Hehehe... the grapeleaf-rolling, fortunately, is one thing I have down pat. That isn't to say I wouldn't love to visit! Actually, cooking with someone close to my own age with the same culinary/cultural heritage would be really neat; I've only ever cooked the Lebanese food with my aunt (which is where I learned the few things I do cook). My friends have always loved eating the stuff, but nobody ever wants to stand in the kitchen and chop parsley and mint for an hour for a huge batch of tabbouleh, haha.
I will definitely look for that cookbook! I'm just looking to see what else is out there, basically. I grew up eating the same handful of Middle Eastern foods, mostly at my grandmother's - my mother did all the cooking at home, and she's not the Lebanese half of the family.
Anyway, I'm babbling. Thank you! I'm off to find that book on Amazon right now.
