    Hello Makos. I just want to say a warm thank you for your wonderful and regular posts which are so welcomed by myself and the family. I have been an advocate of the Mediterranean diet for many years, having spent my working life in mainly Italian, Greek and French restaurants and bistros. Although brought up on mainly British-based foods (living in the South Pacific) my late mother was a talented and adventurous cook with many, many friends from cultures vastly different from our own.[ I actually mastered the art of using chopsticks long before I learnt what a knife and fork could do!]. North African friends taught my own children the delights of Morocco and both Lebanese and Indian friends taught us all how the simple flatbread can be the most delicious food on the planet! Hope you and your family have had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Sincere regards, Caz
