Christmas Desserts

Festive Vegan Sweets Recipes

By Maninio Food & Travel Blog

The most wonderful time of the year is here! December! So close to Christmas and New Year’s Celebrations! And for a sweet-tooth like me, is the perfect excuse for more desserts. 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎅🎁🎄🎅🎁🎄🎅🎁🎄🎅🎁🎄🎅🎁 🎄🎄🎄🎄

I called Pinelopi Kyriazi from Maninio to ask her how to make traditional Greek Desserts with less sugar but tasteful. She prepared the following Christmas recipes:

Kourabiedes With Coconut Sugar

In Greece, before Christmas time, locals are famous for enjoying cooking the Traditional sweets. Kourabiedes, Melomakarona and Diples. 

From the start of winter season, which begins in December Greeks start making these Traditional sweets and the house smell like early Christmas!

Today we’ll talk about Kourampiedes! Have you ever tried them?? They are buttery Christmas cookies. In Greece, we sprinkle them with rose water and we cover them with iced sugar. In Kalamata (Greece) they prepare these cookies through the year. You can find them in big variations and shapes.

The sweet root can be found in Persia, from where the sweetness traveled all over the East, the Balkans and, of course, our country. Of course, like any famous sweet who respects himself, other countries, especially Lebanon, are also pardoning for his paternity, while we are in “Turkey”, Albania, but also in Hispanic countries under the name Polvoron.

Kurabiye in Turkish means biscuit, buttermilk or “fluffy” Greek translation of Kourampies.

The most likely version of the “arrival” of Kourabie in Greece, as well as many other recipes, is to arrive in the country with the luggage of the refugees from Asia Minor and more specifically from Smyrni.- Maninio.com

The Butter quality plays a big role in the success of Kourampiedes. Choose the best quality for the best results! 

If you are just Vegetarian use butter but today’s recipe is for all the Vegans! You can use any good quality of Vegan Butter. I used margarine with coconut and almond. It’s a new product in Greece and I decided to try it. The taste is not exactly like the original buttery Kourampie, because of the Vegan Butter. But equally delicious! – Maninio.com

Vegan Melomakarona

I’ve spent years making these Christmas Cookies which are a popular treat during the Festive time in Greece. Originally They are flavored with honey, thus their name “Melomakarona”. Believe me, I can eat a whole plate of them! I am so addicted! Dangerous addicted! No prescription required.  – Maninio.com

Vegan Melomakarona by Maninio
Vegan Melomakarona by Maninio

The Name of Melomakarona it means Honey Macarons. Macaroni comes from the Greek word “macaronia”, a dish served in the Medieval times at a funeral dinner (after a funeral). In the newer years a favorite sweet has been added to our favorite honey and so we arrived at our famous melomakarono (= melo + macaron). It was established as a Christmas sweet since our honey is considered as a symbol of welfare and creation since ancient times! That’s how good and joyful we expect to bring each new year. 

These Melomakarona are on less sweet side and Vegan. The Greeks love sugar and prefer to put a lot of sugar and honey on them. If you think it’s not possible to make Vegan Melomakarona, you haven’t tried mine.   Crunchy outside and juicy inside. Heavenly delicious! – Maninio.com

Community Building

Yes, Facebook Groups are all about building a strong community around a certain brand, cause, activity or a person. Simple as that!

Facebook Groups Basics

How to Use Facebook Groups

Visit Facebook Help Center to learn more useful basic steps about Facebook Groups.

 

The World of Groups

One billion people have already joined in Facebook Groups. That is a huge number, with countless possibilities of networking. Facebook has underlined several times that 10% of these people belong to “very meaningful”—communities that “quickly become the most important part of someone’s experience on Facebook.”

Facebook has made it easier for Facebook Page owners to create and link a group with a page, aiming to strengthen brand’s followers interaction. In other words, Facebook is providing for free an opportunity to build a kind of loyalty program within a group. This is how:

  • True interaction with followers
  • Focused promo actions
  • Rewards
  • Free value info
  • Previews
  • Bonus for active followers
  • Create a powerful ecosystem
  • Solid interaction and connection
  • Feedback from real people
  • A/B Testing before launching something new

 

How to Use Facebook Groups

Trust & Solid Connections

Connection and true interaction with real people and followers can benefit both sides. In one end people/followers grow a feeling of trust and in the other end brands remain on the same page with reality.

The 2017 Edelman Trust Barometer reveals that people tend to trust more someone that is close to themselves regarding any company information than any source which is related directly to a company’s or brand’s CEO.

How to Use Facebook Groups

 

How to create a Facebook Group

  1. Create a group
  2. Set a name for your group
  3. Invite new members
  4. Select the privacy level
  5. Personalize your group
  6. Add a cover photo, location, tags
  7. Start posting
  8. Create a calendar

 

Step 1: Create a group

Let’s see together how to create a new Facebook Group, set a name for your group, add members, select privacy settings and upload a cover photo.

Step 2: Group Privacy Settings

When you create a group, you can choose 3 privacy settings: Public, Closed and Secret. The table below shows who can join these groups and what people can see about them. You can visit the Facebook Help Center about Group Privacy Settings here>>

How to Use Facebook Groups

How to edit Facebook Group Settings

After you create your Facebook Group, you should edit the following sections:

Description – Tags – Location – Group type – Admin rights – Posts rights – Privacy settings – Linked other groups – Linked pages


 

Useful Tips

You can create as many groups as you like. But it would be wise to have one main Facebook Page & Group that will act as the parent of the following groups. For example, we have created a main group with the name IDEADECO with general info about Digital Marketing News. And for each service we provide, there is a dedicated Facebook Group such as Facebook Groups, Email Marketing, Content Marketing, Linkedin etc.

The main IDEADECO Facebook group is here. Feel free to join us:

Facebook Group Tips

Facebook Groups Guide

  • When you invite new members, try to keep in mind that people inside your group are humans with real lives and they don’t want to be disturbed over silly topics or spams. Respect others if you want to be respected. Share only valuable and trustworthy content.
  • Invitations should be personal and customized. And always choose quality over quantity. It is much better to have a group of 50 high-level professionals than a low-quality-network of 50.000 members.
  • Keep your posts relevant to the topic and set a gentle posting flow. For Social Media groups, twice a week is perfect. If there are 50 members and they are all active with 2 posts per week, that equals to 100 posts/notifications.
  • Pin the most important post of the group at the top. That may vary from time to time. Usually, admins prefer to pin the group’s rules.
  • Facebook groups are excellent for networking opportunities and this can also be scalable to infinity with the addition of linked groups. Choose wisely the groups you recommend to your members.
  • To stay in the loop spend some time in navigating throughout similar groups and make it a habit to check your group’s insights.
  • Ask your members if they can suggest any interesting new or secret group that it is suitable to be linked to yours.

How to Use Facebook Groups

Business Facebook Group Strategy

You have a popular  Facebook Page brand and you also keep an active Facebook group. And what else? What do you do with that?

Depending on the Industry or the Market your brand belongs, Facebook Groups can support your Digital Marketing Strategy in different ways. Here are the most important ones:

  • Grow your networking
  • Communicate with your followers
  • Turn haters into fans
  • Establish new products or services
  • Drive traffic to your website
  • Grow your mailing list
  • Offer to your community
  • Focus on trials and previews
  • Run polls and A/B promo testing
  • Stay active in discussions
  • Generate business leads
  • Find inspiration
  • Offer AMA sessions
  • Offer video tutorials
  • Provide tips and how-to guides
  • Ask for feedback
  • Showcase your expertise
  • Find pro help from your community
  • Find great sources for new posts ideas
  • Post career opportunities
  • Remember to Engage consistently
  • Upload documents that may help your members
  • Spot your next ambassadors

The most important tip is to make time for your Facebook Groups and stick to your schedule as close as possible. It is an ongoing process without limitations or boundaries.

Google Year of How

Google Trends 2017

According to the official Google Blog, 2017 was the year we asked “how…?” 

Simon Rogers (News Lab Data Editor) points out that:

“As 2017 draws to a close, it’s time to look back on the year that was with our annual Year in Search. As we do every year, we analyzed Google Trends data to see what the world was searching for. “

“2017 was the year we asked “how…?” How do wildfires start? How to calm a dog during a storm? How to make a protest sign? In fact, all of the “how” searches you see in the video were searched at least 10 times more this year than ever before. These questions show our shared desire to understand our experiences, to come to each other’s aid, and, ultimately, to move our world forward. ” – source Google Blog

 

In 2017, the world asked, “how.” Questions like how to join the military, how to run for office, how to make a protest sign, how to be a good parent, and how to be a firefighter were asked more than ever before. Explore the moments that shaped this year at:

Year in Search 2017

 

Thank you, Google Team for reminding us

that we are all HUMANS!

A Morning for Climate Action

The consequences of climate change affect everyone, so it is up to each and every stakeholder in society to act. More than 50 speakers: NGOs, entrepreneurs, investors, government members, local stakeholders and scientists will meet to take action around the four round tables of the One Planet Summit morning. The goal is to identify and implement tangible solutions and mobilize public and private funding to enable large-scale deployment – including in the most vulnerable countries.

+ Why Use a WordPress Support Service? Fix My WordPress - FixMyWP

Why Use a WordPress Support Service?

Support Service is Vital

The peace of mind that a WordPress Support Company can provide will allow you to enjoy your journey with a WordPress website. It is way better to spend time on creating your content than on fixing common website issues!

Although WordPress is easy to get started, many underestimate what is involved in maintaining a WordPress website. It can be very time-consuming and is fairly tedious too.

That is why many people use WordPress support services such as Fix MY WP. These maintenance support companies provide a range of services and ensure that your website is safe and running efficiently.

Before we look at why someone would pay a company to maintain their WordPress websites, let’s first look at what is involved in maintaining a WordPress website.


WordPress Website Maintainance

Here is a list of essential tasks that every WordPress user should make a priority.

-Software Updates

When it comes to updates, WordPress is miles ahead of its competition. The platform supports automatic background updates so that minor and major core updates can be processed behind the scenes.

Whilst theme and plugin updates can also be updated in the background, it is better to perform updates manually through the WordPress admin area so that you can check that the upgrades went ahead with no problems. A simple error in an updated WordPress theme or plugin can be enough to crash your website, which makes updating them automatically risky.

Keeping WordPress up to date is one of the simplest administrative tasks for a WordPress user, however, it is also one of the most important.

-Uptime Monitoring

The longer a website remains offline, the more traffic and revenue your business will lose. You, therefore, want to be informed about any downtime immediately.

There are a number of uptime monitoring services available online that will inform you when your website goes offline so that you can investigate an error on your website as soon as possible.

-Security and Cleanups

As a WordPress website owner, you need to stay vigilant and ensure that WordPress is always up to date. You also need to ensure that your themes and plugins are up to date and do not have any security holes or vulnerabilities.

WordPress websites are constantly under threat from hackers who want to steal information or install malware on your website. Failure to be proactive about the security of your website is guaranteed to increase your risk of an attack.

-Backups and Restores

Do not become complacent and assume that nothing will go wrong. It can and it will.

Even experienced WordPress website owners need to revert to external backups to restore their website from time to time. This may be necessary due to your hosting company’s server going down, your website being hacked, or simply because you made a mistake when administrating your website.

Backup your website regularly to ensure that anything goes wrong, you do not lose all of your data.

-Spam Cleaning

Spam is a major problem for all websites. Even if you disable registration in WordPress, adopt a strict commenting policy, and use a good anti-spam WordPress plugin, a lot of spam is still going to get through.

Spam cleaning is a boring unrewarding task, but it is something that unfortunately needs to be done.

-Website Performance

A slow loading website will make people click the back button on their browser. Since website speed is a ranking factor, poor performance will also affect your search engine ranking and reduce the amount of organic traffic your website receives.

It is therefore imperative that you optimize your WordPress websites

You can optimize your website in a number of ways. This includes database optimization (e.g. fewer revisions), page caching, and utilizing a content delivery network.

-Regular Checkups

Things can go wrong and things will go wrong.

Even when your WordPress websites have been set up correctly and optimized, you still need to regularly check your website to ensure that everything is OK.


The Benefits of WordPress Support Services

If maintaining a WordPress website is not technically difficult, why do people use WordPress support services?

There are many benefits to using a WordPress Support Service, but in my opinion, there are three main reasons website owners would outsource WordPress Maintenance work.

  • The time it saves
  • Peace of mind
  • Convenience

Maintaining a WordPress website and ensuring that it remains secure and optimized can be time-consuming. Hiring a support company to take responsibility for maintaining your WordPress websites means that you can focus your time and energy on more important tasks.

The peace of mind that a WordPress Support Company can provide cannot be underestimated.

WordPress support companies pay close attention to current security issues which means that there is less risk of security and performance issues cropping up. If any problem does arise on your website, you are safe in the knowledge that you have a team of experienced WordPress users working on fixing the issue.

Those of you who have spent hours trying to recover data or find out which WordPress plugin is crashing their website will appreciate how stressful maintaining a WordPress website can be.

Website maintenance is also quite boring and repetitive so being able to hand over this work to someone else is incredibly convenient.

WordPress support companies also provide technical support. Fix My WP, for example, offer 24-hour email support to their customers. Being able to get technical help on such short notice is great for non-technical users and WordPress users who are short on time.

By paying a small fee to a support company you can free up hours of your time every week and increase your bottom line.

+ Social Hackers Academy

Social Hackers Academy

Non-Profit Organization

Social Hackers Academy is the first tech education school in Athens for vulnerable groups.

Today there are 62,000 refugees permanent located in Greece. Due to the economic crisis, Greece is one of the least prepared in Europe to deal with this stream of people. Currently, basic necessities are financially covered in a great amount by government organizations and NGOs. But very little money is invested in sustainable solutions to the arising issue of formal education and skills training. Social Hackers Academy was founded to fill in the gap of education and skills training.

September of 2017 was the Social Hackers Academy starting point. The SHA launched a code school to teach students how to become web developers. The main goal is to provide an opportunity and a path out of the camps and towards a dignified, financially independent life.

Digital Nomads List

Digital Nomads

Digital Nomads are people who use telecommunications and digital technologies to earn a living and, more generally, conduct their lives in a nomadic manner. They often work remotely from foreign countries or coffee shops or public libraries or co-working spaces.

“Traveling around the world has taught me to how to be more social, adapt, be more flexible, and, most importantly, understand nonverbal communication a lot better. It has helped me figure out situations even when I can’t understand them. It has made me more independent, more open, and, overall, just a better person. There’s no reason to be scared that you might not have “it” in you. You’d be surprised how often you can surprise yourself.” – Kepnes Founder of NomadicMatt.com

Nomadic Matt is the Example

“The Dutch have a saying “He who is outside his door has the hardest part of his journey behind him.” Life on the road is a lot easier than you think. It’s the decision to take that step out the door that is the hardest part because it requires the most change. You’re leaving your old life for a new one. I know what it is like – I’ve been there many times but travel is a very rewarding experience and you shouldn’t let fear hold you back. Below are some uplifting and inspiring posts to help you on your journey.” – NomadicMatt.com

BeUnsettled.co

Unsettled is for those of us who embrace uncertainty and value meaningful human connection. Who realize that feeling a little bit “unsettled” is a positive impulse for change, innovation, and exploration. Who believe that it’s in times of transition, travel, and movement when we feel most alive, inspired, and receptive to the people and ideas that spark growth.

                                                         * * * * * * * * * *

The Unsettled community itself consists of dreamers and doers, designers and developers, explorers and entrepreneurs. We are not a complacent group; we do not settle. In fact, we are a bit of a paradox. Our interests, skills, and life experiences are vastly different, and yet they bring us together in our common desire to learn from each other and improve our own lives.
