I was going through some old files looking for an image, and I came across these. I suddenly find myself very hungry and missing those little special things that make Turkey special! More often than not, it is the simple things that make a place special. It doesn't have to be grand. It can be a favorite dish, flower or enjoying a coffee during sunset with friends. Summer is almost here!

I love walking past the Four Seasons in Istanbul.
It has some of the biggest, brightest Jasmine ever. |
 |
Turkish Borek, the most amazing savory pastry |
 |
Figs. I love the smell of the fig tree so much, I have one in a pot on my balcony. |
 |
Turkish olives for breakfast and olive oil for everything else |
 |
Lokum, or Turkish Delight. Served best with Turkish coffee. |
 |
Turkish Coffee. After you drink it, someone reads your fal, or fortune, in the coffee left in your cup. |
 |
As you look up from your cup, perhaps you will catch a beautiful sunset |
