Tuscan Dreams--The next level--Over the top

Some people are lucky, some just fall in it. Chef P' has just received the gift of a lifetime. The only thing better might be doing it in Tuscany. Maybe in the future. Still, I'm a thousand miles from  Pete', but I'm as jealous as can be. I can't wait for a follow-up with photos next week. Just to make your mouth water, here is what possessed me to drool early this morning.

The Invitation
Hi Chef Pete' and Deb, Chef Gina Stipo, from Italy is preparing an Italian dinner at out home on Saturday, March 6th at 7:00 PM. Karen and Kenny S--- and the S-----t's purchased this item at a Fundraising event last summer for the Italian Cultural Institute of Louisville. We would love for you to be our guest, along with two other couples. Chef Gina is also an author of a Cookbook and is an expert on the history and traditions of the Palio. Just let us know and have a great weekend.   Le--a

Whether you have a day, a week or only a couple of days, let us show you the tastes of Tuscany. While you’re in Tuscany, join us for a morning or two in the kitchen for a hands-on Italian cooking class focusing on the foods and wines of Tuscany. The four-course lunch will be paired with wines from the region. The classes are held on a lovely estate in a 900-year-old mill with a large stone kitchen. Feel and experience the history of Tuscany through its foods and wines.


Our weeklong all-inclusive culinary tour gives you an in-depth experience of Italian cooking and the Tuscan way of life. Your accommodations are on a lovely olive estate just south of Siena in an 18th century villa or farmhouse renovated with care to include many of the original Tuscan architectural features. Walking trails through olive groves or cypress lined lanes give you the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of Tuscany. The culinary tour includes a full week of cooking classes, 7 nights accommodations, visits to local wine and food producers, wine tours, most all meals with wine and visits to quaint local villages. During the week we will open up the world of Tuscan wines from the basics to the complexities of this varied region.




Italian chef, Gina Stipo, leads and teaches the single day cooking classes and the fun, week-long immersion style culinary tour. Whether your vacation dreams are to spend a morning cooking or a week learning and living as a Tuscan, we can help you fulfill that dream and come away with beautiful memories.

She is interesting to do a Google search on. She was in Sarasota on feb. 20th.





Chef P' says, "OMG!
I think I may have an Italian mistress."

Blogmaster says " It looks as though the class is all women, where do I sign up?"

More, after the experience.

Vi auguriamo una buona salute
We wish you good health
