    Gyros

    Gyros

    We had some friends coming over so we decided to try and make home-made Gyros. Marinated the lamb all day and made Tzatziki sauce from scratch. Never having been to Greece (unfortunately) we weren't sure how authentic they were, but they did taste great. Potential apologies to all our Greek friends....

    Home-made pizza

    Home-made pizza

    When good friends come over, we don't feel the need to always get fancy. Just some dough, a thin layer of Parmesan/Ranch dressing, some spinach, some cut-up roasted chicken, with some Mozzarella melted on top. Top off with a beer!

    Shades of "Spanky and Our Gang"

    Shades of "Spanky and Our Gang"

    A series of comedy shorts in the 1920's and 1930's called "Our Gang" involved Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat, Darla and others (including Pete, the dog). One episode was "The He-man Womun Haters Club," so I was surprised to see a chapter in a nearby village.
