I love the ultimate style icon that is Sophia Loren so I was most excited to discover the VERY 70′s cook book: Cucina con Amore by Sophia Loren. Originally published in 1971.

Personally I don’t give a flying fuck about the cooking BUT the images are AMAZING. Feast your eyes below.

    Those salad servers are fabulous! I would need an awfully big salad, though….

    Those giant wooden utensils were a staple in most every 70′s household. Great post. Plus, Sophia was SUPER hot!!

    I hosted a dinner party a few months back and used that pic of her with the giant utensils as my invite. Awesome.

    Funny you should mention it. Got a copy from my father. Some amazing photos and also a pretty good pasta pomodoro receipe in there. http://www.flickr.com/photos/andershansen/3177135515/in/photostream/
