A few weeks ago, I ended my 40 day fast from spending money on restaurants and fast food. What better way to celebrate with good food, good friends, and a belly dancer (another first!). When we first arrived, I received my complementary mint tea. After about fifteen cups of tea, two bathroom trips, and a realization that the tea is loaded with sugar, I ended my love affair with the sugary substance. We ate soup, vegetables, lamb, chicken, quail, baklava, and an interesting camel cake.
