Kalimera my dears!

Let me begin by thanking you for the welcome back yesterday! I was so touched. While I was away I was a little worried that my small following of readers would have gotten bored and abandoned the blog. Thanks for proving me wrong! You’re all wonderful. Truly. That’s one of the reasons why I’m doing this giveaway – I’m just nuts about you, and I want to thank you for helping me with MM!

In other news, my Dad is here in Toronto for a brief two night stay for some business. It’s been wonderful father-daughter time. We went to this awesome restaurant on Queen West yesterday called “the Harlem Underground.” It serves soul food and oh my, their collard greens killed me. They were made with kale, collards, lots of garlic and COCONUT MILK; ’nuff said. Dad got a jumbalaya and said it was delish, too. The atmosphere in there was awesome, it was all velvet curtains and soft music and we realized partway through that the restaurant was a converted garage! The mechanical support for it was still in place, although the garage door itself had been replaced by some sweet looking windows. Fun times I’m going back there with Andrew as soon as he gets in Toronto.

• Dad’s here for another night, though, and I need another restaurant idea! Time to shine my Toronto readers. Where should we go for a fun father-daughter-dinner-date?

Thanks for your suggestions, as always.
