Golden zucchini, too much basil, melted provolone and spaghetti that disappear way too fast 🍝✨
Add an italian song in the background and suddenly everyone thinks you’re spending the summer somewhere on the amalfi coast ☀️🍋
Just missing the sea breeze, sunburnt shoulders and a second plate of Nerano ♫💛
