PirateFest Performance Update!!

Yes, our performance schedule has changed again, but it's good news...PirateFest invades Lorenzi Park tomorrow! -- and Desert Gypsies is ready to take the Main Stage at 4:45 PM. If you can't make it that early, we'll be performing again on the Second Stage at 6 PM. Assuming the wind isn't too fierce, the second show will be entirely different, so if you catch our first show, we hope you'll stop by to rak with us again. See you then!

Recipe: Tzatziki (Cucumber Yogurt Dressing)

Tzatziki is one of my favorite dressings. It's delicious with all sorts of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes, from kebbeh to foul moudhammus, but it's a classic with falafel. It makes a wonderful chunky salad dressing, too. Enjoy!

Tzatziki

Ingredients:

2 cups Greek yogurt
2 cucumbers, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons dried dill weed

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in medium bowl. Serve chilled.
