BEST Paninis EVER

These were SO good... like SO good... even Jordan who usually says my cooking is "fine" said "OMG Jo.. these are AWESOME!!"

First, I made homemade garlic Mayo

4-8 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 egg yolks
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 1/4 cups olive oil

Crush the garlic cloves with the salt, then place in a bowl and stir in the egg yolks and vinegar.
Gradually beat in the oil, a little at a time, beating well after each addition until thick and glossy.
Season to taste.
Store for up to 5 days in the fridge.

Holy crap was this good...

Then I made a BIG mess...

Memories of Santorini

I have been blessed, and have visited some of the most incredible places on Earth.
Santorini Greece is one of my favourites.
We lost the camera (read I lost the camera) at the end of our Italian/ Greek/ Croatian holiday- but we did buy some art on the side of the road.
A year later, I have finally got it framed.
