A Foraged Wild Mushroom Dinner at Della Terra
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is truly a great food city. Long gone are the days where we were only known for putting french fries on everything––from sandwiches to salads to pizzas and beyond.
Nowadays, we have so many incredible restaurants doing creative, inventive, mind-blowing things with foods. And one of my all-time favorite restaurants––Della Terra just north of Pittsburgh in a small town called Zelienople (zee-lee-in-oh-pole)––did one of those mind-blowing things this past weekend!

My last Italy recap post! And this one is all about the lovely, little northern Italian city, Torino.
You may be familiar with Torino for some of the same reasons I was: it hosted the 2006 Winter Olympics, and there’s some sort of Shroud of Turin there. It’s also known for its automotive history, as Torino is the headquarters for FIAT, Lancia, and Alfa Romeo.
Being in Torino was the true reason I was in Italy, as I had to be there at a conference for work. So even though my days in Torino were filled with many work-related things, I still saw a good bit of the city and ate…a lot of really great pizza.

I hope you like red!
I’m still pinching myself over the fact that I actually got to visit Maranello.
I don’t talk about this a lot, but I love Formula One (F1). I went to a few races when I was in high school, and my team has always been (and will always be) Ferrari.
Maranello is a small town in northern Italy and the home for Ferrari and the Scuderia Ferrari team. And you’re aware of that fact from the moment you get there. There are prancing horses, bright red road cars, and nods to the manufacturer everywhere. It’s kinda like Disney Land but for F1 fans.
Read MoreEating My Way Through Milano (Vegan + Vegetarian Travel)
It has been a while since we’ve done a good ol’ travel post here on the blog.
Like most folks, I haven’t been doing a ton of travel these past few years (for obvious reasons). But I’m starting to visit new-to-me places again, and I feel completely and totally energized and inspired.
I recently spent a little over a week in Milano, Modena & Maranello, and Torino in northern Italy, and honestly…I think it was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on.
