First Day of Spring

 

Panagiota's kafenío

 

Minoa

Knossos

Heraklion

Rakomelo

Misadventures

Rakimisu

Took a morning walk 

to pick a bouquet before the rains set in

Saskia, who was waiting at the church, joined me.

We didn't need to go far.

Then, it being Mardi Gras, 

I gathered ingredients

using raki rather than espresso

and made raikimisu.

With lunch, opened a bottle of liatiko, 

an ancient Cretan wine.

Another fine day.
