as i read Donia Bijan's "Maman's Homesick Pie",

i wanted to taste every sentence she wrote.
if you are interested in duck recipes, diaspora,
or the iranian revolution, read her book.

lentils. rice. raisins. eggplant.

saffron. rosewater. pistachio.

(in ice cream waffle sandwich form).

i will eat this every day from now on.
