This morning’s breakfast smelled like home, tasted like home and left me with a deep longing for home. The freshly baked #زعتر #manoush reminded me of the the mornings, back in my village in lebanon, that I would wake up to Ouma’s voice, after she’d have spent hours making saj bread, calling out to tell us that the #zaatar bread were ready. I could almost see my mother, with her grey hair hidden underneath a black scarf, squatting next to the fire, feeding it with wood and placing the zaatar (oregano) straight onto the moon shaped saj. Yes, the good old days. They were truly golden. I cannot wait to be by those same mountains one day soon connecting with the spirit of the village and that of my mother.
Hope you are all having an amazing weekend. Love and blessings to you all. ❤️
