Last Monday I attended my second party in two days, this time a meeting of the "foreign legion" of women from other lands living in Modica and Ragusa. It's just an excuse for a get-together, really and there are many more foreign women than this living here. But any meeting of cultures in a friendly spirit has to be a good thing and at these gatherings ideas are exchanged, new contacts are made and people who were perhaps feeling lonely learn that others have gone through that "culture shock" phase and are on hand to help.
Here are some of us. [I can't stop wearing my "Marilyn" jumper because it is so soft and warm!]
I forgot to charge my camera and also left my phone at home but here's a sample of the many cakes on offer. They were hard to resist so I didn't.
How lovely to have such an extended family around. Where are they all from?

ReplyDeleteHi, Lakeviewer. England, Wales, Scotland, Madagascar, Germany, Denmark, Spain, Argentina, China, Japan... and other countries I can't think of at the moment. Hi, jams. Yes, they were lovely cakes. Hi, Sally. I think that's probably true. And it was, Cherie!
ReplyDeleteGreat cakes!
ReplyDeleteCakes aren't meant to be resisted, so I'm glad you enjoyed! Looks like a great time.
ReplyDeleteHi, WW and Dragonstar. Yes, both the cakes and the company were great.
