An Easy Greek Meal: Souvlaki Pitas & Tzatziki Recipe

Souvlaki pitas are one of my favourite meals - not only are they easy to make, but they taste absolutely magnificent. I first discovered souvlaki at a local Greek restaurant, and from that very day, I was hooked. I was on a lunch date with my mum at the time, and as soon as we'd finished our meals, I asked mum if we could go grocery shopping to get the fixings so I could make souvlaki that evening for dinner! Caveat emptor: these pitas are quite messy, so do not eat this meal in front of someone you are trying to impress - unless you're trying to impress them with your spilling skills.

Clinging to Joy

"Joy is distinctly a Christian word and a Christian thing. It is the reverse of happiness. Happiness is the result of what happens of an agreeable sort. Joy has its springs deep down inside. And that spring never runs dry, no matter what happens. Only Jesus gives that joy. He had joy, singing its music within, even under the shadow of the cross." -S.D. Gordon
