Welcome to the first post of my piccolofoodblog! Piccolo is my maiden name and it also means little. So welcome to my little food blog! I am new to blogging so I don't expect BIG things!
I am doing this as a result of my passion to cook, bake, and entertain! I love to share my recipes and ideas and thought this would be the best way to reach all my friends and family! Because my husband, Mark, and I do alot of entertaining, many of our guests get a sample of my cooking. As a result, I usually get requests for recipes. It has become somewhat time consuming sitting at my computer typing out my recipes...so it's brought me to blogging.
My love of cooking and baking is a result of sitting under the excellent culinary teachings of my mother, Maria. We call her Mamma Piccolo. She is an immigrant from Sicily and taught me everything she knows about Italian cooking. In addition, I love to read cooking magazines, recipe books, and watch Food Network. I experiment with all kinds of recipes and have accumulated lots of recipes. I have quite the recipe fettish. But my family benefits from it daily.
Something that really saddens me is the lack of homecooking in families today. Cooking and baking is a dieing art. It's my hope that my blog will encourage you to plan weekly menus, try new recipes, and cook fresh meals for your family and friends. It really is easy and a big time-saver in the long run.
So stay tuned...I will try to enter new recipes and ideas as often as I can. In the mean time, please let me know if you have any cooking questions or requests.
Buon Appetito!
