In Greece last month, three days of fires devastated an estimated 50,000 acres of forest, and at one point even threatened the suburbs of the capital, Athens.

It was a reminder of the country's worst fires which burned huge areas of the country in 2007. At that time, the Greek government promised action to make sure similar disasters wouldn't happen again.

This meal brought bak reminders of travel and spice around the world. (via A blog about Austin Food, Restaurants and Events)
