I found this picture on my phone. It looks exciting, and I am trying hard to remember the occasion.
Clues:
It was probably not too long after we started moving stuff into our house, because the china cabinet isn't in the background.
I am remembering the food: lentil stew (North African spices), pickled onion salad, pita. And olives.
Oh, those were the olives that Lydia gave me for Christmas, so it must have been late December/early January, because olives never last too long in our house.
That might be yogurt in the foreground, and it is probably homemade yogurt, which means that Megan (my 2012 intern) had arrived, so it must be early January.
I'm guessing the strawberries are from an Aldi dumpster.
Mmm, Turkish tea. This must be lunch, since us old folks don't drink caffeine in the evening very often.
Well, I am thinking the occasion was simply that we were both home and it was lunch time. Not very exciting, but I do remember that the lentils were REALLY good with those onions....

Nothing is better than Turkish breakfast on a warm summer morning. Remember, these are old pictures from my phone.

Feta Cheese
Olives
Sliced Tomatoes
Sliced Cucumbers
Yogurt
Sliced Avocados (not a normal part of Turkish breakfast)
Jam
Turkish Tea
