A Writing Retreat On Lake Como

Image
       Join me for a week on Lake Como, to write about that childhood memory, travel experience, or any other event you've been wanting to capture in print.  Spend the mornings in writing instruction, and afternoons in leisure touring the area, eating exquisite foods and pinching yourself that it's real.

I've made it a few times this season already, but not with spuntature. Since I was going to be making a ragù, I thought I'd include some sausages too, and put together some meatballs to enrich the sauce even more. As long as you're going to the trouble of cooking something for several hours, you might as well make enough to put in the freezer for a few meals later on, right? So I pulled out my biggest stainless steel pot to get it going. While the sauce was simmering away, I fried some meatballs.  I know, frying foods isn't the best th...
