to celebrate the Egyptian liberation, I had a tin of their national dish, foul medammes. A lightly spiced (mostly cumin) hot salad of fava beans.

Isn't it great news! I stayed up last night for Mubarak's speach. He rambled on and was very arrogant and disapointing. I hope he is not going to continue to pull the strings in the background!

I just wish them peace in the coming days and months and hope that they get the democracy they so righly deserve and want.
