Until recently, that was the only time I could get authentic Greek food. Fortunately, we now have two-three really good Greek restaurants available. I've even learned to make really good gyros...just not authentic, but really good.

What they don't know is sometimes just as healthy for them. I do like the taste of WW pasta most of the time, though.<br /><br />The few times I've had Greek food I've totally enjoyed it! The cheesy stuff in the phyllo dough is one of my faves, too...especially if it also has spinach in it.<br /><br />These years when your kids are in their later teens are so busy! Good for you to make sure you have family time in the midst of it all. The time does go too fast.<br /><br />Even though our kids are all grown, we also make the effort to have family days regularly - they are even more precious now that we do not at least live in the same house.<br /><br />Have a wonderful Easter celebration, Susanne!

It FEELS like it lasts forever.
