Here’s a nice picture of me and Liz at the Bowery Poetry Club. Robin Hoffman made me look very pure as a poet, and has our gestures down pat in her sketch. (Ezi has promised to prepare the video of the program too, but we need to have patience)

 

Oren brought us Knafeh from Nazareth the other day, but I was in no condition to taste them, being restricted to toast and tea. As soon as my stomach could take it, tonight, I gobbled one down. Oh my goodness, I gobbled down three. This knafeh is the most amazing food I’ve ever eaten. Worth every sharp pain I am having now. You may say that the best knafeh is really from Nablus, knafeh nabulsia. But I don’t even remember the taste of knafe from Nablus – it was so long ago.
