And the winner for an all-expense trip to L.A. from Bertolli Foods is...

If it's all right with you, I am not going to do the suspense thing. I numbered the comments - allowing for one comment per person per day - put check marks by those who could actually go - went to the Randon Integer Generator.... listened to the drum roll in my head.....




... and it's fate. Whether I went across or down, Pat from Mille Fiori Favoriti is going on an all-expense culinary tour in L.A. from Bertolli Foods! Congrats Pat! What a glorious few days we will have. Please e-mail me by noon on Friday, May 7th so arrangements can be made. (Otherwise - sob - I need to pick an alternate). Thank-you Bertolli for such an exciting time! Please visit Pat's glorious NYC blog and discover hidden treasures in the Big Apple.

    Congratulations to Pat - I'd not been able to play the videos, every time I went to read the posts I was in a place where I could not watch videos, so I've some catching up to do.

    This trip sounds like such a special treat - cannot wait to hear about the trip on your return
