Good Month – Kalo Mina

Written by Published on Updated on December 1, 2020 in Monthly Notes

 

 

Today is December 1st!!  What a year this has been!!!???  It has definitely been an emotional rollercoaster for all of us.  I am happy that this year is finally coming to an end, but I am curious to see what 2021 will bring.

I have decorated my home with Christmas decorations and have put up our tree.  The color scheme this year is Blue and Silver…:)  Blue and Silver is definitely something different but hey I mean everything else was different in 2020 why not change the color scheme for Christmas 2020.  🙂

 

Wishing everyone a wonderful Good, Healthy, and Safe Month.

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

    Do we get to see your gorgeous Christmas decor, Sophie? I’m so nosy! 😂
    It’ll be a year we’ll want to forget I think, but I still can’t believe how quickly time is disappearing. Yikes. Christmas tree has just gone up though and it feels a little more festive already, as I’m sure you agree with yours too. xx
