Escape to Italy with six spring recipes
Briefly

The author shares their experience of a solo trip to Italy, which was initiated as a warm-weather escape amid post-holiday blues. During a Tuscany wine tour, they indulged in the region's wines, leading to an impulsive decision to ship home a collection of wines and olive oils. Upon returning home, the author finds delight in their purchases and reflects on the advice from their tour guide about enjoying wine rather than reserving it for special occasions.
I decided early on in my trip that I wouldn't bother with souvenirs - save an herb-salt seasoning blend I picked up from Dario Cecchini's Chianti-based butchery.
Weeks later I was back at home and my trip to Italy was a fast-fading memory. That is, until my shipment arrived in the mail.
