Much to my vicarious delight, vacation and work commitments recently took Alyson Oüten to Europe for a month; from Spain to Portugal to Italy and Israel. (If you read my magazine or CLUCK newsletter, you’re already familiar with Alyson.)
For some of my Geography Journal entries she’ll take you to each of those stops (and more), but today she begins with her business trip to Italy where her travels spanned from Milan to Rome … and from pizza to Puttanesca.
Take it from here. It’s all yours, Aly!!!!!

This is Great! I’ll probably never get to Italy but the photos and taste of their culture was so fun!! Thanks for sharing!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Alyson! Thanks for sharing this great story, recipe and photos. I am excited for this blog.
Mary Jane – do you have plans to push out emails to subscribers once you load new blog updates?
We do plan on some email alerts once we get all the kinks worked out. Thanks for visiting!!!! Come back real soon. We’ll leave the porch light on.
Awesome. Love the article. I don’t know if I will get to visit many countries like that, but I sure enjoyed sharing your experience. The recipe looks good. I will have to try it one of these days!
Thanks so much!
Amazing! You made me feel like I was there and the mushroom pasta looks amazing!
LOVE the photos, story, recipe, and looking forward to more of the same. Maybe sometime you can take me on your adventuresome trips. — Alyson’s Mom 🙂
Thank You so much for sharing that with us. I can still smell and taste those mushrooms! I would love to go to Italy someday! How wonderful would that be?
Love this.
I am 1/2 italian but have never been to Italy yet. Some day. True Italiano.
This is really good… I use raw zucchini noodles and it was wonderfully carb free. Thanks for the recipe. BTW, I have a huge tarragon bush if you ever need any. 🙂
