We'll make this for our next dinner club, and we'll focus on Gaza. Not just on its oppression, but also on its samud and joie-de-vivre and (I'm sure) its delicious food. Bless you for this post!

Palestine and its inhabitants are a gigantic heartbreak. On the other hand, here we have Leila's mom preparing what looks like a delicious stew. Gazans' / Palestinians' cultural heritage is endless. That's their strength. So many lessons to be learned, there. An occasional reader, here [I will *finally* bookmark the site, now!], Leila introduced me to a near magical plant, purslane, in a previous post. [see wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portulaca_oleracea]. For those who may have missed it: Baqla vegetarian stew: http://www.gazamom.com/2009/08/ramadan-recipes-meatless-baqla-stew-with-chickpeas/ It's wonderful. I'm now growing my own purslane [seeds available, curiously, on Amazon], probably one of the most nutritious plants on earth. Thank you, Leila. Best regards to you and your sweet family.
