8*20*10

I have this beautiful friend named Michaelene. She loves to cook and drink and host wonderful parties. And she's really quite amazing at all those things so it always comes together quite nicely. She's had Chicken and Waffle, Cinco de Mayo, Bastille Day parties... all wonderful.

But the party she held on Wednesday takes the cake. This little lady is Lebanese, and she held a St. Mary's Party. So much Lebanese goodness! Needless to say, by the time I left her place I had garlic coming out my ears.

She made hummus and lebneh, a strained yogurt cheese that is to die for.


















She made dolmas. Is your mouth watering yet?


















And feta cheese, with herbs, onions, tomatoes...


















And for dessert she served a fried bread. She used chunks of stale baguette, fried them in butter and topped them with syrup. It was wonderful.
