EAT THIS! Going Greek -a homemade creamy Greek dressing recipe

I am getting ready to go to  Sommerville for their annual "Greek Festival" with my friend Jen"Crazypants"Fitzgerald. It is so much fun!! They have it every year  on top of a huge hill under big white lit up tents. There is music and dancing...and the always welcomed  big fat kiss bestowed upon me courtesy of "Nick the Greek" during my yearly exchange of money for a beautiful coined dancing skirt that he also takes  the liberty of tying around my waist. AND THE FOOD......oh my god the food! Amazing roasted lamb and vegetables , spinach pie, Baklava drowned in honey and the BEST Greek salad I have ever had in my life! 
Last year I was able to finagle the recipe out of one of the Greek ladies serving the food...Mary Pantazopoulos..so I wanted to share this with you.
This is the perfect weather for some roasted lamb or pot roast and nothing goes better then a great Greek salad! This is a creamier version and they use buttermilk to thicken it up.I also like to use this to marinate my meats in. So if you have some steak , chicken or lamb tips this works beautifully! "OPA!!"

Creamy Greek Dressing
1/2 cup Olive oil
1/4 cup wine vinegar
1tsp sugar
1 clove of garlic finely minced
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp dill
1/2 cup feta
1/2 cup buttermilk
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper

Put all ingredients in the food processor or blender blend until smooth. Serve over salad.
