Marie, love your Yay! for food website. Love that the pics are big and displayed so beautiful. I spend a lot of my time in the kitchen but haven't thought of creating a food website. Maybe one of these days. But i can see it does take some coordinating. Interesting that Scott hasn't brought any to work yet! lol. I was looking for a Spanakopita Rolls recipe to make with my Baklava....so was super happy when you had it already in your website. I have grabbed a few others to try out. Keep updating and I will grab and try too! Thanks Marie!
