Pasta....

 

Where would you find find such nicely colored pasta other than in Italy.....  

In Tuscany we would pass a lot of shops and stalls selling pasta in the most fantastic colors and forms. 

 

 

Together with these colorful tomatoes....

And some olive oil....













And fragrant herbs....

And while you are selecting recipes or start the cooking... have some prosciutto with a small glass of  prosecco.  (You see it is definitely a pro-thing.)  Although the hairy legs.... 

And don't forget the bottle of Chianty.
