"Where there is no bread, there is no love."
--Italian proverb
Cookbooks are second only to travel guides when it comes to books that help you daydream your way to far-off lands. Although, since cookbooks help you recreate one of the best parts of any visit to another country -- the food -- maybe they are the best way to go on an imaginary vacation.

Mariaelisa's woodblock prints of farm scenes, rustic baker's ovens, and lucious plants decorate the pages, and the text for all three books is in both Italian and English. Talk about a way to travel without leaving the house, or even the kitchen!

These really are among my most favorite 'art' pieces you offer. They are so authentic and beautifully done and speak so truly to the rustic life of Italy. She's a true master of her craft.
