Dear Emily,

One of my lifelong dreams has finally come true! I'm actually learning how to cook my favorite Italian dishes right here in Italy!

When Andrew and I heard about a special tour package to Tuscany, we were thrilled. We immediately asked our travel agent to arrange the trip. I signed up for the Italian cooking classes, of course, while my husband opted for sightseeing, shopping, and playing golf.

My cooking lessons run for a week at Casa Alberto, an 18^th century villa in the Casentino valley near Florence. The place is owned by my cooking instructor, Paola Mondani, a chef who has worked in several European restaurants and has written a book on Italian cuisine. Paola is wonderful. She teaches in a very friendly and cheerful manner. And you know what? She goes to the public market every morning to buy fresh ingredients for our dishes. She even bakes the bread that goes with our pasta recipes!

Although the cooking sessions are elaborate, my classmates are given enough time for sightseeing. We go out every day to enjoy the beautiful Tuscan countryside and meet the local residents. Tomorrow, in fact, we will visit a vineyard and a producer of olive oil. I've convinced Andrew to go with us. Who else will carry all the bottles of wine and oil that I plan to buy?

So, how are things in Manhattan? Once I'm back there, I'll invite you, Mom, and Dad to my apartment for a taste of my home cooked ravioli and this recipe they call the trenette alpesto!

Your sister,

Marianne
