Here in Switzerland oysters are something very, very special and not many people like them! I would love to live near the sea and here we all crave for it! I guess oysters are never as fresh as they are where they were caught... I think it would be very interesting to come to Italy and get taught how to eat all those beauties that come from the sea.

But we have lots of love and hope for the future. I think it's a good start, Val!<br /><br />More lovely recipes to come. I will post my pine nuts biscuit recipe, very soon. I will also be making seafood ravioli. So... look out for my stories and pics!<br /><br />Beijos to you, too!<br /><br />ANNA<br />xxAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15531642906387702641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587268744568236515.post-34886713582256201522012-01-01T12:42:35.939-08:002012-01-01T12:42:35.939-08:00Yoooo Hoooo Anna..
