Book Publication Week – Greekish is here!

by // Leave a Comment

I’m so excited that Greekish comes out this week. I’ve been hard at work testing and developing, and I have to admit this one is a bit nerve-wracking – Nistisima was a study in Orthodox fasting, Taverna based around family and tradition. There are no monks or ancestors to take any criticism here, this is all me. As a result I think this is my most accessible book to date, taking my heritage and bringing it up to date. This one’s for busy working mums like myself who want quick dishes, and also those that can be cooked in one pan. I can’t wait for you to try my baklava cheesecake, one-pot pastitsio, or white chocolate, feta and cherry cookies. I can’t wait to hear and see how you get on with them!

Be More Yiayia T-Shirts are here!

I’ve made you wait long enough, the ‘be more yiaiya’ t-shirts are finally here! The perfect Christmas present (to keep or gift). They’re understated yet bold; a bit like my yiayias, my muses.

The t-shirts are made from organic materials, using renewable energy. All the good stuff. And they feel great.

Let’s be honest, yiayia would knit her own t-shirt. But for the rest of us…
