Yeah, there was a ton of made-in-China wares with their tags cut out, and the lines for food were easily an hour deep, but what a rad little party.

The food, of course, was the main draw for us:

Better than mine, the above spinach pastry. Aaargh!

| Baklava sundae! |
The above pile of ice cream and crushed, freshly constructed baklava was, easily, the star of the show. The ice cream was pretty generic - I'm tempted to try a version with homemade honey-vanilla scoops and see how sugar high I can get. A sweet to tempt even dessert-hating me.
There were 5 dollar (yikes!) Mythos, of which I had many:
See you next year, awesomefest. Until then, I'll be working on my spanikopita.
