Merhaba!
I recently discovered this website through another blogger living in Turkey. I thought I would sign up too especially since this section is devoted to Turkey.

Originally from the U.S., we moved to Istanbul in August 2010. Since I'm a former pastry chef and journalist (now not working because of my husband's job here), I decided to start a food and travel blog about my expat experiences. It's called My Turkish Joys

I try to post 2 to 3 times a week and often include recipes based on the seasonal ingredients you find at the pazar here. I hope my recipes will inspire you to try something new at home.

Cheers!
Joy
