Today, a SUPER CHEESY STUFFED SPINACH SAVORY PIE. I absolutely didn’t feel like going out shopping and the only thing I could do was my usual art of “making do with what I have”. I had frozen spinach available and didn’t feel like sautéed spinach, so I checked the fridge and I had a leftover mozzarella and some eggs about to expire. I assure you that it turned out to be a really amazing savory pie, try it out.

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog. My name is Francesca, a true native of Taranto. I love cooking desserts and traditional dishes, and my inspiration comes from the women in my family. Photography, for me, is about capturing the moment… in a shot, you hold your breath and then start again, savoring every little detail as you develop it. Why Ethra? She was the wife of Phalanthus, the founder of Taranto, the Spartan city. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you all… there are already so many of you following me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
