Taramosalata (Fish roe salad - meze)

Marbled Brownies and Clay Work

These marbled brownies are dedicated to a dearest friend of mine, Oria Petropoullou, who is the best artist I ever met. She turns clay into fantastic art.

The hand with the butterfly you can see in the photo is a small example of her fantastic work.

I am very proud for her and I will never stop telling her how talented she is. I am sure that if she lived in New York or London she would be very famous by now.

Here is her official website, “Oria Creations”: https://www.oriap.com  
Please take a look. I am sure you will love her work too!!
