Sun shines through the rain.

      Clean Monday, this is the start of lent so today we only eat certain foods today including octopus (because it has no blood) white beans & stuffed vines leaves or cabbage. We must not eat anything from Animals or the produce of animals as a sacrifice (you are supposed to do this for 40 days, but over the years it has been cut down a little bit), also there is a tradition of flying kites (don’t know why) so this morning we took our 9 year old twin nephews (Diamondis & Ignatios) to the beach armed with our home made kite, consisting of a black bin bag for the body & shredded carrier bags for a tail & flew the kite nearly as far as Petra! The wind was a little stronger than normal & Costas almost did a Mary Poppins and took off!

The sun is shining & the sky is blue, which is lovely as recently it has been nonstop rain!

Like I said, Sun shines through the rain.
another reciepe coming to you all very soon, so what this space.
