\n\"cappuccino
\ncopyright \u00a02009, Maria Liberati
\nCounting down the hours here at the airport till my first authentic cappuccino and cornetto..13 hours and counting..after all is has been\u00a0 about 8 weeks since my last..how did I go so long without them…Since food is my only drug of choice…and an authentic cappuccino and artisan cornetto are not difficult to become addicted to…my thoughts these last few days have been filled with anticipation of the ones that are to come while working at my office in Abruzzo <\/a>and Rome….<\/a>
\nFirst night\u00a0 in Rome <\/a>will be a wine reception to celebrate the release of my second book…
\nThe Basic Art of Holidays & Special Occasions (even though official release date is Spet 15th you can purchase it now online at amazon.com http:\/\/ad.vu\/hzgr<\/a>\u00a0
\n\u00a0
\nFilled with Holiday recipes (140+), memories, menus and wine pairing tips for\u00a0 Holidays spent in Italy. Although the book is written in English, the Italians tend to express appreciation for someone that touts the Italian culture-wine and food.
\nAs I go home to Abruzzo<\/a> leaving my other home in\u00a0 the US for a bit ..it is always a bittersweet departure..but I am fortunate to have friends and family in both locations…. that makes it\u00a0so bittersweet \u00a0to leave either place… always missing\u00a0special people and places in one\u00a0place \u00a0while loving the\u00a0place I am in at the\u00a0 same time….
\nStay tuned in the coming weeks for more recipes..stories..and memories, also a podcast from some special locations..
\nIn the meantime..here is recipe to begin with.. since I\u00a0will be visiting\u00a0a villa in Sorrento<\/a> for a meeting\u00a0..here is a refreshing, different version of a tiramisu that uses limoncello instead of coffee….it is really ‘lemony’ ..if you have access to \u00a0 lemons\u00a0from \u00a0Sorrento use them , if not be sure the lemons you use for this are really fresh, and fragrant…
\nAlso, you can find limoncello at most stores that carry liquor now..but if it is called something similar to limoncello- like limonello and other similar names it was not made with the real trademarked lemons of Sorrento..<\/a>
\nEnjoy
\nTiramisu di Limoncello\"limoncello<\/strong>
