Looks scrummy! Might have to try my hand at these one day... Hmm, cooking is not my forte unfortunately!

Hey, I thought I'd replied to you already about the portrait but turns out I had replied to 'noreply', whoops! Anyway, you can just email me a pic at stafish6(at)hotmail(dot)com. Also, the portraits are small (photo size), is that what you're after? Happy to do a little bigger if you want but it would cost a little more...

Oh, I better get drawing for Frith, I can't get behind in my challenge on the second week!
