Toffee Apples & Togas – a book
This is only a small book, but it is packed full with so much living, loves, friendships all bound together with tales of antiquity and ancient re-enactments. The author includes wonderful favourite ancient recipes.
Written by Rita Roberts, archaeologist (specialising in identifying ancient pottery), antique dealer, teacher, maker and seller of Roman sauces, bit player in the documentary ‘The Island’ to name some of her adventures. To call them occupations or careers would be misleading; they are so much more!
Rita was born in Birmingham in the UK, and now lives on the Greek island of Crete (I am green-eyed here). Rita has always followed her dreams, age has never been a barrier. I think her mantra is ‘it’s never to late to learn or to follow your dreams’. See more in interview: Rita Roberts Dream Chaser.
