City Air !
I have been on a trip to Stockholm .... stayed with an old friend from Myconos , so nice to be together with her again for a week .. also seeing some other old friends , one of my aunts & Agneta who used to be a happy guest at Gramma , but the real reason for my trip , was a delayed acupuncture treatment at dr. Nie , now I am so pleased .. and feeling great , full of energy , mischief and a little naughty ... in other words ready to bring on the spring , new cooking projects , ideas and much, much more !!
It never goes the way I want ..... I thought that I would go to London for some days , now in March , well in my wildest dreams , it seems like .... my daughter will do 1 month internship , in the kitchen at Elystan Street , a Michelin starred restaurant in Chelsea , it will be .. but not in March ... probably after the summer , and by the way .. we are also looking for a room for her in London ... so if anybody knows something small and affordable , like to share an appartment with others please let me know !
There has been a lot of coffes and talking , not so much eating , no cooking and hardly any shopping ... during this week in the city where I was a teenager , well that was " some " years ago , and since I have been living on islands more than half of my life .. I must say that I do not belong in Stockholm anymore , Athens is more close to me & my life now !!
But I managed anyway to go to the little restaurant Centan Bagis , the place that I was so interested in, to check out ... in the company of Suzie & Lena , 3 old friends from Myconos chatting with a glass of Prosecco in our hands ...and we decided on Skrei Cod it is in season just now ....served with beet roots , and yes they did deliver .. but just ...
I have a recipe for you from evergreenkitchen.ca that interests me and I had in mind to do it in Suzies house .. but I was treated like a princess ... food on the table if I wanted , yes lovely , so I will probably have a go on this recipe during the weekend .....but of course home made hummus & mayo !!
I have a picture in my mind . of this plate and I think that it could be a crowd pleaser and the colors ... wow , I will do it tomorrow , it suits me fine like a Sunday brunch side dish .. good luck to all of us with that !
Irida , my daughter just told me that she has started to go to the gym in Athens , it made me to feel lazy ... but I am doing a lot of walking and my yoga , well we are all brain washed with all the health business , and me probably more than others ... dear god .. maybe it is time to light up a Camel and have some gin/tonics for a change ...
Anyway we should be singing and dancing a lot , according to a new study on alzheimers and dementia ... so better start immediatly !
It is 5.30 pm and still light , well , kind of ... outside , if that does not make one happy I dont know what ?
I am trying to rev up myself with some music from the Doors at the moment ... so be your best and most of all be kind ... and walk your path confidently , with no apologies ... and the right people will join you ...
