A Fantastic Write Up For Turkish ProduceMEM's Blog
16 September 2009
I had to write a short story for class today, involving a smell that gives you a childhood memory. Well, it was obvious what mine was going to be :)
Molasses and olive oil infused with butter and sugar, a light glaze of honey and sprinkles of sesame seeds combine to create the rich, warm...

We have had a second home in Turkey for about 5 or 6 years.
It has taken all this time to sort out the house buying the house, curtains, furniture, air conditioning fitted etc.
On top of this the house has had to have all the roof tiles replaced and has had to be repainted on the outside and most of the inside ceilings on the top floor have had to be...

Last time I wrote we had just been to the Mediterranean coast and then over to Greece for the day. Almost as soon as we came back, I came down with some horrible lurgy. It seemed to take forever to get over whatever I had and how bad I felt was really compounded by the fact that we almost immediately started looking at apartments again everyday, dragging...

i got a phone call on sunday at 2pm from my son to tell me that i was in the newspapers
the sunday observer food magazine had contacted me a few weeks ago to ask if they could take some pictures which i agreed to, so i was expecting a small write up but not as good as this
it has made me very proud, and proves that hard work and good clean produce makes it...

I am an organised person. I am a Virgo, a list maker and an 'on top of everything' person. I have store cupboards and a depot, I never run out of anything or forget birthdays.
With this in mind I am left to wonder how come midday on Sunday 6 September I suddenly realised my five years would be up on the 8th and I needed to do someting...

Last night I went to see one of my favorite bands playing at a bar about an hour or so up the road in Missouri. I don't like to go to Missouri very often (Missouri and missery sound too much alike to be any good in my opinion), but for Cutthroat Shamrock I'm very willing to make the trip. They're a band from Knoxville, Tennessee that are a cross...
So, the Artev beach opened, complete with Mono rail system.
Then, mid summer CLOSED.
Built for life, or built to last a few weeks.
Actual photos to follow, but this one will do for now.......

I just want to start this blog (my first one!) by saying that anyone who thinks of having any type of surgery should think very hard!!!
I can't understand for the life of me why people would go in for aesthetic plastic surgery when necessary surgery is so painful.
I have had my bunion and the toe next to it corrected. As well as a...

This morning was another near-miss as far as breakfast goes. We just about managed to wake up, shared the one remaining bowl of rice pudding, drank some water and went back to bed. I’ve been very tired all day though – fasting is very wearing, on the spirit as much as the body. But it feels good to achieve something, a bit like running a race. Just...
