Valeria…you probably don’t remember me. I am the niece of Jesse’s grandmother Dart. We met briefly many years ago here in the states.

A former art teacher, artist and photographer, I just wanted to reach out to you to tell you how much I appreciate your writing and photography.

I had the great pleasure of traveling to Sorrento and surrounding area this past October. I do still enjoy your cookbook. I just wanted to reach out to encourage you to keep writing and using your photography skills. They are appreciated.❤️

Hi Valeria Beautiful writing as always and at present it resonates deeply, as due to stomach pain, I have been unable to eat anything over the last month, other than clear soup and a little pasta. While I await results of a CT Scan.

My doctors remind me much of your ‘repair man’ seeing no urgency but also tell me not to eat solid food or at best any fibre and will get back to me, when they can.

So part of the life I enjoy so much has disembarked for now, although I do try to be inventive with my soups!

Also feeling so unwell, and not wanting to burden others, leaves me rather like a boat drifting across the lagoon, excuse the metaphor, waiting to pass a similar vessel or to reach a safe haven of peace and tranquility.

So thank you so much for sharing sweet soul and May we both enjoy a feast of flavours in wonderful company, yet return to a place of comfort within ourselves where contentment prevails.
