Manami has entered this in one of the cake decorating sections of the Show. As you can imagine, she spent hours on it. We have our fingers crossed that it will be put on display and win her a blue ribbon! The Show opens on April 5.
Time continues to fly by. On Friday, Christabel, the daughter of my Finnish friend and her Australian husband, came for the day with her aunt from Newcastle. (You may remember I mentioned her arrival in Australia some months ago.) It was a wonderful day - we talked and talked and I will start skyping her mother to keep in closer touch. It was quite an experience meeting Christabel, as she hadn't even been born when I knew her parents! (They were in my French class in a town in the Hunter Valley.) Finland has a population of only 5 million. It's hard for me to conceive of such a small number of people way up near Santa Claus Land, all speaking a strange language! Of course, Christabel's English is wonderful.

It's a winner - just give her the cup now. 'I don't know how anyone can be so clever' said my lovely grandaughter. xxx
