The Dog Jumps - הכלב קופץ

Sunday was the big dinner day for my birthday. Idan and I got up early and went to Patterson, about 25 minutes away from Hoboken. This area is known to have a large Arab population and we figured there would be great stores there to buy food for my Moroccan feast.

We found a place, Nouri Bros., it is labeled as a Syrian market, but it might be better described at pan-Arab. After shopping for pita, labne, zaater, a tagine, fruits, olives, and on and on, we returned home and Idan cooked up a storm! Creating a delicious lamb and dried fruit tagine with salads and other delicious dishes with ease. It was the best birthday meal anyone could imagine.

We lugged everything over to Patrick’s and all my pals joined us for the evening. Tons and tons of food was consumed by all! Then we soaked in Patrick’s heffneresque backyard hot tub under the stars.
