SENIORS ARE STILL A BIT GREEK TO ME

Sunday I wasn't successful in convincing my houseguest to stay an additional hour to accompany Natureman and myself for a middle eastern lunch at Greek Fest. Obviously she was anxious to get on the road and back home before the rest of the weekenders.

Last year the chefs at St. Elias Greek Orthodox Church had an issue of the spit taking way too long to cook the lamb so this year small lamb roasts were cooked on the grill and voila lunch was ready to be served starting at noon.  We ordered the lamb k bob lunch which also included pita, rice, middle eastern salad and tzatziki, the cucumber yogurt sauce.  

While we ate we enjoyed the music and dancing from our table in the food tent. All the chairs were filled so we squished in on the corner of a table. Sharing our end of the table were a Yooper ( Upper Peninsula) couple in their late 70's who have made the Coulee their home for the last 42 years. They have been spending the winters in Florida for the last 20 some odd years but return to garden here in Wisconsin. Gee I had never heard that before. Then the wife quipped "Oh yeah I guess we should say, we do have grandchildren here." Seniors say the darndest things...
