Thanks for the comment (and inspiration), Lac. I have so enjoyed reading your blog (http://preppyislander.blogspot.com/), because it gives me a peek into a different world, and of course, I love your wit. Glad you support the Slow Food Movement (but of course you do). You are one of the few women left in the universe that qualifies as a lady!

Hey V! Thanks for the shout-out and I’m so glad that you enjoyed the post Yeah, Greek food IS totally amazing!!! We have one Greek restaurant here in tiny ole’ Beaufort and both James and I really enjoy going there every so often… I’ve been to England 4 times now and have yet to find anything delicious aside from good ole’ “pub food” which is more hearty than healthy fare but fits the bill in rainy, damp weather. Here at home, we sit down for supper at the dining room table and I agree, it’s a great and so-worthy tradition that’s getting “lost” within our postmodern culture. I support the Slow Food Movement theme. Enjoyed your post about food too! Best, Lac

Actually, I think a lot of countries do food right…the Japanese, Italians, Greeks, and Indians ALL do food better than the Brits. I agree that a nation’s cuisine does indeed reflect its character. Brits are known for their lack of emotion, which might make them good soldiers, but terrible cooks. Except Nigella, of course.

Seriously, few countries do food right. A nation’s cuisine also reflects it’s character in a way.
