 is a fond memory for my husband and me.

I'm sure our community will be enhanced by your extensive knowledge and wonderful sense of humor.

Welcome!
Mezzaluna

Thanks!
I am still on slow dialup out in the countryside, Certaldo, where I live, so don't spend hours online.
Am trying to get faster cheaper connection so I can though!

I also have my own column now in the American Mag, an Italian English language monthly!
