manousina :«A year ago I started posting my recipes after the encouragement of an old friend. She had warned me that it might take a longlong time until somebody would visit my blog-house… so you can imagine my enthusiasm when I saw the first comments and followers! To my surprisethere were people reading my posts! I gradually bacame a member of a large group who share the passion of cooking! I have met nice people, Ihave learnt many new things. On this journey my sister Lenia has joined me and has made the blog bilingual.

I would like to thank my husband for his patience and tolerance! He knows now that he can’t eat unless the shooting is over, he can’t touch anything, unless he gets my nod!

Of course I would like to thank each one of you for the support and your sweet comments! I hope that I will have the chance to meet more blog-friends in the future!!!
