Hello welcome to my Blog

Mezze is widely served in the Greek and Middle eastern world. An assortment of little dishes and tasters which accompany a nice ouzo or a glass of wine. So when you read mezze moments you will have tasty snippets of life as I live it, India for four years and now Brisbane Australia, all served up with some Greek fervour and passion.

Paphos Love, Carobs and Coastlines

This is the final posting from our recent holiday - a short one with some magical photos to remind us to keep coming back, to lessen the trauma of the island's history and its recent record of inaction. To cry for the baby seal who bore the name of the goddess of love, Aphrodite,  that found an early death in fishing nets, and hope that immediate action is taken to ensure safe natural reserves are given to them. To wish Monica and her dogs all the very best in her relocation for the dog home and say to you all out there - dogs give unconditional love - so help her in her cause by donating here https://www.totalgiving.co.uk/appeal/buildahome

To remind ourselves, with some sisterly expertise, of all the rich history the island has to offer, the conquests, the ravages and the magnificent works of art be they in churches as painted frescoes or as mosaics or perched on hills with magnificent views below. To know that some, we hope, will stand the test of time and development, so that we can once more return to their tranquil setting.

Views from the Baths of Aphrodite over looking the Coastline.



Carob trees which were known as black gold for the molasses they produce.


The baths of Aphrodite where she reputedly bathed.
