Beer Roasted Baby Potatoes

Hello foodie friends.

So, how is everyone?  Is there anyone out there????  Yesterday, was really quite scary.   On a normal day, I would take Charlie out early in the morning.  But due to the circumstances I now take him out around 11 am.  So, this is what happened, I opened my front door, walked out and there was NO ONE on the streets.  I looked to my left then to my right and could not see ONE HUMAN BEING!!  I said to myself, well Sophie just pretend it’s August and everyone is on vacation, and that’s what I did.   At some point, I felt like I was the only person on the planet.  I think I must have looked over my shoulder maybe a dozen times.  This is wayyy too disturbing, not seeing anyone, not saying good morning, ohhhh I hope this ends soon.

In spite of everything that is going around us, I needed to take a break even if it’s only for 30 minutes to focus on something else. 🙂 

Alrighty, so the news of the week I finally found a YOGA class that I really like and it’s on youtube.  Yep, after doing a bit of research, and not finding anything close to me I decided to look on youtube.  I would have liked to find one class in my area so that I could socialize with other humans. But this is fine, I don’t mind. 🙂

I started a couple of days ago and I had an audience.  Charlie of course 🙂 now that was hysterical. Every time he would see me do a certain positive he would tilt his head from one side to the other.  My first lesson was more laughing at what Charlie was doing rather than focusing on the lesson.   I couldn’t help it, it was sooooo funny!!

I looked into my pantry and wanted to make a recipe with potatoes.  Simple, quick and very tasty…there was a while that I was so fed up with eating just potatoes and tomatoes.  This was due to veryyyy difficult times I was going through in my life back in 2010.  But lately, I have started to enjoy eating potatoes again, and the truth is that Greek Cuisine does have so many wonderful recipes with potatoes. 🙂  I hope you enjoy this one!! 

STAY SAFE – STAY HOME – WASH THOSE HANDS!!!

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie

    It is quite strange when there are no people out and about. With so many working from home social distancing is actually happening. This recipe came at the right time 💗 I will be making this later today. Stay safe and healthy Sophie!!

    Ooo I love tatties! I never would have thought of them beer-roasted. I had beer cooked chips before and they were lush so I’d like to try these. And as for the weirdness at the moment, you’re so right, it’s lovely and quiet but so strange not to see another soul outside. The online yoga is a fantastic idea. Give it a few days and Charlie won’t just have joined in, but he’ll be challenging you to a yogi competition!
    Stay safe & well lovely ♥

    I don’t blame you for being creeped out! We only go out on weekdays to avoid any crowds that may be around on the weekend, and it is so desolate out there! I am so glad you found a yoga class! You have been looking for so long 🧘🏻‍♀️maybe one day we can take the same live class 💕
