For the last month or so, probably out of nostalgia for the lovely trip we made last summer to Turkey, I have been treating myself to a Turkish-style breakfast with bread, hummus, dates, figs and cherries every morning. I generally don’t enjoy breakfast – toast, waffles, pancakes, cereal, eggs, or any of that stuff – but I loved what we were served in Turkey. So I have decided to eat a Turkish-style breakfast to start my day off better. I also bought myself some fabulous baggy Turkish pants at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul last July. They are comfortable in the summer heat, sort of cool-looking (as cool as I ever get!) and they remind me of the lovely city and its people.
One aspect of our trip to Turkey that I am not going to be able to incorporate into my life, however, is the Turkish language.
