    Welcome Melina,

    It is good to have another Greek around. If you have any questions please feel free to email me or any of the moderators.

    Very nice to meet you. Athenaeus has won many hearts here, so it's a pleasure to hear from her twin. (BTW, there are quite a few of us here in NYC!)

    Hi Mel!
    Welcome on board!

    I think that you can help here with your talent to transform the most fattening recipe into a non fat but still delicious one!

    Melina is performing some experiments on how chocolate can be used without being fattening ;)

    What I Love with Internet is that your identical twin sister cannot fool your friends about her identity!!
    If "Athenaeus" starts behaving in a strange way, ask her to talk to you in Latin.
    This is the reason I learned Latin!!:D

    Oh Kimmie I am the oldest!

    Ti Kanis! Welcome to Chef Talk! I hope I remember enough of my Greek to say that properly. Please tell us a bit about yourself, Melina. Are you a lawyer like your sister?

    Dear Mezzaluna.

    Eimai kala efxaristo! Your Greek sound great!

    No I am not a lawyer, I am involved in the fashion business. Nothing creative, just a retired to be model.
    We are a strange family I think.
    My dad and Athenaeus are the always serious and the scientific minds and the hard working (and good cooks both of them), my mom and I chose the world of fashion.
    I love cooking also but I cannot eat too much that's why I try to be a bit creative in low fat cooking!

    Afra you must be the bookworm my sister was telling me about ;)

    I gotta go! It's very late now!

    Hey Afra!
    Check on the web about people from Mani -Greece. Mani is the area my family comes from.
    We are vicious killers...

    Who ever makes fun of you he/she is BIG trouble cherie...

    She is not making fun of you!

    Thanks Panini.

    I visited your site.

    I 'll tell what we are going to do.
    You will have me in a picture eating your cakes and suggesting that all this sugar your are using is harmless.

    :)

    Here is my secret for calorie free chocolate.

    Eat a bar of chocolate and afterwards jog for 2 hours and excercise on the boxing sac for another hour.
    There you are!
    Free of calories!
