I love this quote from John Lennon and it's another great reminder to enjoy the journey. I have reached a point where I need to take a break from writing Bella Bella Vita as I have other commitments that require my attention. It was not an easy decision to make, but it is the right one for now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I would like to thank everyone for reading my blog over the past 14 months and for all of your kind comments and feedback. You've made this a wonderful journey for me. Please stay tuned ... Bella Bella Vita will return!</div>

I love Elaine Cory's beautiful floral paintings. The vibrant colors and layers of texture add wonderful depth to each one. They would be a cheery addition to any room!<br />
<br />
Elaine has a shop on Etsy called <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ElainesHeartsong?ref=l2-shopheader-name" target="_blank">Elaine's Heart Song</a> where she sells her paintings in a variety of sizes. She also accepts commissioned work. Be sure to visit her Etsy shop to see her many more wonderful works of art!<br />
<br />
Thank you for inspiring me today Elaine!<br />

I have a year-round obsession with corn and am loving these corn cakes as a fun side dish for summer. They're like sneaking in a little breakfast in with dinner! <br />
<br />
I love the endless corn cake combinations one can create and the dollop of greek yogurt or sour cream is the icing on the (corn) cake. Sharing some great recipes from some of my favorite sites - enjoy!<br />

I'm loving these wonderful grain salad recipes for summer! They're all light, full of flavor and are gorgeous on the plate. These salads are perfect as a side dish or a main course with the addition of a protein. I'll be grilling some shrimp ... how about you? Enjoy!</div>

I am completely smitten with Kelly Steven's dog illustrations on antiquarian dictionary prints from the 1830's. I would love to fill an entire wall with them in my home. She captures delightful expressions of each dog and they are so sweet and whimsical. Each one makes me smile!</div>

I'm loving these wonderful sea creature rope toys from Jax & Bones and Harry Barker. These toys are all available online ... just click on the photos to go to the website. They're a fun way to start off the summer playing with the pups. It's a tough call, but I think Elton the Octopus is my favorite!<br />

What could be more dreamy than a banana split cake! Fewer things remind me of my summers growing up than going to Dairy Queen for banana splits. I even used to collect the long plastic spoons that came with them. The idea of making a cake incorporating all of the yummy ingredients of a banana split is so fun and what a show stopper!</div>

<span style="text-align: center;">It's strawberry time again! My mother's birthday was yesterday and her mother always made her a strawberry pie to celebrate. </span>Happy Birthday Mom! I prefer cake over pie and will never pass on strawberry shortcake with whipped cream frosting!<br />
<br />
My all-time favorite strawberry dessert is Wolfgang Puck's Kaiserschmarren. It's positively heavenly! Sharing some wonderful strawberry dessert recipes today ... just click on the photo to see each recipe. Enjoy!<br />
