i am not sure about serving of figs . i liked to eat them at morning with bread and Hellim .
your figure is ok . your man is lucky man .

and here is the Yayla soup for you .

1/4 cup rice
5 cups of water (if you wish you can use half chicken stock, half water)
i can recommend to use chicken broth2 cups of plain yogurt
1 egg
2 tbsp flour
2 tbsp butter
2 tsp dried mint or tarragon
1 tsp salt

-Boil rice in 5 cups of water with salt until (very) soft.
-In a bowl, beat the egg and flour well, and then add yogurt and mix. With 1-2 tbsp water lighten up this mixture.
-Put the yogurt mix in a pot and start cooking on very low. It's important that you start with low heat, otherwise yogurt would curdle. Give yogurt some time to get used to heat. Cook on low heat for approximately 15 minutes and keep stirring.
-Slowly pour in rice along with water into the soup. Keep stirring. First let it boil on medium and then turn it down and cook for another 10 minutes.
-Heat butter in a pan. Once it sizzles, add mint flakes and stir for 20-30 seconds (don't let it burn). Then, pour it into soup.

Hiya to ALL my friends on the forum. (Do I have enemies?).

First of all I would like to apologise to Conor for putting him in the worst kind of lime light. On the other hand I must admit Oracles comments have given me one of the greatest laughs ever (that she guessed Conor was a GC). Oracle has got a cheek to accuse me (mind you she has got four of them) of ungentlemanly conduct. I suppose when she can delete her unlady-like comments, its all fair game.

Anyway I have had a lovely time, thanks for asking.

I met some lovely people like Bubbles and Tess. Halil and Iceman, Zan and Bananiot all with their families. They all added to the lovely time we had in Cyprus regardless of the heat. My only regret is that I did not have time to travel to Paphos and its environs. If O was in residence then I would have made the special effort as Kafenes had offered to introduce us. Very brave of Kafenes indeed, but I could not even meet him either (sadly).

I have only read three pages of this thread and I will carry on now as I have stopped laughing.

Did Deniz meet with Zan also? Will he also write letters from the "trnc"?

Yes I did meet Zan. I also met GR on a previous visit. Is there a problem?

I will not write letters from the trnc, as I visited Cyprus North and South. My greetings are from all over Cyprus.
