the things I have eaten
I've had souse and pumpkin fritters and rice and peas.
I've had pancakes cooked in oil and sweet fresh passion fruit juice.
I've had flying fish with Delish.
I've had brown chicken stew and searched in the market for The S Bend hot sauce.
All this thanks to Vida.
And who did I just hear from?
And who will I see next week? VIDA.
I've spent weeks wishing I could go to our island and now someone from our island is coming to us.
I'll fetch her and we'll cook for HER.
I'm almost too excited for words.
Perhaps I will make her an orange cake.

I lie. I have eaten rice pudding. A good rice pudding is very delicious.
I am very happy about Vida. Vida looks gorgeous. Her smile stretches from you to Australia by the looks of it.
Then, I stopped in my tracks, oh my god, is Tuvalu a REAL island? All this time I thought it was a virtual one. Hmm...still not sure actually...
Vita looks so wonderful, and that food tastes so good (virtually speaking).
I'm so happy and excited for you!
I am glad you'll be seeing her soon. And maybe cook for her YOUR national dish (he he he)

Jealous of your trip - looks like it will be delightful.
Enjoy your guest.
reading the S Bend Sauce comments link, it seems that's the post where Paola found you!
And look what's come of that...
Food is our link to the world.
My motto has been "Never trust a skinny cook"
But Vida seems to defy the model. I love that she is persnickity about her brands.
