*****November 18...yogurt and fresh berries, Tzatziki Sauce Recipe

Today's dessert was yogurt, lemon zest, drizzled honey, covered with fresh blackberries yummy. I rehabilitated the squash soup yesterday with cumin and cracked pepper which was also yummy and much more appealing. Today had a sandwich with swiss cheese, which was so-so. If it weren't for the dessert, I would have been unhappy. You will see the photos as soon as I get back to my main computer. I picked up a cucumber so I could make the Tzatziki Sauce for the Spanikopita for "Creative Weekend with The Girls": landscape/still life acrylics for some, quilting for others, you will see the results soon.
