St. Euphrosynos Taverna and Ouzeri 23

Today was very windy, and we were coming out of the cafe from breakfast, and a huge gust of wind came along and we got a bunch of pine needles blown onto our faces. Not pleasant. Then we left and went back to the Tallac area, and the Pope Estate, and had a great time, made more wonderful pictures. Then we went to the look out point for Emerald Bay so I could get more pictures since my telephoto acted up last time. and it snowed on us! I'm fweezin' !!!

The snow didn't stick, though.

it's good stuff...esp. with a little sour cream...

Or a lot of sour cream.

And black bread.

not really...pumernickel has this smell that I just can't get past...black bread not so much...

Same here. Is it a way to sneak beets into my kid's meal?

I wouldn't know because I've apparently never had proper borsch.

I love pumpernickel bread. I love it for toast in the mornings. We have a restaurant in our area that serves bread that is dark brown, is rather sweet, and definitely is not pumpernickel. I don't know what it is, but will maybe ask next time we are there.

I actually found a bar in Pittsburgh that serves Dogfishhead 60 Minute and 90 Minute IPA's on tap on a regular basis! WOOHOO!

It's probably malted bread you're having there. There's generally a lot of syrup in malted bread so it's sweet and sometimes a bit gooey. I must say I make a mean loaf of it, but I drag the malt with me from Finland. Still trying to find a place here that carries similar.

Gaitanaros has a few more on youtube. I love the engomia but I always have to look away when I listen to gaitanaros because watching his facial expressions bothers me.

Yeah, this bar has about 30 diff high quality brews on tap. I would take me ages to sample everything they have on tap, and alot of it is stuff that I highly recommend!

I'm reading a book for one of my classes, and I took three pages of notes on the eight-page introduction. I have 40 more pages to read... at this rate I'm going to be up all night!

Anyone up for a mudslide, Michael style? The only vodka I have in my house is Three Olives Cherry Vodka, which doesn't work with a mudslide. I know, I can hear Fr. Vasily right now: "What no vodka in house? Was it no vodka in house in 19th century Russia? IS OUTRAGE!!!" So, I made the mudslide using Breyers Vanillabean icecream, Baileys Irish Cream, Kahlua, and Frangelico. YUM!

 

[Andrea Elizabeth]

Billy Joel's "Goodnight my Angel" from my new Essentials album is going through my head - I guess it's late enough to say that to yall. This will probably my only post today. My health is going to slip again!

The boxed set "My Lives" is totally awesome, if you like Billy Joel! I got it this summer and highly recommend it!

I can't tell you just how yummy it is!

They have a kind of honey wheat bread here that bears a visual resemblance to pumpernickel. It might be what you're looking for, but I've never had it, so I can't tell you if it's sweet or not.
