THANK YOU JAMIE!


Our Easter dinner this year was inspired by an episode of Jamie Oliver's new food escapes series - this one in Greece.

Sometimes it's fun to do a huge family buffet, groaning with the 30 different things that all the relatives contributed.

But sometimes it's nice to concentrate on just two or three things - things that will make you moan with their deliciousness.

Almond paste, chopped almonds, almond extract and Amaretto, all in one chewy, macaroon-like cookie?  What's not to love?

SMS: It tasted every bit as good as it looks. My son marinated the pork and made the tzatziki sauce for the kebabs, dear daughter made the Greek salad and the yummy cookies,hubby did the grillin', and all I had to do was char the peppers, heat the bread, and set the table. My easiest holiday dinner ever!
