Michelle @ Italian Mama Chef
Any chance you’ll be coming to Northeast Ohio in the future?
Mark Leslie
Not at the moment, but I should. My father’s side of the family is from Sandusky, so I have lots of relatives in that part of northern Ohio. I’ll let you know if I get up that way in 2011.
Cookie Knott
I heard your inteview on public radio today! I will be spendingEaster weekend in Connobio, Italy and then a week in Sicily. I would love to learn how to cook real Italian food. Do you give lessons?
Mark Leslie
Sure, I can give some lessons. Do you have a copy of the book yet? The recipes included are very simple, very Italian and very delicious. Capitol Book & News has copies if you’d like to pick one up. Give it a read, try a recipe and, should you need further guidance, let’s get together and cook! Maybe do a little cooking class for you and a couple of friends? I love to cook and talk about Italy. Let me know~ Mark
Cookie Knott
Sorry, I am just now replying but I thought you would email me. I didn’t realize I should come back to your website to get my answer. Yes, I have a copy but I have lent it out. I talked to Richard before going to Cannobio and would love to have a cooking get together to promote your book. When would be a good time for you? Have you done anything with the Friends of the Wetumpka LIbrary? I’m in a club that meets on the 2nd Monday at 6:30pm and they are always looking for a good program plus Tintagil meets on the 2nd Tuesday at 3 pm in a Montgomery home. LMK 567-0050
Mark Leslie
Sounds wonderful. I’ll e-mail you! -M
