Every year it seems like we get a whiff of a potential Spice Girls reunion, and now it’s apparently even closer to becoming reality.

Emma Bunton, aka Baby Spice, posted a photo to Instagram on Friday featuring all five members of the group, marking the first time in six years that they’ve all been photographed together. Her assertion that the “future is looking spicy” hints that the group might be working on something new—perhaps Spice World 2?

A recent report claims the group might have gotten back together for non-musical purposes. Victoria Beckham, aka Posh Spice, was reportedly the last hold out for a reunion but has asked that singing not be part of it, according to the Sun. She posted the photo as well, adding that #friendshipneverends.

In a statement to Entertainment Weekly via Beckham’s publicist, it seems all but certain a reunion of some kind is happening:
