inspiration


I have taken the next few days off to bake.
It is here i am fluent (tho suspect i can't spell) Greek.
On my list is
baklava,
Kourambiethes,
karidopida,
Koulourakia.
I was able to make these only after the operation!
But my inspiration was/is my mom,
she, the old Greek baker, told me my baklava was the best she had eaten.
Since others said the same, it was not just the mother being proud of her son.

Maybe when semi retirement comes, you could have a web business for Greek pastries. Yumm...enjoy your time off.

Baklava is my FAVORITE. I always thought it was rather time consuming to make. I am jealous. If you have any extra you can ship me some to PA..I will always pay for great Greek food. Spinach pie, pastistio, and rice pudding are my favorites. I miss working for Greeks...Have fun holiday cooking...xoxo
