Dining with the Saints
Please check out www.novena.com for my monthly column "Dining with the Saints," which features recipes for saints' days. The beautiful, art-filled blog is written by Barbara Calamari and Sandra DiPasqua and includes the stories of the lives of saints and monthly novenas and prayers.

But I love researching and creating great recipes to go with these amazing stories.The Italian Recipe Exchange
