But what had Vardalos down was more personal. She couldn't have a baby.

"At the end of 'Connie and Carla' I was at the end of a 10-year infertility battle for me," says Vardalos, now 46. "I just retreated. I'm not one of those people who blabs out all her business. But my husband and I went through that, and I went away to grieve over that.

"And then when we were trying to adopt, it kept falling through so many times that it was even more painful.

"Finally, this wonderful 3-year-old girl walks in to our house. Yes, I did lose my mojo, and she helped me find it again."
