Cristina Ceccatelli Cook grew up in Tuscany, but after falling in love with an American, she moved to Sun Valley, Idaho, where she opened Cristina's Restaurant 15 years ago. She re-creates the restaurant's classic Italian dishes in Cristina's Tuscan Table, her second cookbook. This is a quote which she wrote in the book - "no man is lonely while eating spaghetti - it requires too much attention." :)
