When I started blogging in May 2011 I was not sure I could do it ever. It used to be a lonely world and I always wondered if anyone read it all. Slowly day by day - comments started coming in, then made friends,the facebook groups happened - made some more friends and we are all today linked by a common factor which is " we are all foodies". And I have picked each one of them here because they have visited my page and dropped a comment - girls ! I can't tell you how encouraging every comment from you means to me..thank you with all my heart.
