American School Party (not in Athens)


Saturday March 9
Like everyone and everything in Greece, the American School of Classical Studies is suffering in the current economy.  So tonight our colleague Jack gave a party to try and raise funds for it. 
Guests were greeted by a large amphora to hold their donations, and the squeeze was not so painful, as we were given some grape-squeezings to help it down.  There was also an abundant cheese platter, plenty of fruit, and a clever hors d'oeuvre: endive leaves, each stuffed with either salmon salad or black bean and corn salad.  
It was hearty enough that we didn't need more dinner before rushing over to CCM to catch the Threepenny Opera; and of course, some Graeter's afterward kept body and soul together.
