grape jam from Pico

the blogging world is a "crazy" thing! A few days ago, I got an email from a nice lady from Pico, a small Azores island. Not only that Maria wanted to adopt a guardian angel, she had come across my blog and read in an earlier post that I love jam (especially Shula´s Australian plum jam). She told me that her mother makes delicious jam from grapes and asked me if I would like to try it. I never had grape jam before, so who could resist this generous offer? Not me.

And so, only a few days later the postman rang and brought me a package from Pico. Isn´t that sweet? From left to the right: a set of bookmarks made by the gorgeous Ana Ventura, a lovely selfmade potholder, then the world´s best grape jam (really!, it´s so hmmmmm) and many informations about Pico, which must be a paradisiac volcanic island. I am so happy. Thank you so much Maria! You made my weekend! Yours, Friederike!

Also a short update to "Germany`s next Top Doll Contest". If you haven´t done so already ... you can cast your vote until Friday 6th of April). After some occurences between the girls, I´m considering to give the contest a new name.... "Germany´s next Drama Queen". Must think of that...
