If you can’t make it to Europe, the next best thing is a class in the Little Italy part of downtown San Diego. Steve and I enjoy a two hour mental trip via “the Wines and Foods of Italy by Region”: each week a different area and 4-6 wines to sample, cheeses, polenta, pizza, and dulce. The class enjoys videos of each region and shares their own Italian stories.
It was one year ago today that we left for Manchester on our way to Volvo and Montalcino. This week’s trip will be to the Open Air Market in Little Italy on Saturday to replenish oils, spices, and memories. Bene, molto bene.
