This is my first read of your blog and I am entranced. Want very much to visit Budapest ! Wonderful interview with Oz. Fab recipes and magical menu for the garden supper. Makes me miss British food at its best- full of garden goodies. Will be a regular reader !
Thanks Jeanette and thanks so much for the comment. I really appreciate it. x
