Creminelli Fine Meats: Salami {GIVEAWAY}
{pictured above: Salame Musica}
Sono davvero emozionata! Have you ever tasted Italian Salame? REAL Italian Salame? I’m not talking about something you might run across at the mall, oh no, I’m talking about handcrafted artisan salame. Aka the good stuff, that up until last week I had NOT tasted outside of Italy. Yes, because of those pesky little custom laws I could NEVER bring any salame back with me {because let’s just say if you try they’ll confiscate it, just trust me, don’t ask me how I know…moving on LOL}. So you can imagine my level of giddyness when a brown box full of scrumptious salumi arrived on my door from Creminelli Fine Meats…I was salivating with anticipation before I even opened the butcher paper.

Ossi dei Morti {Bones of the Dead Cookies}
Ossi dei Morti means bones of the dead in Italian. This might sound a little creepy but I assure you these “bones of the dead” are not. They are actually little crunchy snow capped bites of deliciousness that have a beautiful significance behind them.
Cjalsons Krofin di Timau
Chances are good you might not have heard of Cjalsons before. After all it’s not a very Italian sounding name is it ; ) What are they you ask? *hand on chest* I’m so happy you asked ; ) Cjalsons are a traditional recipe from my beloved Friuli Venezia Giulia, which as you know by my many references to this jewel of a region, is located in the North-East of Italy.
