I have a friend who is pretty new to Greece (working as a nurse, left about a couple weeks ago) who said that the Greeks have a unique way to tell your fortune, which is by reading the coffee grounds left under your cup. She said that Greeks drink unfiltered coffee daw so the grounds are left on the bottom.

I love FAGE brand greek yoghurt. So good, almost like ice cream. But make sure you get the full-fat version, not the low-fat. The low-fat’s puwede na rin pero the full-fat version that comes w/ a side of honey is oh-so-good (not to mention very convenient)! Yummy!!!!!

Good morning MarketMan! I just knew you would give in to our request to do posts of your trip to Greece. That country is one of my dream destination in the world, after I have visited every land area possible in the Philippines.:)

Did you go to that place overlooking the Aegean Sea? It’s like a mountain ridge or something where the houses are almost all in white and blue. I hope you can post pictures if ever you did go there.

Thanks for feeding my soul on a bleak day like this! Your blog never fails me.:)
