GIVEAWAY – 3 copies of A September to Remember…culinary travels in ITALY

11th April 2021

US ONLY GIVEAWAY

3 copies of A September to Remember: Searching for Culinary Pleasures at the Italian Table by Carole Bumpus – ITALY

3 copies of A September to Remember

Join Carole Bumpus and her husband in Book Three of the Savoring the Olde Ways series as they take you on their first culinary trek through Italy, including regions of Lombardy, Tuscany, Compania, Apulia, and Lazio. Embrace unforgettable characters such as lovely guides Lisa and Margarita, who introduce you to the “true Italian experience.” Sup on traditional foods (cucina povera) including local tortelli, pappardelle al cinghiale (wild boar), bistecca all Fiorentina, pasta alla vongole (clams), or saltimbocca alla Romana. Sip regional wines, along with memorable digestivos like limoncello and grappa. Find yourself dancing at harvest festivals, climbing through Etruscan tombs, traipsing among Roman ruins, or bathing in ancient Roman termés (hot springs). Climb to the heights in elegant Capri on the gorgeous Amalfi Coast, or to the top of the “holiest of holies” at St. Peter’s Basilica. Soak up ancient and cultural history in Milan, Firenze (Florence), Amalfi, Pompeii, Lecce, and Rome. Bask in the sun and opalescent waters along the rugged coasts of the Tyrrhenian and Adriatic Seas. And, best of all, capture a rare glimpse into the secrets of the Mediterranean psyche while sharing a good meal with new friends. It is truly the trip of a lifetime.

Coming May 2021

    I really love fettuccine Alfredo. It’s so caloric I don’t eat it often, but I savor it when I do.

    Aubergine Parmigiana for me, married to a Mediterranean man for over 50 years I still can’t make it taste as good as our favourite Italian restaurants.
