LOLLY’S FROM ITALY WITH LOVE WEEKNIGHT PASTA KIT GIVEAWAY!!!!!

FIRST PRIZE

**TWO CERAMIC HANDMADE PASTA BOWLS FROM CERAMICHE CARELLA OSTUNI IN PUGLIA, ITALY

**A HAND-PRINTED 100% LINEN SMALL TABLE CLOTH 70x70cm FROM ANTICA BOTTEGA PASCUCCI IN ROMAGNA, ITALY*

*I’m obsessed with these artisanal hand-stamped mini table cloths and use them as placemats for two, decorative table centerpieces, or full tablecloths on my small balcony table. An older Italian woman buying them in the Ravenna shop tipped me off to their many uses as she was buying them as little gifts or ‘pensieri’.

**TWO EMBOSSED ITALIAN WATER GLASSES FROM VILLA D’ESTE TIVOLI **

**an exception to the rest, these are not remotely artisan, but I love these robust everyday drinking glasses that it seems every nonna has a version of on her tavola. I use them for wine too. They give that family Sunday lunch feeling.

**A STONEWASHED 100% LINEN DISHTOWEL ‘ASCIUGO TUTTO’ AKA ‘I DRY EVERYTHING’ GENEROUSLY GIFTED FROM OPERA in COMO, ITALY (Grazie, Marcella!)

**FOUR 500G MICHELE PORTOGHESE BRONZE-CUT PASTAS MADE IN FLORENCE, ITALY (FROM DURUM WHEAT GROWN IN ITALY)

**FOUR PRINTED WPFI RECIPES TO MAKE WITH THESE PASTAS:

1. PACCHERI to make WPFI’S BIG TUBE PANTRY PASTA WITH RUN AND TOMATO

2. PASTINA to make Raising Bambino’s PASTINA IN BRODO

3. SPAGHETTI to make WPFI’S PISTACCHIO LEMON SPAGHETTI

4. ORECCHIETTE to make WPFI’S ORECCHIETTE WITH CIME DI RAPA

**SHIPPING INCLUDED TO WHEREVER YOU ARE ❤️
