It All Comes Down To This

There it is, the top right corner. All I have left of the stitching is a little square of black cross stitches. And then the top stitching begins.


We are having a Greek potluck at a friends house tonight. The homeowner, Joyce, is making a Greek Salad as the main. Fran is making dessert. I am bringing appetizers or Meze. Unfortunately these women know me. "Don't bring too much." Sigh. It's so hard. I'm making taramasalta at Joyce's because she has tarama at her house from a previous attempt. Mine is different, made with blanched almonds instead of bread. And I'm making spanikopita because I like those and I'm not afraid of filo. Oh, and I decided to make a little eggplant appetizer. 
I know, too much. But there will be 6 of us, 2 men. Surely we don't want them to go away hungry!


If I would like to change any part of my brain, it would be that. Less can be more. No, really. I think. Maybe I should ask Adrian to make hummus. OK, just joking.

No, he didn't make hummus. It was REALLY good. I made the best spanikopita I've made. Why? Mint, ouzo, 3 kinds of cheese. Num. Also an eggplant salad. And the taramasalta was good, but I didn't grind the almonds fine enough.
Hummus would have been an appetizer too far.
