PG Tip: Health + Wellbeing

Be sure to eat plenty of fruit every day. Fruit is a great source of vitamins and anti-oxidants so your skin will glow, and you will have plenty of energy for the evening festa. Slices of Fruit can be found in Campari drinks. Other great sources of Fruit are limoncello or watermelon crush. Plus there are many other colourful options. Why not experiment with them all? And don't worry if you mix them up. In some cultures this is know as Fruit Salad.

PG Tip: The New Religion

Ciaoism.

The basic tenets of Ciaoism are very simple to follow- Love and Laughter for All.

To practice, all you need to do is greet as many people as possible with a smile and a friendly "Ciao".

Followers of this new religion are called Ciaoists.

Those who are greeted with a smile from you and a friendly "Ciao", but decline to respond in a positive way can be classified as "Ciao mean".  But don't lose faith. They will come around eventually.  Keep up the Ciao's regardless.

All are welcome in the Church of Ciao.

Members are encouraged to make a pilgrimage to Italy as often as possible to practice their new religion in it's homeland.

PG Tip: The Perfect Cocktail for Summer - The Sgroppino

This is the drink that will have you and your guests feeling ripe and ready for any Festa that lies ahead.

What's great about this drink is that
1) It's so, so easy to make - even if you are a bit tipsy already
2) It's unbelievably refreshing.

To make:
Step 1.  Pour 1 x bottle Prosecco into a jug
Step 2.  Add 5 x scoops Lemon Sorbet into the jug (1 scoop for every glass)
Step 3.  Blend - this can be done with a blender or even just a wooden spoon

To serve:
Chilled glasses only.  No plastic.

To wear:
As ever, something fabulous.  This drink deserves to be enjoyed with a sprinkle of bling.  Show some respect and glam up just a smidge.

To note:
Try not to get the name of this drink, Sgroppino, confused with a similar sounding italian word - Pompino.  This could get you into alot of trouble/fun (whichever way you want to look at it).

Saluti. X

Meal times are a great opportunity to give and receive love. Why just have a pepperoni when you can have amore!

2. Flirt with everyone.

3. Learn the word 'Yes' in every language. Use it often.
