Melina's Smile


The theme is a solitary actress in the big city.  We ended up eating dinner at Scholarcheio and buying a really useful tray.

I do wish Mrs Nikos would stop pointing out blemishes in my keftedes

A perfect trio of dolma

    Please excuse Mrs Nikos, she is obviously suffering from keftedes envy.

  6. Does a bouzouki sound a bit zither-esque? I am sure I heard THAT theme when I clicked on the pic of the cat......

    You have obviously seen through my innocent front and picked up the subliminal message that meat balls are good for you.

    Well done and thanks for commenting, N

    Very good and well done on picking up the thread on Melina Mercouri who in fact jilted Nana Mouskouri and sang this classic song with her oh so gravelly voice. She probably ate meatballs too, as all the best Greek actors cum polticians do. The difference with Melina is she gave up her acting career to be a poltician whereas the rest of them combine the role.

    Happy seismology, N

  11. Dear Nikos:

    Women have been pointing at my keftides like that for years.

    I'm used to it.
