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.

Corona credits and beauty to start this week.



First world Corona times.
Houses have never been cleaner.
Laundry is much reduced.
Dogs think it is doggie Xmas, they have so much attention. 
Beauty regimes down to the bare minimum and our bank balance is loving it. 
Meals are cooked with love, attention to detail, plenty of time and some innovation. 
The latest of the neighbourhood is rock melon chutney!
Friends in Lima going even further Margret de Canard ...
If you have spots - face masks do the trick. 
If you don't and aren't ill, leave them for those who need them. 
In- house wine tastings will be savoured and expertise will develop. 
"I taste blackberries with a hint of cinnamon and swirls of cherries". 
You can have a second glass if you are not sure and no one will mind. 
"Maybe it wasn't blackberries so much as logan berries with ..."
Weeds are corona- ed a new word entering the Shorter English dictionary this year. 
Birds song is bursting.
Butterflies abound. 
Nature unfolds untroubled and reassuringly day by day. 
The books by the bedside are being read. 
Partners are being discovered anew.
Families and friends are on the end of a phone, skype, whatsapp,
There is appreciation for health professionals, teachers and stay at home mums 
Comedy is alive and well and social distancing doesn't mind us spreading them around
My world is slowing down, getting cleaner, reviving, innovating and adapting. 
We need to hang on in there with clean hands, at least until November to see Trump gone.
