The stuff of weekends

The boys came to see us - young men to most of the world, and to our American cousins who pointed this out. We welcomed them with open arms, halloumotes and kixia, and set out to catch up on months of travel for each of them, one to Japan the other to America, their work and their social life. A weekend is clearly not enough but we packed in as much as we could over home cooked ribs. We met friends from Geneva days and explored the bank vaults of Donna Chang and the Bar in George St. 

Dougall is a part of my life and theirs so we borrowed him and headed out on Sunday for a walk - these photos are just reminders of how little is needed for a sense of well being, happiness and inner warmth. We hurried home to slow cooked lamb courtesy of http://melizskitchen.blogspot.com and some fresh steamed green beans. Before we knew it the weekend was over and we were dropping them off at the airport. At least their tummies were full. No greater joy for a Cypriot mum.
