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.

Discoveries with Dougall 22 - Nooks and crannies, boats and banks

Its been a while since I took D for a walk. He had a sore knee so I refrained from taking him out until he was completely better - well yesterday he bounded out and how wonderful to walk once again in the neighbourhood to discover all its nooks and crannies - they are never ending.
On today's walk the addition of a new boat along the path - except this one is different as it is on land and is planted.
One of the banks exploding with Japanese sunflowers 
The beautiful screen produced by a neighbour who has shared his garden with the whole community. His recent additions are a boardwalk and a stream flowing below, as well as a doll house for everyone to share. Dougall loved exploring the area. I think this screen captures the beauty of real leaves and the light in a spectacular way.
 One of the coral trees, Erythrina (meaning Red in Greek) just beginning to flower along the path.
 Capturing the light on this garden of bloom 

And finally the golden shower tree, Indian laburnum or the pudding pipe tree
aren't they just the best names for a tree ? 
The days are wonderful and sunny, though the grey clouds occasionally roll in. We look to them for rain but often they move away and we are left disappointed. Never disappointed from our walks which are a joy.
