ReplyDeleteThanks Janice, have fun!
DeleteWhat a gorgeous post Jac!! Such a lovely idea to profile us and a recipe from our blog! I'm truly honoured. And feeling very guilty I haven't had a chance to do the same to all you lovely peeps back....but your time will come when I get moved to the Uk and my new Eat Your Veg site up and running :) Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to your new blog Louisa, but don't worry we all know you are in the middle of a move!
DeleteThanks so much for the lovely mention Jac (and for providing the helpful pronunciation tip - mine can be a tricky name for people to get to grips with :) )
ReplyDeleteHaha, I had to look it up myself, cause I couldn't remember. It's lovely once you work out how to pronounce it :)
DeleteI have loads of tabs open now as I have wanted to meet new bloggers for a while now - thanks for all the links :)
ReplyDeleteThey are a great bunch Tandy. Wonderful blogs and such nice people too!
DeleteHey Jac,
ReplyDeleteI've been reading all your FBC posts and have found them really useful. I couldn't afford to go (and was away anyway) so I'm incredibly greatful that you've taken the time to write such clear posts. I've bookmarked nearly every one.
Thanks for that Gill, that makes it totally worth it for me :)
DeleteThanks for the mention - was great to meet you. Its just brilliant you managed to cover so much with all these posts - so helpful for those at, and not at the event. Especially since there was so much to take in!
ReplyDeleteThat's ok Ceri. It was nice to meet you too. You worked hard over the weekend!
DeleteHi Jaq,lovely post,Thank you so much for the mention. FBC'5 was such a lovely time and connecting with you and the other lovely bloggers has been a great journey.X
ReplyDeleteCheers for the mention Jac, I've been exploring your FBC5 posts, they really sum up the weekend well!
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely to meet you!
Another nice post Jac for those of us unable to make FBC. CT and I went over to visit Hedgecomber yesterday. We both enjoyed the visit and it's really nice to know about another food blogger close by, so thank you for putting her in touch with me :)
