My Big Fat Greek Bake Sale

So, I didn't make it to the Monterey farmers' market because my paying job had me doing Very Important Things way past noon.  What I did instead was re-stock my pantry at Star Market.  Michael at the cheese counter, as always, was brilliant.  He sampled me more of the coconut gouda (yum!!!) and provided the usual sage advice about my cheese choices - and cut them to my (cheapo) order.  

My real downfall, though, was St. John's Greek Orthodox Church's bake sale outside the store.  They'll be there tomorrow.  And I have to tell you, the $3.00 baklava was SO worth it.  I ate two forks-full and put the rest in the fridge.  It's rich, home-made and delicious.  They're using a lot of the money to feed people who might otherwise go hungry, so if you're in the neighborhood, go by and buy big.

Tomorrow and Sunday - I'll see you at the market!
