I took a fabulous cooking class while on vacation in Morocco last year. It was the best part of the trip!

I like to make sour cherry rice (albaloo polo), a fabulous Persian dish that is a great accompaniment to dinner.

After reading the piece on The Kitchn about growing arugula, that's what I would put in mine!

My favorite thing to eat with tea is nice, juicy dates. But a chocolate chip cookie would be welcome too.

How about Animal, Vegetable, Miracle?

When I'm alone I love to have linguine with marinara sauce loaded with onions, capers, and olives. In fact, I'd love some right now!

I'm planning my dinner party guest list already...

I love vanilla caramel tea and a medley called "grandma's garden" that I get at a shop in Washington Sq.

Lovely color!

The chocolate one would look great on my husband's desk!

The round French oven! I'd use it to make "fesenjoon," a tasty Persian chicken stew in pomegranate and walnut sauce!
