Stella/Melina #5: Queen of Hearts

Here you go guys.... pic from Ghawazee


Oh God don't get me started on her hair I love it!!

 

Cool pic! Thanks Natty!

Her hair is soooo pretty! I would sell my sister for it (that's not saying much just kidding)

 

She was wonderful in Due South. She played one of the most ambiguous characters ever and, right to the very end, the viewer didn't know what her intentions really were.

 

Thanks Nat and Debbie for the pic. She looked so young...And Paul Gross looked so hot in an RCMP uniform. Rrrr! :lol: :lol:

 

Wow. Melina looks so young in that piccy!

Thanks Natty!

 

Hello people! What's up? Anyway, I would just like to say that Melina was in the latest issue of In Style magazine. If you got it, then check it out. As usual, she looked amazing. Too bad I can't post the pic in here since my scanner conked out a while back. :lol:

 

Ok this is totally random but I found one of her favorite recipes


Melina Kanakaredes's Stuffed Grape Leaves with Avgolemono (Dolmathes)
Serves 8

1 jar grape leaves in brine (16 oz.)
1/2 lb. ground pork
1/2 lb. ground beef
1 1/2 cups minced onion
1 cup uncooked rice
1 cup dry white wine
2 tbsp chopped mint
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup olive oil
3 eggs
1 cup fresh lemon juice

Rinse grape leaves well. Place in large bowl covered with cold water for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine meat, onion, rice, white wine, mint, salt and pepper.
Drain leaves and pat dry. Place 1 leaf, vein side up on work surface. Place a heaping tablespoon of filling in center, near the stem end of the leaf. Fold the stem end over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll jelly-roll style. Line the bottom of a Dutch oven with 6 grape leaves, seam-side down. Continue rolling remaining grape leaves, fitting them snugly into Dutch oven, making a second layer as necessary. Keeping a snug fit ensure that the leaves will not unfold or come loose. Cover filled grape leaves with 6 remaining grape leaves. Pour 1 cup chicken broth over leaves and drizzle with olive oil. Weigh down leaves with a heatproof plate. Cover and simmer over low heat, 35-40 minutes or until rice is cooked.
In medium saucepan heat 1 cup chicken broth; keep warm.
In bowl with electric beater, beat eggs until thickened. Add in lemon juice and ½ cup of the hot chicken broth into the egg mixture. Whisk this mixture back into the remaining chicken broth in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thick and coats the back of a spoon. Do not let mixture boil or it will curdle. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with stuffed grape leaves.

If someone else has posted this I'm sorry!

 

Here is a picture of Melina at the second annual Pink Party to support breast cancer

She says "I love pink," Wearing a blouse designed by her friend Claudette, who is starting her own clothing line. "I have two little girls—I'd better love pink!"
