My feet barely touched the ground. We flew into London from Athens on Friday the 10th Sept after a long and painful drive/bus/train/walk to the airport and almost
missing the flight. The wedding 2 days later, was a beautiful event with lots of dancing (mostly by my daighter) and catching up with friends and family. Then a few days of relaxing before jetting off to Slovakia for a second wedding reception and a 4 night stay in a beautiful if not scary little lodge with a proud hunter of an owner showing off his prey at every opportunity, not mine or anyones cup of tea but interesting all the same.
The final leg of my trip was the Festival of Life at Conway Hall which i missed out on last year because Eleftheria was still little and i wasn't ready to face my public just yet.
Anyhow this year was a fabulous day. As always i met lots of new and wonderful people and caught up with some old friends.
My little table was constantly buzzing with people trying our Raw Olives and sampling dips like Raw vegan Taramasalata, Tzatziki and Olive and Almond Pate all available in my book The Raw Greek. My ears were ringing with the hum of Mmmm Mmmm Mmming from the happy tasters.
Our Unsalted Kalamata Olives and Lightly salted Throuba Olives went down a treat and customers left happy and satisfied with their bags full of Raw Greek goodies.
Our new Dry Greek Figs were also well received for their fresh, soft deliciousness.
The beauty of Raw Food Festivals is that you get to see and try other peoples products, we were lucky enough to have some raw ice-cream from Inspiral, the familiar raw chocolate, and to my delight Kale Chips, which are going to be available in the UK very soon watch this space for where and when to get yours.
I wish the day could have lasted longer but unfortunately all good things have to come to an end. So until next year...
