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.

Australia Day 2022

Happy Australia Day ! 

We are happy to be here surrounded by some good friends, many birds and animals and so much beauty. A dedicated gardener with the National symbols is a fitting tribute to the day. No parked cars this time. 

It's a little different this year, overcast and quite rainy with La Nina but the garden is loving it and we are enjoying the cooler nights and watching so much good tennis. It's been a slower and more insular start to the year because of Omicron but we are hoping the tide is turning and the pandemic will become endemic and will soon be forgotten, though plenty of lessons will need to be taken from it. The Radio Station has moved to new premises and while still beset by many problems and costs I am confident it will resume community broadcasting and live programming before too long. 

Yesterday I met a friend for lunch to finalise the gardening programme for 2022 and next to us two ladies left their bags as they strolled into the cafe to order. This is Oz. 

Brisbane City Council has done us proud starting the new year by planting many trees in our street and the adjoining one. We have a Golden Penda outside our home and cant wait to see how it will grow. 

Meanwhile in the neighbourhood I love to see the escapees (not the convict ones) as they are so beautiful.




Hubby woke up and wondered how the worms he transplanted into the box window outside our bedroom were enjoying their new home. We love our view, we hope they will too.  


Happy Australia Day 2022.
