Saint Fanourios Pie

Today Georgios told us all about Saint Fanourios. He is the Greek Orthodox patron saint of lost items. He has his own pie (there is no Greek word for cake, so it is known as a pie), which consists of seven ingredients; olive oil, flour, sugar, raisins, walnuts, cinnamon and orange. If you lose something you can bake this cake and St. Fanourios will help you find what you've misplaced. This also applies if you happen to be an unmarried woman who is yet to find her husband! Sleeping with a slice of the cake under your pillow will make you dream of the man you're going to marry. A pretty impressive cake huh?! And as it contains no eggs or butter, it's vegan, so everyone can enjoy its mystical powers and tasty deliciousness.
