About Me
- Welshcakes Limoncello
- Modica, Sicily, Italy
- I'm a sort-of retired language teacher from Cardiff, Wales, UK, now trying to make a new life in Sicily. I'm not growing vines, making olive oil or restoring a palace stone by stone!

Regarding your dream of visiting Mendocino:
1. It is just a few hours by car from San Francisco, close to Napa/Sonoma, foodie heaven, on a beautiful stretch of coastline.
2. We, hubby and I get down to Napa once or twice a year, for sun, for food, for long drives.
3. When you are ready to take the plunge, drop me a line, and with any luck, we can meet you in San Francisco and give you a grand tour, including the northern coast of California, and southern Oregon where we live.
p.s. Mendocino is on the coast, cool and temperate most of the time.
This reminds me of two ladies and a frog.
"Kiss me" says the frog, "and I shall fulfil all your wishes. I am a spellbound investment banker."
One of the lady picking up the frog and putting him into her bag.
Asks the friend: "Hey, why don't you kiss him?"
Says she: Ah, in these times a speaking frog might be worth more than an investment banker."
Thanks for the info, Rosaria and that is very kind of you and hubby. It is a dream and I don't think I'll realise it for many years - if ever! Hi, Sean. Thanks for cheering me up. I think the frog would be better company too!
