Sicilian cannoli is the best dessert on Earth in my humble, Sicilian opinion. It's easy to make, absolutely delicious, and everybody loves it. 

My Mom's grandparents originally came from Sicily and this recipe is straight from our family's cook book. I've made it at least a hundred times over the years. 

Even after visiting Sicily I think our cannoli filling is the very best. Get those store bought shells and focus on the filling. Mangia!

Fav 5 Travel Guides are a short list of the best things I've found to do, see, eat, or drink in a particular location. This guide is for Palermo, the city located on the Italian island of Sicily.

Look no further for more posts about International Travel and guides for Rome and Naples, Italy.

In 2014 my husband and I took our honeymoon trip to Italy and Ireland. We started in Rome, journeyed through Naples, then took a ferry boat to Sicily. This Travel Guide will take you to the Sicilian city of Palermo. 

My family originated from a nearby town which we didn't visit on this trip. Being in Sicily was amazing and so special for me. It was hotter than hell when we visited in August and we loved the vibe of the island of Sicily. The rumors that Sicily is not like mainland Italy are totally true, from what we saw! We loved the food, the sweets, and the adventure best.
