I’ve said it before, and I’m sure I’ll say it again — breakfast is, without a doubt, my favorite meal of the day. Muffins, eggs and waffles. Pancakes and french toast and oatmeal, oh my! Sweet or savory, there are just so many choices and …
Buongiorno amici! I’m writing to you from…. well, from East Boston. But my heart (and stomach) is still in Italia! We recently spent ten(ish?) glorious days in the motherland, and I have been dying to tell you all about it. It was truly unbelievable. I’ve …
