		<title>President&#8217;s Day: US and Italian Presidents Share a Beer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You didn&#8217;t know it&#8217;s President&#8217;s Day? Come on, it&#8217;s only the 50th most important holiday on the federal calendar! Wikipedia says at the federal level, this holiday celebrates George Washington&#8216;s birthday. However, some states have changed the name or meaning to include Abraham Lincoln too. And that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m going to do, as I want [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ti Amo &#8211; A Valentine&#8217;s Day E-Cards Application</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first time I read, and paid any attention to a love declaration written on a wall was on  a walk in Tuscany, near the marshlands. Under a bridge, in huge black letters a drooling heart had decided to share  his sweet pain with the universe… and the loved one:&#8221;ogni tua parola e&#8217; una goccia [...]]]></description>

		<title>Penne ai Quattro Formaggi (Super Tuscan Mac &#8216;N&#8217; Cheese)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is interesting how different cultures have very similar recipes that fall into the category of &#8220;Comfort Food&#8220;: Mashed Potatoes, Meatballs, Mac &#8216;n&#8217; Cheese just to name a few. Each and every family that I know has a few recipes that are executed &#8220;on demand&#8221; whenever it might feel appropriate: if somebody is sick, if [...]]]></description>

		<title>Valentine&#8217;s Day Beer Surprise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I told my wife I was going to give her flowers, chocolate and jewelry for Valentine&#8217;s Day this year, she was really surprised how creative I was with my gift ideas. Not! What she didn&#8217;t know is that I actually was being ultra-thoughtful and spending a lot of time designing a cool gift. And [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Flaming Mandarin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of years ago we celebrated one of our dear friend&#8217;s birthday at Katsuya Restaurant in Hollywood. It was a real treat: private room, a fantastic menu, and a continuous flow of amazing cocktails that put the smile on everybody&#8217;s face.

		<title>Delicious Distractions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I often lie, to myself as well as others, that my least favorite place to meet with chefs is in their own restaurants, because of all the distractions. But the truth is that, while it might not be the most productive venue, I actually love working in restaurants. Love breaking one of the hospitality world’s [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Lesson On How To Slice Salami You Never Knew You Needed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No one can say Italians don&#8217;t take their football (meaning soccer) seriously. However, they take their food just as seriously, and when the two collide, well, let&#8217;s just say there is literally singing in the streets. One of the most memorable meals, of sorts, I had while in Florence was spent among a sea of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Olive Oil Gelato</title>

Our first birthday cakes, the special treats that grandma used to sneak us, or maybe the first thing we cooked, or attempted to cook?

		<title>Mozzarella: Campania’s World-Famous Cheese</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even if you&#8217;ve never been to Italy, chances are pretty good you&#8217;re familiar with a variety of Italian foods. What you may not realize, however, is that ingredients or dishes you think of as &#8220;Italian&#8221; are regional &#8211; for instance, pizza is universally thought of as Italian, but it&#8217;s specifically a Neapolitan creation. It&#8217;s not [...]]]></description>
