My Big Fat NOT Greek Family

Remember our Portuguese night last month? Well this month, we had our Greek night, and let me tell you, I woke up FULL the next morning. It was delicious.

They had the Greek festival the night before, which my family of course went. (except Luis and I because we were working) It scared them a little because, well, lets just say that Greek food made in bulk is not so good. Dad jokes that our family cooks better Greek food than the Greek festival.

I made baklava. I had to. It was the whole reason I threw Greek into the hat. I love baklava. Though it was Luis turn to not like what we made. He said that the walnuts seemed sour. I am determined to make a version of baklava he likes (which is really just an excuse for me to make more!)

I don't really remember the names of what everyone else made, so bare with me.

Brent made my favorite dish. (baklava doesn't count) it was ground beef, mixed with Greek yogurt. and filled with feta. We all agreed that it would be a most delicious hamburger.

Spinach...Triangles? these were good. Uncle Ron and my cousin Katy "made" them (by made, I mean "bought at the store and threw in the oven") They were very good! Granny also came and made the same thing only they were filled with just cheese. Cant go wrong with that.

I know this is sideways, but blogger is not being very nice. Jill and Chris made the kabobs. And my mom made the pita bread filled with meat. (The name for it is on the tip of my tongue. grrrr) the Pita bread thing was very delicious. you put cucumbers tomatoes and something else (of which i did not use,) on top, and then she made some sort of cucumber dressing. I really liked the dressing. I took out the mean and just filled it with cucumbers and tomatoes and dressing. Delicious! Second favorite dish of the night.

Daddy made cabbage rolls. they were good until Brooke decided to tell me what the contents of it kinda looked like (I will spare you what she said in case you ever want to eat one) After that, I couldn't touch them. The really did taste good before that though

After dinner, everyone went outside. some people did a Greek dance (I was WAY too stuffed to participate) And Daddy and Mikey walked around holding a chair with their mouths (apparently they do that)

All in all, it was a wonderful night! Fun with family, and food. Cant wait for next month. Food from India!
