all i try to do is to make everybody aware that it is a way to eat healthy without spend a fortune. i am italian and for me food is a way of living. i dont eat because i need it i eat because i love food and i love cooking for the last 36 years. it's something inside that give me every day ideas on how to put ingridients together or how certain ingridients work well together and sometimes i love to share my ideas with others, that's why every so often i type a recipe on this forum.

guido

Hi Pat - yes, he does! I did post on here whilst you away flirting, drinking and generally making merry, that one evening he was cooking Kleftico to his own (unique!) recipe. Dee said, like yourself, that she too was jealous, as apparently Kev can't boil water!



Glad you had a good time and hopefully we can meet up later in the year - we're out again in late September/early October.



You have a good evening too!



Jean
