“Venice is Italy’s kingdom of salt & pearls, prosecco & mermaids, bigola & polenta. Tessa Kiros travels through this city, breathing in it’s atmosphere & letting it’s bejeweled past & dark alleyways fuel her imagination. Mingled among the recipes & stunningly beautiful photography are Tessa’s diary jottings on the life & food of Venezia.” ~ from Venezia Food & Dreams by Tessa Kiros

I just received this beautiful Italian cookbook, Venezia Food and Dreams by Tessa Kiros, in the mail today and I am thrilled! I can’t wait to get started cooking her recipes for authentic Venetian fare. This cookbook features mouthwatering recipes, breathtaking photography, and beautiful writing. It’s printed on extremely good quality paper, and the pages are edged in gold. It even has a black velvet bookmark. Pretty, pretty, pretty! I’m going to make the winter squash gnocchi and tiramisu this weekend. Mmmmmmm….

Have a beautiful weekend!
