As we are entering the heart of fall and as schools have already started a month ago, so did colds and viruses. My son had two consecutive bad colds, the last of which left him with a bronchitis that has to be treated with antibiotics. Seems that the whole universe has conspired, so as for...

Polynesian Pork Roast
School has started here and along with this, my everyday suffering as well. Is it my imagination or the boys are –how can I put it in a more gentile manner- more abstract minded than girls? I mean, my son, although he has a brain that works really well, he goofs around and refuses to...
T.G.I. Friday’s Dijon Chicken Pasta
That was supposed to be a short break! Honestly, I had no intention of being away for such a long time. But life sometimes seems to really have other plans for us. This was a very hectic summer for me. First, of all my mom had a knee surgery and I had to look after...
Short Break
First of all I would like to thank all of you my friends for all your kind words of sympathy. Well, it seems that as you perfectly noted in your comments, when it rains it pours. I will have to take a small break from blogging. My mom’s knee needs a surgery and she will...
Green Salad with Sun-Dried Tomato Vinaigrette
Have you ever noticed that when one bad thing happens, then a series of other bad things follow? This has happened to me as well. After my father-in-law’s death my mother had a small accident in her knee and now her leg hurts very much. This means that she was and still is unable to...
Briam (Greek Ratatouille)
I am trying really hard the past few days to keep up with all of you and I know that I haven’t been much of a follower lately, but several circumstances have kept me from spending much time on the net. One such occasion is my son’s Name Day and his party. Here in Greece,...
Mascarpone Pots with Strawberries
I am officially back! After taking an obligatory break from blogging, I am back on air. All this period I was away from the net and I mean literally away from blogging, it was really weird. I had more time to do a few things I wasn’t able to do before, I can tell you...
Out of Order
I am sorry my friends but my laptop has crushed. Some very good people at my maintenance company are trying to backup my files so I won’t lose my files and photographs. They are telling me that they are in the process of retrieving all my files and they will set it up again. Thank...
Lasagna with Spinach
I don’t know about where you live, but the weather here does a lot of tricks lately. Just until couple of days ago it was chilly and rainy. It seems like winter is refusing to give its place to spring. I don’t know how you feel, but I really want some spring flavor here. I...
Green Salad with Catalina Dressing
I would like to thank you all for your words of sympathy regarding our recent loss. With all these things going on around here, unfortunately I didn’t have the chance to follow you as often as I wanted and also didn’t have the time to post about a tag. My fellow blogger Elisabeth from Food...
