Those of you who are regular followers of my blog may remember the serendipitous reunion between me and a fellow blogger. Roz, of La Bella Vita, commented on my blog one day, which lead me to hers. I was immediately awed by all her marvelous food, gorgeous photography and especially her kind heart. She had oodles of fans and followers, and I knew I’d be back. She mentioned in her bio she was from Iowa…well, what the heck, so was I. Then I learned she was 100% Italian…hmmmm…and her photo resembled a friend from my hometown, Kelly. I just had to ask. Yup, she was the older sister of one of my dear friends since childhood. Roz was the beautiful, mysterious, popular older sister who we only knew by the portrait in their family room…she was busy with high school activities while we were still immature and squirrelly.
After we reconnected, I reminded Roz that Kelly and I took a college road trip to St. Louis one weekend and were treated to one of her home cooked, gourmet dinners. I’m still hoping we’ll be able to meet again in person. Roz did a guest post for me this summer when we were in France, so I was delighted to reciprocate when she made plans to travel abroad with her parents this fall. Such a thrill. I had to bake up something both beautiful and delicious…so to pop over to La Bella Vita or her new WP site to see the details. She is also doing an amazing giveaway…another enticement to visit!!!
