Taramosalata (Fish roe salad - meze)

  Photo taken from Athinorama Umami Taramosalata There are also the Greek classics, think something like a dip but instead of using nachos or vegetables to eat them we use bread.

  17. This cake is so beautiful and I am sure the young lady loved it. It reminds me of what I have learned in Prof. Neo's Dev Psych class this semester. Young children are very aware of gender roles and what is considered appropriate for a girl or a boy from a young age. The mermaid doll on the cake is very clearly a cake for a young lady. I am sure she enjoyed it. It is adorable!
    Best Regards,
