How to cook Peaches and Amaretti; Italian classes with Cooking in Florence!

November 15, 2019/ Kristie Prada

In September I was lucky enough to make a trip to Tuscany. The weather was still beautiful and I enjoyed several activities in this stunning region, some of which you may have wondered about trying yourself.

I’ve always wanted to do an Italian cookery class. I’m married to an Italian and have had lots of lessons from Nonna and Zia (Grandmother’s and Aunts) however there is always another dish to learn in Italy as food is so regional.

10 Best Things to Do in Tuscany in Autumn or Fall

October 25, 2019/ Kristie Prada

Although we all love a Summer break, Autumn is one of my favourite times to travel to Italy. There are fewer crowds, the heat is not so overpowering, but often there’s a warm sun. Local festivals which suit the seasons are in abundance and most importantly the food in Italy is so comforting!

Last month I ventured back to beautiful Tuscany and as usual, the break was wonderful but too short! There is so much to do in this region and it’s easy to miss out or just visit the obvious hot spots.
