I just love foodie experiences—especially those with multiple dining and wining opportunities. On Saturday morning, The Man and I arrived at the Findlay Market just as it came into full swing.

Tuscany has been on my mind all week long!! On this Photo Friday, I wanted to revisit a few of my favorite shots from our last Tuscan Adventure–wine tasting, sampling local fare, my discovery of burrata, and of course, the Tuscan sunshine.

Gelato. The very word puts joy in my soul! The thought of lush, bright fruit flavors, deep chocolate and vibrant nuts is enough to make a girl pack a bag in a jiffy to catch a plane to bella Italy…..stat! While traveling, my favorite question to ask taxi drivers, hoteliers, bellmen and passersby is, “Dove
