Drew Barrymore planning Italian summer cooking adventure

Drew Barrymore is getting very serious about her cooking skills - she is planning a trip to Italy this summer (14) to perfect her pasta dishes.

The actress has just returned from a culinary trip to Napa Valley in California with pal Reese Witherspoon and now she's planning an overseas adventure to feast on fine Italian cuisine.

She says, "I love cooking. I like pastas and soups. I am going to Italy to go to this cooking school this summer."

During their recent girls' trip up the California coast, Barrymore and Witherspoon took classes at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena.
