With M. spending a week J and I cajoled her into making a Syrian meal. Of course this meant inviting some of her friends and some of ours. The day was spent chopping, dicing, slicing but at the end there was tabuli, a number of pies, lentils and rice. Originally we'd planned to eat in the garden but the house was cooler.
And what else to do after the meal?
Belly dancing of course. Work off those calories.

I've just been catching up on everyone's blogs after a frantic five month gap.. sorry I didn't contact you re the Indian meal it will happen one day!
Talking of oriental food and this post,I was trying to find a Utube video to show you that I watched ages ago on how to make fattoush. It was just of a normal woman cooking in her tiny kitchen, no fancy camera angles, no funky music and no celebrity chef either, all you saw were the ingredients and the method. In the background you could see the window open and hear the noise of a Damascan street below. It was all you needed and it was perfect. It instantly transported you to Syria too. I'll keep looking for it.
