PS: Greek food ROCKS!

So I don't have a lamb shank handy, nor the ability to roast one all day long, so the recipes I found online for gyros all call for ground lamb, and it's grilled over a hot flame in little meatloafey shapes and then sliced. I was a skeptic.

The grilling over the hot flame thing kinda stunk. It was hot, and I kept checking to make sure my eyebrows didn't get singed off. But, true to the recipe's directions, they were ready in just a few minutes. Took 'em off my own version of a spit and sliced them up. Had to sample with some hot pita bread and my homemade tzatziki sauce. Heaven, baby! I smiled as I finished off the last "sample" bite and thought of my dear friend Dana who must be dining daily up in Heaven on this purely heavenly food! She was a huge Greek food fanatic and introduced it to me just a few short years ago.

I think she had a hand in making my first homegrown Greek meal tasty. A little help with the Magic Bullet would be great there, Dana! ;) Miss you Girlie.
