And some other new red flower I hadn't seen before... <br />Love the idea of Pollock's Green Phase.<br />Oh, interesting you like the new title idea! Someone else on Facebook liked it too. Hmm!<br />xxxJennifer Barclayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14791285838910091918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549687624161040763.post-18594980429020753352012-02-18T17:19:50.510+02:002012-02-18T17:19:50.510+02:00Hello!

And I love the idea of your Jackson Pollock kitchen afterwards. Reminds me of the time the blender top blew off while making broccoli soup (Pollock's Green Phase).<br />Book progress sounds very good and for what it's worth I love the new title idea!!! Bet you're busy fighting off the gushing praise right now - it's only right.<br />Tilos in winter looks pretty. We saw snowdrops this morning - beautiful. xxxAbbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13092008376513571783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549687624161040763.post-11974875451147370172012-02-15T10:05:07.302+02:002012-02-15T10:05:07.302+02:00Hi Bex!

And my friend's dad is a chef, apparently squid is the hardest thing to clean/cook - "Best left to the men" according to my friend's dad.<br /><br />Good luck with the book - I like the "No man is an Island" idea...the 'Honey' title reminds me too much of "Travels in Blood & Honey" by Elizabeth Gowing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08896832888635376002noreply@blogger.com
