I guess it's a wee bit criminal. But I don't like spirits on their own and ginger isn't too bad with whisky.. <BR/>And thanks for your holiday wishes - I indeed have already few Christmas post ideas in mind.. <BR/><BR/>Clivia - you're my second reader with Estonian/Swedish connections (Anne being the first)! I'm sure you'll find kama in Haapsalu. And I promise to try filo soon - but this particular spanakopita must be made with puff pastry:)<BR/><BR/>Zsofi - thanks for convincing me to try to cook with filo pastry. Now that I've tackled macaroons, maybe it's time for filo indeed.<BR/>Did you ever have a chance to try the feta spinach frittatas? I remember you liked the idea when I wrote about them first..<BR/><BR/>Angelika - thanks for finding time to come to my blog despite of being so busy yourself! A big hug to you, too, in Vienna!<BR/><BR/>Joey - thanks! The first time I try a new recipe, I tend to follow it pretty closely. But usually there's some small changes every time, until I'm completely happy with the result. This one I haven't modified for the last few years already.<BR/>But what always amazes me is how you can give exactly the same recipe to a few different cooks, and although they all claim to do exactly as told in the recipe, they end up with a totally different final product.

And I agree with you that frozen spinach can never be compared to fresh, young baby leaf spinach from the market. What makes your blog so fascinating is that you are so polyglott, an Estonian living in Edinburgh making wonderful Greek dishes...

Funny stuff. The scotch recipe though....is that not a desecration of a fine scotch to mix with that wine? Hey if a Scot says it's cool, then I'm down with it...but personally I prefer my scotch with either water or soda.....good blog, I may try one of your recipes soon. Happy Holidays, one can only imagine the Christmas meal posting that's sure to show soon....PinFPAYNTERinFLORIDAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15954876261512592445noreply@blogger.com
