Some opportunities arrive by chance, you have to be lucky enough to jump at them. It was like that when my friend Carlotta asked me to cook for a brunch organized by her and her girlfriend Sara in their store on the occasion of my visit to Italy. Well, you must know that the store of these girls is among my favorite around Florence.
