10 Foodie Finds From All Across Italy

Ciao from Italia!

The hardest list I have ever made. If you ever get to be a foodie in Italy, make sure you get at least one of each!

1. Tomatoes

Zoey Leonard

I have never been a huge fan of tomatoes, BUT ohhh my!!! These babies were delicious! Italians use them for everything! Here is my bruschetta from Sorrento!

2. Pizza

Zoey Leonard

This was the best Italian Margherita pizza that I had while I spent three weeks in Italy. It is from Sorrento

3. Lemons/limoncello

Zoey Leonard

This is a must try! Their lemons are twice the size and you can smell them from feet away! The limoncello is a very popular gift given from travels abroad! It is everywhere... sometimes you even get it for free with dinner!

4. Pasta

Zoey Leonard

This colorless, cheesy and creamy dish of glorious pasta was from a small little cafe that we stumbled upon in Florence after a long day! So glad I went there, if you could not tell by all the adjectives, I LOVED IT!

5. Fresh produce

Zoey Leonard

Everything is fresh here. I mean everything. No preservatives or anything. All organic. Which makes eating veggies that much better because they actually taste wonderful!

6. Cheesecake

Zoey Leonard

I found this beauty in Florence. Everyone raves about the gelato in Italy but try something different. Whatever you get won't disappoint you but don't be surprised if you order a "chocolate cake" and it actually just has chocolate icing...

7. Antipasto

Zoey Leonard

This huge plate comes before your meal. It is always a solid choice and is pretty close to our sandwich meats, but better.

8. Wine

Zoey Leonard

WINE. WINE. WINE. AND MORE WINE. They give it away and it is all so good! Drink up, you will have withdrawal when you get home!

9. Farinata

Zoey Leonard

This chickpea bread was served under a slice (most American) of pizza. I honestly could have just eaten multiple of these rather than the pizza! It was so good.

10. Tiramisu

Zoey Leonard

It comes in all shapes and sizes. With and without alcohol. It is ALWAYS good! I wish I could make it as well as the Italians do!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
