You are whetting my appetite for a trip to Abruzzo. I’m already hooked on adriática seafood and all things Adriatic from trips to Istria and Croatia, but now you have me plotting a whole summer in Italy. 🤍

Thank you so much for the cookie recipe. Our local wine shop just had a tasting experience with those wines . Guess we will have to save some to try those yummy sounding cookies

This may be neither the time nor the place but the mention of Abruezzese cherries and the abundance of cherries that we are blessed with right now sent me hunting for my copy of Preserving Italy. I have two sheets of cherries in the oven already but have a question - at what point are the pits removed? Thank you and wishing for a speedy recovery for you!

Looking forward to an Abruzzo holiday, but in the meantime - I am ADDICTED to the Chicken Ricotta meatballs from Everyday Italian. I have made them countless times for family and fancy meals. Even my one year old granddaughter loves them. The wine cookies are next up! (not for the granddaughter, maybe...)
