I can hardly believe that it is already 2015. I hope this year brings everything you wish for. Since winter break started, spending more time with my son was the best part of this winter.
Kids love winter break. They get time off school and they get to do what they want to do. Aria was longing for winter break. Today we spent some time together, had lunch out. One of the famous foods in Turkey, ground beef bread, named Lahmacun which is delicious and he loves it.
Baked thin piece of dough topped with minced meat beef and minced vegetables and herbs including onions, tomatoes and parsley. Lahmacun is often served with lemon and wrapped around veggies including pickles, tomatoes, pepers, onions, lettuce, eggplant..
I used to take him to Turkish Restaurants when we were in New York. Lahmacun has always been one of his favorite Turkish foods..
No snow here. Also it was already 18 C(64 F) today. Actually Aria misses snow, making a snowman, snow angel in winter break ...Then again, he wishes winter break lasted forever with or witbout snow!
Happy February!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Debi,

ReplyDeleteWe went to Istanbul a few years back and I remember these meat pies everywhere. My husband only ate these as he is so picky and afraid of new foods. Lol! They were good though.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so good! I don't think I've ever had Turkish food!
ReplyDeleteI have never had Turkish food but it looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteYou make that look positively delicious! I would so love to try it. You and Aria are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThat food looks DELISH!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've had authentic Turkish food but that does look delicious. Seems similar to Greek food, maybe?
ReplyDeleteI like that they commonly use eggplant in there. That doesn't seem to get used enough and it's really so delicious.
ReplyDeleteI have never had Turkish food! It looks delish!
ReplyDeleteHappy February! I'm vegetarian so if you want to check some recipes you can take a look at my blog. Warm regards!

ReplyDeleteI can always come here and find a picture of a tasty looking dish. It makes me hungry!
ReplyDeleteOne of my daughters loves having a break from school too! I wish she liked school more, but there is a reason for her feelings. She's very creative, so I hope she'll so something fulfilling when she grows up.
Happy February to you, too!

That pizza looks fantastic. Seems as if your son is enjoying it. My mom used to get something called a "thyme pie" at a Middle East market near us. It was similar to that and one of our favorite things to eat from their store.
ReplyDeleteKori, some foods are similar. There might be some differences between types of meats and spice
ReplyDeleteHi, Lucero De Tierra,
ReplyDeleteThyme pie is delicious too.
The connection of the east and west not only geographically but culturally as well. Middle Eastern food, Anotolian food, Mediterranean cuisine, Balkan cuisine..all delicious!
Glad you and your family likes it.Besides, thyme gives a wonderful taste to food. .love it!
Excellent web site. Plenty of helpful information here.
ReplyDeleteI'm sending it to some friends ans also sharing in delicious.
And certainly, thank you for your effort!
