Dear Editor,
Why not celebrate Sunday, November 17, National Baklava Day all year long? Top off your lunch or dinner with something sweet for dessert. Order a piece of Baklava at the end of the meal at your favorite Greek Restaurant or order it in if you feel like dining with family rather than strangers. Baklava is always our go-to dish for dessert all year round. Baklava consists of thirty or more sheets of phyllo dough brushed with lots of butter, and layered with finely chopped pistachios, walnuts, and/or almonds. Who better than the Greeks to make this tasty treat? A slice of Baklava will put a smile on your face. Just don’t get up and start dancing to block the aisle! Opa!
Sincerely,
Larry & Wendy Penner
