Monteverde is a community full of talent, including my hostess's brother Paul, who is a painter, instrument maker, sculptor and viola player ; always looking for a trio or quartet to play with. Sometimes he comes over and plays with Margaret on the piano.
Her sister is also staying a while . Lorna is a potter whose work I have admired for many years. Lorna is also painting nearly every day whilst here.
Despite using at least 5 grapefruits and 2 sour oranges I only managed to get two jars of marmalade.....but is it ever good.
We took some more grapefruits from the garden to the local store. They were happy to have them.

The marmalade looks lovely! Glad you're having such a good time! I'm still jealous of where you are! :) x
