#SummerSouls Day 15: Kanafani wrote in a matter-of-fact yet also highly intimate manner – like stories that are being whispered around a #Camp #campfire. Most are horror stories that one would not imagine could happen to another human being – yet these stories are snapshots of actual lived experiences of people, who are still pretty much going through what Kanafani had surfaced here.

#ThankfulThoughts Day 4: Why cake when you can kunafa? Makes so much more sense to me: #CommonSenseDay. See here nutella kunafa with pistachio drizzles and cheese with kheshna kunafa with assorted nuts. I have said it before but will say it again - Middle Eastern desserts are the absolute best.

Eggs Thanks yet again for leaving us ‘high and dry‘ with the endless mouth watering food images LOL 🤤😋😍😃 4y
