My name's Mary Tempesta. I was born and grew up in Sydney, Australia and I've been living in Italy for the past 16 years with my husband Sante and 2 sons..Alex,20 and Thomas, 13. We've lived in Denmark and Holland too...(but "I still call Australia home.")

I'm a cat-lover...I love everything about them. I love good food and preparing it...and... eating it too!

I try hard to be tidy but always end up with a mess again after a few days..doesn't bother me too much because I'm always able to find everything anyway! (ie. most of the time!) ... but it drives my husband crazy.
