i have only been living in the city for a week now but it is now my home. my Greek neighborhood lets me step outside the rush of the city and get away while staying in touch with my Greek roots. i found my favorite local places for my coffee, late night chinese, and convenient store. I took these pictures at Artopoulos my weekly stop for bread, Greek cookies, and authentic Euro frappes is Artopoulos. the whole journey seems surreal and i hope that i will soon wake up so i can start living and appreciate that i am living my dream.

back in the day bakery
we usually stay local for spring break,
but this year i asked dan if we could head over & do a quickie visit to Savannah.
Savannah Georgia
the gorgeous coastal town
filled with history and charm,
& the inspiration for me to name my first born.
my sweet friend melanie had warned me,
a visit to the paris market
& back in the day bakery
were must see destinations.
well, she knows me.
i could have spent hours in both
&
maybe i did!
Cheryl Day's bakery is featured in the current Where Women Cook magazine.
while the feature itself is wonderful
actually walking into this bakery is truly a treat for the senses!
for this former owner of a pink pastel kitchen,
it was love at first site!
the girls working the bakery that day were so adorable.
& were very accommodating while i photographed until my heart was content.
i think my family was worried we were only there for the ambiance!
we tried their cupcakes, lemon bars and italian sodas.
i don't have a huge sweet tooth,
but my number one weakness is a fresh sugar cookie with homemade frosting.
this is a miss hanna~ a delicious lavender shortbread cookie.....
bliss!
caroline sampled the pesto fontina
& then followed up with a resounding "delish"!
they offered new born cupcakes to a tour that was coming through.
did she say new born cupcakes?
oh yes she did! how cute is that?
cheryl was in the back baking, duh, while were visiting.
it was all i could to hold myself back from doing the weirdo fan thing &
saying hello and mumbling things such as
wow
precious
this is the cutest place on earth
can i have another lavender shortbread piece of heaven
i loved your article
or simply
i'll be back!!
