Here is my homemade pasta meal combined with New England seafood.  When I'm not creating paintings, one of my favorite pastimes is fishing and clamming.  We will review this in more detail in the cuisine of New England section, but I am including this here in the "pasta" section because it is inspired by the fresh "homestyle" pasta dishes I had in Italy.

 

Now it's time to visit one of my favorite regions of Italy not just for its cuisine, but also for its thriving art scene...
