My 2006 Birthday Party!
It was that time of the year again…November 17… Yes! It was my birthday and this time it was a milestone birthday as you might know already… 30 years… So I decided to have a party this time and we had tones of fun but not that many photos…
You know how I usually like to cook and do tones of food that is left over for the next day and we end up eating it for two weeks? This time I tried not to go down that road and generally spend less time in the kitchen. I said I tried! OK, I ordered some kabobs from an Armenian place that makes really good stuff and I said "I’m going to make some salad and some finger food". I said and I truly believed it, but when the time had come I realized that the food I was preparing was more demanding than I thought. I could have chosen, for example, to make some mousaka and it would have been much easier! Instead I chose to make squash croquettes, eggplant croquettes and some mini cheese pies (tyropitakia), food that needs you to be all the time on your feet standing on top of it! Anyway the result was that by the time everybody arrived I was so freaking tired that after my first glass of wine I was already drunk! They were people in the house that I didn’t even remember talking to! So anyway, here are some photos from the party…
