Return to Sifnos

Something I’ve learned about living abroad is that the one thing you really cannot get has of way of becoming what you long for most. That living-in-a-hotel-with-my-colleagues lifestyle in Yemen made me long to be in crowded streets with people so much that the one day we spent in Geneva after flying out of Sana’a […]

If you open your photo stream and sit down and write what you did each month for the previous year, I think you will be astounded at all you did. In 2022, I moved from Algeria to Princeton, N.J. where I’m embracing an academic-adjacent life, small town charms, and the proximity of New York City. I also ate a good deal of oysters. New blog post up on NextDinnerParty.com taking a look back at a year that moved alchemically fast.
New blog post up (on NextDinnerParty.com) about our best week ever in Algeria: When 23 musicians came together in the Sahara Desert for an epic concert, and four friends traveled to Algeria to be a part of it. And we hosted some of those incredible musicians at our house in the boho lounge.
(Heart)breaking news: DC Noodles has closed after 13 years on U Street. How many bowls of noodle soup have I slurped here? When I moved away, DC noodles spicy noodle soup is the single dish I craved the most and I’ve tried and failed to capture its sweet, sour, savory, peanuty taste countless times. I eat here on every single visit to DC, usually right away. Thanks for all the delicious meals, DC Noodles.
Started the year with a Tanzanian safari, rocked out in the Sahara desert at an amazing concert, biked around the Loire Valley, wrapped up our lives in Algeria, moved to Princeton NJ, relished in lots of quality time with family and friends. An eventful year! Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas 2022 from snowy Michigan!
We hosted our 6th Annual Holiday Spirit Cocktail Contest Party this past weekend. Back in Algiers, this tradition grew to epic proportions (live bands, 80 guests, a kitchen staff). Hosting in our one bedroom Princeton apartment was significantly less grand but still extremely festive and fun. (Click on link in bio if you’re like “what IS a cocktail contest?”
