Photo of the Day


No great recipes today. I wanted to share this photo sent to me by one of my good friends whom I travelled with for 2 weeks on mainland Greece a couple of years ago. We travelled with Astra Tours just the 5 of us...a life changing experience hiking to ancient monasteries and trekking ancient trails. I was there for 5 weeks total. The sisters just spent a few weeks on the islands with another small group. My friend took this photo on the island of Tinos outside a convent....She thought I would enjoy it because it is food related...they know me so well....I would have loved to have been there ladies!!!!

  16. You changed your blog header! Very Nice! I enjoyed looking at the photos in this post. I enlarged them so I could see all those lovely goodies up close! I love the atmosphere in this photo, too. The white washed buildings with that beautiful arched entry way. I love being able to travel vicariously like this!
