Diane’s Simple and Delish Baked Brie
Leading Lady Spotlight: Diane.
Diane is one of my mom’s best friends. She is an interior designer, and has the greatest sense of style, and the best wit and personality. My mom and her friends, Diane included, have an annual tradition of going on a “House Walk” in my hometown, each year after the house walk someone hosts the group for appetizers and wine. This year, I was invited to join, and since the Women of Windham were coming to my town, I offered up my home as the host home. Diane brought this fabulous, festive, easyyy, yet delicious dish to share. So enjoy this dish with your besties on a cozy winter evening. It pairs well with Oma’s Mulled Wine.
