Culinary Cabaret Challenge #1: Mythology

The name of this category came to me because of the kind of food I've been craving. If you're freaking out by now thinking, "What on EARTH will I make for this?" I will just give you a hint: 

When I think mythology I think "Greek".

(Shout-out to Elizabeth Rose of Literary Lane for guessing "Greek" as the first theme!)

As a writer-friend of mine said recently, "If you want to get anywhere in literature you must know your Greek myths", and while this is something I need to brush up on, I do recall reading D'aulaire's Book of Greek Myths in school and finding it pretty and entertaining. Thus, the food challenge for this week is "Mythology". I will be taking inspiration from Grecian cuisine, but you will still be counted in the challenge if you take your mythology-inspired food from Celtic, Germanic, Babylonian or whatever folklore. Or you could go a different tack, like making ambrosia because it is considered to be the food of the gods in mythology. But I'm going Greek and already have an idea of what I will be making!

Remember, you have until next Monday to submit your post to the link-up-er thingy-do at the bottom of this post! Spread the word, and I cannot wait to begin! I am a growing fan of Mediterranean food so I'm especially excited about the chance to branch out in that manner! Here are some of the images inspiring me:
