Just got back from my first trip to Paris. Whenever I take a trip, I like to bring home something special. Didn't plan well as I would have like for Paris - ended up with some tapestry to make pillows, a cheap t-shirt, and some decent perfurme. My first trip to Italy is in the fall. What should I look for to find that special treat?

If going to the Amalfi Coast, some great limoncello and some fabulous ceramics.

i have some good ideas---more so than paris. hahaha....there is a super thread on this also. try a search.

also..."foodies in italy" just posted that this month's bon appetitie is devoted to italy....

glass, ceramics, silk fabrics, leather accessories, leather jackets...
Where in Italy are you going?
