It’s wonderful when new friendships develop thanks to blogging, image particularly across continents and different divides.

I was thrilled to read Welshcakes latest post from Sicily telling us that James was visiting her from the Russian Federation. Simi has been sniffing him out cautiously and is anxious about losing her chair.

I think we can sense the mood of the moment by James’ comment:

"Sicily and Welshcakes are wonderful, in no particular order."

One thing is for sure, James won’t go hungry, knowing what a brilliant cook Welshcakes is. Her freezer will be well stocked up.

I wish you both a wonderful time together.
