In this particular scene, Aunt Voula exclaims “What do you mean you don’t eat no meat…. that’s ok, I make lamb …”.

Hello my foodie friends!Among my “many talents” is the natural ability to tell a good story. Many of my stories are from my parents, relatives and siblings and are based on gatherings of family events that have occurred over the years.

Family stories are a collection of tales about people, places, and events related to your family and your ancestors.

Fox quote, I realize we have learned so much at the dinner table and shared everything from how our day went to how to pass the potatoes. We learned manners, how to hold a fork and at the beginning of the meal watching how much mom did to prepare the meals and us for dinner. Her words before every meal were to wash up before you sit at the table.
