October 23, 2017 - 2 Comments

Those of you in the northern hemisphere, are you autumn struck yet? Is it getting chillier where you live? It's still rather warm in Greece and a far cry from sweater-weather, but I've been in full baking mode regardless. And yes, cheesy as it may be, I love all things Pumpkin Pie Spice, and I have

Hi, it’s Athina!

A stalwart bookworm, English & American Literature graduate, EFL/ESOL teacher. I juggled teaching and working as an executive secretary, in a big advertising company and a law firm, for several years. I’m a freelance writer, line editor, and blogger as of lately. Also, a bit ironic by nature but, all in all, quite easy-going. Partner to 1 & mother to 3 cats. I once tried to give up coffee and then swore not to make that mistake again!

“When summer's end is nighing And skies at eve “When summer's end is nighing
 And skies at evening cloud,
I muse on change and fortune
 And all the feats I vowed
 When I was young and proud.”
—A.E. Housman, verse from 𝘟𝘟𝘟𝘐𝘟, Last Poems (1922)
