“Heartwarming and deliciously comforting.” – Stanley Tucci

Pasta Grannies: Comfort Cooking is a joyful celebration of Italian home cooking, filled with recipes and stories from the remarkable nonne who have inspired millions online. Vicky Bennison, author of the bestselling Pasta Grannies cookbook, returns with even more soul-warming dishes, heartening stories, and authentic pasta-making wisdom passed down through generations.

This collection invites you into the kitchens of Italy’s grandmothers — women who have spent a lifetime cooking for the people they love. Discover how comfort, connection, and tradition come together in dishes shaped by landscape, seasons and family history.

Inside, you’ll find:

Pina (91) and her chestnut gnocchi with walnut pesto, made from ingredients grown around her Ligurian home
Marietta (99) and her Calabrian tagliatelle — a “recipe” inspired by her garden and the seasons
A generous variety of pasta dishes plus meat, seafood, vegetable recipes, pizzas, pastries, pies, rice dishes, pulses, dairy, herbs, nuts and spices

Every recipe includes a QR code that links directly to a YouTube video of the featured nonna, demonstrating her technique and sharing her story. With stunning location photography, step-by-step pasta guidance, and deeply personal glimpses into Italian life, this cookbook is both a practical kitchen companion and a celebration of slow, thoughtful, deeply loving cooking.

The Vintage Burel Factory Merino Wool Blanket: Where Heritage Meets Home

Step into a legacy of comfort and artistry. The Vintage Burel Factory Blanket isn't just made; it's lovingly brought to life. Using time-honored techniques and the planet's finest merino wool, we create a functional heirloom that tells a story. This blanket is the culmination of heritage craftsmanship, superior materials, and a timeless design destined to become the centerpiece of your decor.

Key Features & Benefits

Unmatched Craftsmanship: Witness the beauty of tradition. Each blanket is woven on authentic, ancient looms, a process that ensures unique texture and character impossible to replicate with modern machinery. This is a direct link to a rich artisanal history.
The Finest Merino Wool: Experience the luxury of 100% natural merino wool fibers. Renowned for being exceptionally soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating, it provides cozy warmth in the winter and cool comfort in the summer without ever feeling heavy or itchy.
Hand-Finished Perfection: Embracing the human touch, every blanket receives its final finishing by hand. This means slight variations in the weave and pattern, ensuring your blanket is a truly one-of-a-kind piece of functional art.
Timeless Vintage Aesthetic: The classic pattern is designed to transcend fleeting trends. It adds a layer of sophistication and warmth to any room—drape it over a sofa, layer it at the foot of your bed, or display it as a wall hanging for an instantly elevated and cozy ambiance.
An Heirloom for the Future: We believe in sustainable, slow fashion for the home. This blanket is built to last for decades, not seasons. It’s an investment in quality, ethics, and style—a piece you’ll cherish and pass down through your family.
