Who wants a dakos? :)

Dakos is a well known appetizer which consists of a slice of dried bread or barley rusk (paximadi) soaked in water and olive oil and topped with chopped tomatoes and crumbled mizithra (local cheese) and dried oregano. How many of you have tasted this delicious meze? And, as many say, Dakos has a unique taste in Crete, thanks to the rich taste of organic Cretan products. See for yourself!

Να κεράσουμε ένα ντάκο; :)

Ο Ντάκος είναι ένα ευρέως γνωστό ορεκτικό που αποτελείται από ένα παξιμάδι μουσκεμένο σε νερό και λάδι που επάνω έχει κυβάκια φρέσκιας ντομάτας, τριμμένη μυζήθρα και αποξηραμένη ρίγανη. Όπως λένε πολλοί, η γεύση του Ντάκου είναι ιδιαίτερη στην Κρήτη χάρη στα αγνά τοπικά υλικά που χρησιμοποιούνται για την παρασκευή του.

MySunnyEscapes.com - Your 🔝 choice for holidays in Crete!

According to our tradition, on the first hours of Easter Sunday Greeks clink red eggs during dinner. This symbolizes resurrection and new life. It is said that if you are the last to have his egg cracked, you will have good luck. As a result, children spend Holy Saturday night looking for the toughest egg! Happy Easter!

MySunnyEscapes.com - Your 🔝 choice for holidays in Crete!

Tsoureki is the Greek Easter bread. It is a sweet, egg-enriched bread formed of braided strands of dough. Tsoureki is traditionally made on Holy Thursday, along with the dyeing of the Easter eggs.

😊Our special thanks to Μαρια, Eirini and Fotini who shared with us pictures of the tsoureki they made today! Happy Easter to all!

Το Τσουρέκι φτιάχνεται παραδοσιακά τη Μεγάλη Πέμπτη, μαζί με το βάψιμο των πασχαλινών αυγών. Ευχαριστούμε ιδιαιτέρως τις Μαρία, Ειρήνη και Φωτεινή που μοιράστηκαν μαζί μας φωτογραφίες από τα τσουρέκια που έφτιαξαν! Καλή Ανάσταση σε όλους!

1st day of Spring!

Today it is as well World Poetry Day.
Below there is a poem by the Greek poet Christos Laskaris.

Reading a poem

I was reading a poem about spring
when I saw her
coming from far:
half woman,
half dream.
She was heading down the path
wreathed
with cherry blossoms.
Just then I realized
how powerful poems are.

---------------------------------------------------

1η μέρα της Άνοιξης!

Σήμερα είναι, επίσης, Παγκόσμια μέρα Ποίησης.
Παρακάτω είναι ένα ποίημα το Οδυσσέα Ελύτη.

Διαβάζοντας ένα ποίημα

Διάβαζα ένα ποίημα για την άνοιξη,
όταν την είδα
να έρχεται από μακριά:
μισή γυναίκα,
μισή όνειρο.
Κατέβαινε το μονοπάτι κάτω
στεφανωμένη
με άνθη κερασιάς.
Τότε κατάλαβα
τι δύναμη έχουν τα ποιήματα.

Today it is Clean Monday. In Greece it's a custom to fly the kite and eat lagana (unkneaded bread) as there will be a period of 40 days, before Easter comes, of fasting.

Martis (March Bracelet)

On March 1st mothers all over Greece braid bracelets for their children. The bracelets are called "Martis" and are made of a red and a white yarn twisted together. According to the tradition, the "Martis" protect the children's faces from the sun of Spring. In the end of March, the bracelets are left on the branches of trees so that the first swallows will use them to make their nests.

Την πρώτη μέρα του Μαρτίου μητέρες σε όλη την Ελλάδα συνηθίζουν να πλέκουν βραχιολάκια για τα παιδιά τους. Το βραχιόλι αυτό ονομάζεται "Μάρτης" και αποτελείται από κόκκινη και άσπρη κλωστή, στριφογυρισμένες μεταξύ τους. Σύμφωνα με την παράδοση, ο "Μάρτης" προστατεύει τα πρόσωπα των παιδιών από τον ανοιξιάτικο ήλιο. Στο τέλος του Μαρτίου, τα βραχιολάκια αφήνονται στα κλαδιά των δέντρων έτσι ώστε τα πρώτα χελιδόνια να φτιάξουν με αυτά τις φωλιές τους.

Greek hospitality is no myth! In Crete you will meet friendly locals who will treat you some tsikoudia (local drink) or a Kalitsounaki (a local treat). You will be pleasantly surprised by the taste of Greek food - but most of all you will be surrounded by friendly smiles. Sounds perfect to you? Book your stay through MySunnyEscapes.com and get ready to experience Greek hospitality at its best!

Η Ελληνική φιλοξενία είναι αυτό που διαφοροποιεί την Ελλάδα σαν προορισμό, την κάνει πιο ανθρώπινη. Στην Κρήτη οι ντόπιοι θα σας κεράσουν μια τσικουδιά ή λίγα καλτσουνάκια. Η γεύση είναι φανταστική, αλλά αυτό που θα σας μείνει αξέχαστο θα είναι το πόσο καλοδεχούμενοι θα αισθάνεστε, περιτριγυρισμένοι από τόσα χαμόγελα. Αν αυτός είναι ο τρόπος που θέλετε να περάσετε τις διακοπές σας, κλείστε τη διαμονή σας μέσα από το MySunnyEscapes.com και ετοιμαστείτε για μια μοναδική εμπειρία διακοπών!

The Greek "Karavaki" (little ship) is part of a very old Greek tradition. Each year children from the Greek islands would go singing "kalanda" (Christmas Carols) door to door holding a Karavaki decorated with small lights, where they would place the treats. Nowadays, many Greeks prefer to decorate a Christmas tree instead of a Karavaki; yet Karavaki has a special place in our hearts.

Ο στολισμός του παραδοσιακού καραβιού αντί του Χριστουγεννιάτικου δέντρου έχει τις ρίζες του σε μια πολύ παλιά παράδοση. Κάθε χρόνο παιδιά, κυρίως από νησιώτικες περιοχές, έλεγαν τα κάλαντα από πόρτα σε πόρτα κρατώντας ένα καραβάκι στολισμένο με φωτάκια, μέσα στο οποίο ορισμένες φορές φυλούσαν τα κεράσματα. Στις μέρες μας πολλοί προτιμούν να στολίσουν Χριστουγεννιάτικο δέντρο αντί για καραβάκι. Το Χριστουγεννιάτικο όμως καραβάκι διατηρεί μια ξεχωριστή θέση στις καρδιές μας.

Olive harvesting season in Crete!

In order to be prepared, the farmers lay down nets to prevent any valuable olives from escaping. As soon as the olive harvesting starts, these nets will be really helpful! The photo was taken at an olive grove in west Crete.
