    Congratulation on the third anniversary of your blog. The recipes are great and the pictures of your food are beautiful. I can almost taste the food without actually making it although I will try some of your dessert recipes this fall. Keep on blogging.

    Adri, what a delight – Happy third Blogiversary!!! You already know that I enjoy your blog tremendously, I love your wonderful writing style, the fact that I always learn something new when I come here to visit and I am looking forward to many more fabulous blog entries!

    Your giveaway is wonderful and I am jealous (in a really good kind of way) – I do have one last question, when I attempted to “like” the link to my blog on your FB site, (big thanks for that!) I could not and I also cannot “like” your blog for some reason…aiuto! Ti ringrazio!

    Hi there! Thanks for your kind comment on my blog. I’m very jealous of your Italian connections, if there was one place I’d like to learn to cook is in Italy..the food is absolutely amazing! Take care and happy anniversary!

  14. Ping from Laura @ Family Spice:

    Congratulations on your anniversary! What a gorgeous prize pack! Ok, I think that is a coffee pot of some sort. Reminds me of a Turkish coffee pot, actually! Thank you for visiting my blog!

  15. Ping from Jamie Thompson:

    A machine to keep Anthony under control.

  17. Ping from Lew Rothbart:

    Congratulations on the website anniversary. Even though I’m not much of a cook, I love reading the history and cultural aspects of the selections.
    On to the contest. One glance and I thought I knew immediately what it was. A carburetor for a 1953 Chevy. No, I guess not. What I actually thought it was something to measure or make espresso and steam the milk.
    Best always,
    Lew

  18. Ping from Cat Braithwaite:

    That looks like one of those rockin’, stovetop espresso machines! …just sayin’ 🙂

  19. Ping from speedy70:

    It looks like a really cool stove-top coffee percolator. I love your blog! You have the best pictures, too!
