...but why is all the baklava gone?

Yesterday, Greg and I went to a Greek pastry & food festival at the Greek Orthodox Church. In a word, it was delicious!

When we walked in, we were greeted with smiling Greek ladies that were excited to tell us about all the pastries. They were scurrying about speaking Greek, it was really legit. I just wanted one piece of baklava, that’s all, just one. Well apparently, I did it all wrong, it caused a little commotion as far as packaging. You’re supposed to get a whole box of deliciousness. That’s far more than I can handle. Greg got a box of sweets and we took them to his Grandma. We then came back and had Gyros for lunch, so delicious! Oh, I should note that the Greek men were in the kitchen cooking the lunch part! I saved the baklava for later cause I was just too full to eat it, and I really wanted to enjoy it. So, I did the natural thing and had it for breakfast today. (fyi: pairs well with coffee) Holy smokes, best thing I’ve eaten in a long time, and something tells me that’s not Pepperidge Farm phyllo dough! Hah! Greg's great-grandma used to make phyllo from scratch. I don't even know how this would happen! I was sad when the baklava was gone, and might have slightly regretted not getting a whole box of goodness!
