You've read the review for her book, now its time to ask the author herself some questions! Tosca Reno was kind enough to agree to an interview with me, so here it is. Enjoy!1. Your whole philosophy is eating clean, but sometimes its difficult to judge exactly what clean eating…
I love the idea of an icy cold Coke. The commercials really do it for me; the way the liquid splashes into the glass and wraps around the ice cubes. There's such satisfaction when the drinker quenches their thirst, relishing in the sweetness and smooth, delightfully fizzy taste of Coca…
I'm home at last from my travels and back in blogging business! That was an incredibly long vacation- gone for a full 22 days, between first stopping to see my grandparents in Ontario and then from there going to Italy. By the end of it, we were all in agreement…

This is it! Tomorrow I leave early in the morning for Ontario to visit my grandparents. On Wednesday, August 20th my plane departs for Rome (!!!); we'll be heading straight to Palermo, Sicily for 3 days. Then we'll take the train back to Rome for 5 days before staying in…
