Time for another round up of great posts. You know I’m always trolling the blogosphere and when I find interesting sites and must-read posts, I bring ’em back here for you to enjoy.
Sites I Love:
Bell’alimento:
First, and of primary importance, is bell’alimento.com
This is a fledgling foodie blog that my bestie from the ol’ Aviano days launched this past month. You’ll find all kinds of mouth-watering recipes to try, and I can vouch that they will not disappoint. I love them all and have been privy to some that are forthcoming. You will certainly want to watch for the Garlic Lime Roast Chicken and Creamy Banana Pudding. Of those already available, you need to add Asparagus alla Paper Bag, Spaghetti alla Carbonara, and Eggplant al Forno to your menu rotation.
Worthy to Note: She’s on Twitter and Facebook.
Ok . . . on to the fabulous posts.
