Baking Goods & It's Greek ;-)

I've made so many baked goods but there are certain ones I really want to make now.

I just recently enjoyed the Holy Cross Greek Food Fest and since I am Greek I LOVE IT ALL!!!

The desserts though, I totally want to master these. My favorite cookies, the KOULOURAKIA's, oh they are soo good! But then there are the special ones like BAKLAVA and this other one I can't think of at the moment-- it had nuts and honey and it was so good!

FOUND IT! Karidopita--- so so so so good.

I am Greek, as I said, and I should have learned this from a relative but my Greek side is not the close side. I will have to venture these lovely recipes on my own.

Stay tuned!

Craving for Knitting & Baking

So I really want to knit because I still have two more full months of summer to do stuff and I want it to be a wool Christmas. Haha-- but it's summer and I keep promising all these people baked goods!

Knitting--

I have to finish my leg warmers. They are almost done and once they are I can move on and finally learn how to cable. Hopefully....

Baking---

Think I'm going to make some cupcakes today. This recipe I want to make is super summer cute. You bake cupcakes in ice cream cones! Isn't that cute? Then ice them just so they look like ice cream! I'm super excited and so want to make these.

Well, I take pictures when it all happens and keep ya posted on the list for Christmas knits-- any thoughts and ideas appreciated! :)
