A Greek menu was promised and here it is...
Spanikopita
Zeke's Tyropitas (Epicurious . com has this recipe, they are awesome cheese and phyllo turnovers)
Dolmades
Grilled haloumi cheese and lemon with cumin dusted toasted pita chips
Greek salad with a terrific vinegrette dressing with finely minced garlic and oregano
Grilled Marinated Leg of Lamb with Tsatsiki and soft Pitas
Roasted Chicken with Lemon, Garlic and Oregano
Baked red snapper with avgolemono
Orzo with feta, tomatoes, and dill
Grilled Baby Artichokes
Herb Roasted Eggplant with Tomatoes
Ouzo-scented almond, yogurt, and olive oil cake
Sesame Seed Candy
Baklava, of course!
Barkeep, a strong coffee with an Ouzo please!
I made extra of the Tyropitas so check the kitchen if they run out. I am leaving early today to pick up my Mom for the weekend. I'll check in later.

I'm afraid to order. I don't know how to pronounce most of that stuff.

I'll bring some souvlaki and loukoumades! But I won't fry them until we're ready for dessert--they're best when they're fresh and hot.

I was just thinking, it all looks Greek to me!

These sound infinitely better than what I really have for lunch.
Had an appointment with my doctor yesterday, a followup on getting new meds about 6 months ago. She wanted my menu from the previous day. I went through it, only slightly surprised that I could actually remember it all, but kept thinking "Gawd, this is dull food!". The only remotely un-dull food was GW's dinner, which of course contained a rare not-so-good-for-you ingredient. Losing and keeping off weight may be healthier, but it severely atrophies your taste buds.

I almost forgot!
We are singing Happy Birthday later over by the dessert table.
I think we need to take the shoes off of the top of OntEllen's cake before we slice it though.

Especially with your regional accent.
