With her hobbies of painting and photography, painting and photographing, in particular, cats, she is an expert in cooking. In 1982, together with her husband Giorgio Aldrighetti, she published La cucina chioggiotta, tradizioni e curiosità nell'800, the first historical-scientific research ever carried out on the customs and gastronomic recipes of the Chioggia area. This publication, included in the essential bibliography of several specialist works, was carried out in the almost total absence of written testimony. It was therefore a work of research and listening, transcription and comparison, reworking and final drafting of the original recipes, a work that has continued to the present day, thus avoiding the loss of a not secondary part of the history of the Chioggia community.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiorgio Aldrighetti, from a Trentino family, was born and lives in Chioggia. A scholar of heraldry and local history, for several years he was head of the culture office of the municipality of Chioggia. He is responsible for the historical-heraldic investigations for the recognition, by decree of the President of the Republic, of the insignia of the cities of Venice and Chioggia and of the province of Venice. He also curated the conception, blazoning and exegesis of numerous ecclesiastical coats of arms, among which we recall that of Card. Angelo Scola, Patriarch of Venice, of Card. Giovanni Cheli and of Mons. Dino De Antoni, Metropolitan Archbishop of Gorizia.
