Loaf is back!
At some point in time this morning, we heard a car horn honking its way up the rough access road that winds up to the cottage. We didn’t see anyone so we assumed they stopped up at the plot above us — it looks kinda like a vegetable garden and is cordoned off with fencing. We suspected it was possible that Loaf had gotten herself trapped in there before the storms hit a couple weeks back, and no one had been up since then to let her out.
Whether that is actually the root cause or it was just coincidence, when we pulled ourselves together to run into town, there she was, looking for attention (and treats). Happy reunion between cat and Heather ensued.
Feeling a little nostalgic for American food, I picked up a box (!) of hard-shell tortillas complete with taco seasoning, along with the requisite fixings. Sour cream was a little tricky to find until I translated it back and forth and realized they call it “milk cream” here — krema galaktos — or at least I think it’s sour cream.
I guess if I end up with actual cream for my tacos, I can always try greek yogurt instead.
Results tomorrow.
Picked up souvlaki for a late lunch, and coming back up to the car I saw that the bakery we like still had melomakaronas from Christmas, although the supply looked pretty low. I ducked in to grab one last chance for a handful (as they are quite good and quite addictive) and after I ordered some, I confirmed that this really was the last of the last of them, that they wouldn’t make any more this year, and did I just want the rest of them?
Yeah, yeah I did.
They threw in the rest of the chocolate covered ones in as a freebie. They probably enjoy having a chubby American as a regular customer. Now I just gotta figure out what else I want to try!
