I am glad I found you. I am a kindred spirit with an obsessive love for Italy and a disctinctly US zip code. When I'm not in Italy, I bring Italy to me through cooking and exploring the NY city area. I am anxious to see what other recipes you have to share. <br /><br />My blog is fairly new, so there isn't a ton of content yet.

One of ours also really liked water - he used to sit in the bath tub and tongue the faucet until we'd turn water on a bit. One of our neighbors also had a cat that liked the tub, and he mentioned he read someplace that because cats are original desert animals, they may have a water loving gene. Who knows? Anyway, great looking cake! Oranges have terrific flavor, and they certainly do brighten up gloomy winter weather. Really fun post - thanks so much.Kitchen Riffshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09334461438904669081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387813811203789547.post-3899111995412520462013-03-21T18:47:24.136-05:002013-03-21T18:47:24.136-05:00This March weather stinks!
