Mar 24

I married into a family of Greeks. They FILLED our house on holidays after our son was born. My wife had to find me in the garage. I was terrified. In my honky family, get-togethers always went haywire, so I was all a-tremble for years.
I really miss those days and all those wacky people. Attrition worked its magic, and now we're a party of five.
They subsumed my honky roots. Now I'm the Avgolemono Soup and Baklava Guy.
Good for you!!! How fortunate you are. You must have some great memories. Smile!!!! Stay with it.
