Amazing Sicily!
Travel with me on a trip through Sicily, to World Heritage Sites. See intricate floor mosaics in a Villa which has survived since the 4th century AD! Walk with us 30 ft. underground to a 6th century Jewish Mikveh or Bath that had once been hidden from the public & then unearthed in1989. Learn about foods that originated in Sicily like, Chick Pea Panelle, Busiate Pasta, Arancini, Cannoli, Caponata, Cassatta. Join us as we accompany a friend to his ancestral town where he was thrilled to find the house that had once belonged to his grandparents. Delight in the Art! Food! History! Discovery!
