<title>Frances Rivetti: Off The Cuff: Photo Album</title>
<link>http://rivetti.petaluma360.com/</link>
<description><![CDATA[Frances Rivetti scribbles daily on-line and for a variety of magazines, periodicals and newspapers throughout Northern California wine country and beyond. Trained as a general news reporter in rural Cambridgeshire, England, back in the late 80s, she duly discovered a very personal preference for uncovering the peculiarities of daily life over the deliverance of scandal and scoop. With some twenty plus years of international freelance &apos;lifestyle&apos; journalism and public relations shaping the way she looks at community life, this long-time British American is deeply rooted along the edge of rural West Petaluma, juggling the daily adventures of her three school aged sons, antics of a hobby winemaker husband, wine country cooking and catering to a unruly menagerie of assorted family pets. &apos;Off the Cuff&apos; is Rivetti blogging in her own backyard!]]></description>
