I always try to find a title

It is so difficult to manage and find a suitable title every time I want to write.
Maybe I will end up without a title on my bloposts like others do.
Anyway let's see....
oh yes I wanted to thank everyone who leaves comments or just reads my blog.
I always want to answer the comments. Many people do not return to read an answer to their comment so it is better to answer them directly. But (there is always a but...) if your google account is not connected to an e-mail when I press a reply button it says no-reply blogger so I cannot answer you. So if you want an answer to your comments add an e-mail to your google profile.
Also as you can see on my bloglist I have added some new blogs. I am reading many more blogs now. They are all so interesting, that's why I have added them.
I have added a giveaway box,too, where I will be adding giveaways that take place on other blogs that I read as sometimes they ask so from the participants in the giveaway.
Having said that I will start with a couple of silly photos. Silly because I just happened to take them and want to share them that's all.
I found these little caterpillars in one of my plants at the balcony and played around with them!

 I put all my stones(the ones I had collected at the end of August) in this nice basket.

 The succulents I had brought from my aunt in Athens are doing really well.

 Now on the 18th was my nameday. I made feta and dill muffins for my school colleagues.

 I got dressed in this lovely old dress of mine and added this pin I bought from a colleague who makes them herself.

 Hubby brought me an icecream cake.

 Mummy brought me roses.

 Here is the pin again and a bracelet I bought from another colleague friend who makes them herself,too. I have very talented colleagues at school.

 These are sausages muffins I made for us on the day. They were excellent!

Tomorrow we are on a strike for all the financial and political problems we have here so I won't go to school but to the demonstration! Goodnight!

My nameday gifts

Here are some photos of the gifts I received this year for my nameday.

 Some roses from my mum.Isn't this light pink one very delicate?

 My best friend Gia brought me three gifts. A candle for my summer house.

 A shell frame for there,too.

 And a lovely tunic embellished with beads. I loved it and wore it the very next day at school where it attracted lots of comments.

 My son's tutor brought me a great book about Gaudi from his recent trip to my beloved Barcelona.

 Isn't this fish mosaic fantastic?

 My brother and sister-in-law brought me this lovely handpainted on driftwood key hanger.

 I loved the detail.This is also going to my beach house.All my close friends and relatives know my love for the sea!

My nameday.

In Greece people celebrate their birthdays but also their namedays.The nameday is the day when their patron saint celebrates for the Christian Orthodox Church.
Although I was named after my Grandmother and she was given an ancient Greek name there is a celebration for a saint by that name for the church on the 18th of September.
Some close friends and relatives know my nameday and gave me phonecalls.My best friend Gia with her family visited me yesterday. I spent the day with my hubby and son out for lunch and then the rest of the day I answered phonecalls and talked as much as I could till the next phonecall!
Here are a couple of photos from today's lunch out and walk.

 Courgetteballs,green salad,potatoes.

 Snails before and after...........

 Grilled fish.

 To elliniko is the name of the restaurant.

 After lunch we happened to see the Antique car gallery in front of the Mayor Hall.

 The mayor was in a car.

 I love that wall at the new Mayor Hall and it is a great background for photos.
