Ekmek with Peanut Butter... LOVE IT!!! It was so good when skiing at Uladag. Yum...
Tina, wanted to say, I'm the WORST emailer in the world, but only because I sell stuff on ebay and get computer weary and so many emails from customers that I get an aversion to even looking in my email box. Then I get on a kick and have to touch base with my KAS buddies again. It makes me more secure So don't give up on me!

OMG! I remember so much of that! Our second maid, Sukrea (Ramzia had to quit due to illness) took my little brother and I to a turkish wedding. Someone in her family got married and it was quite an experience for us! My mom and I used to talk about all the various memories of Turkey. Remember chai? Still my favorite. Ekmek... hadn't thought about that in a good long while. Awesome memories!!!

I didn't drink Chai back then,which is probably why I don't drink it now. I've been thinking about trying it though. What's the best kind and how do you do it?

I wish I could find a recipe to make authentic Ekmek.

Remember the Pretzels they carried on the platters on their heads? I remember well the exciting smells and sights from the ferry going over to Istanbul.
