A couple of quick stories. First the Pa Boy, it’s named after a sandwich Pa made when he was in town a couple months ago (no shrimp, just kinda clever). When we went to Trader Joe’s he was “allowed” to pick out some items of his own. The things he grabbed were deli meat and these awesome little artisan rolls (and an apple pie). When we got back home Pa made up some sandwiches, Z ate ‘em up like crazy. We’ve been getting these rolls for sandwiches “like when Pa was here” ever since. A simple sandwich consisting of sliced deli meat, tomatoes and mayonnaise, add whatever you like but keeping it simple is best here. We mmmm with every bite of these. Thank you for dropping these little babies in da basket Pa.

What can I say, this house loves Greek food. Every year we hit the Greek food festival devouring some of our favorite foods, spanakopita, tiropita, and baklava. I bought some phyllo dough the other day and was itching to use it and there could be no better way than some of our favorites. So I went to foodgawker as usual and found this recipe at closetcooking.com which sounded perfect. As I was reading the recipe I saw Kevin also had a recipe for baklava so I was like what the hell. Reading the two recipes I found that the baklava would need to sit for a few hours after it was made so I made it first and moved on to the spinach pie. WOW! This pie was amazing! I didn’t think it would come out this good but it did. Kid tested and mother approved. You can’t beat that.
