Food conversations are torturous.
By the way, you know za'faraan is ridiculously expensive? More than gold I think.

kubah?
You don't know what kuba is? Here is what it looks like (I can't believe there is a FB page on it). I don't like it very much, but if it's with soup, I can eat it.

I know!!!!!!!! It's about $10 for a freakin' small container, no bigger than the size of my palm. My mom uses it on the zarda during Muharram, but it tastes and smells really good!

My mother brings me back qeema from the masjid in Muharram. Qeemat Najaf or Qeemat Karbala. I don't know which is which, but one of them is nicer than the other.
^ Meat is meat, right? 
It tastes all the same to me. I dunno, I guess we make here Samawa Qeemat (our cooks are from Samawa).
But, guess who just made khistenan and klitecha (my accent is terrible)? Well, not me, my madre. I rather starve than cook.

I'd spell it for you in Arabic, but it converts it to symbols, oh well.
I don't know...dough? LOL It's a dessert, it has a sugary taste to it, there's pistachio in the middle. If you want the ingredient, I can ask mom. I looked it up online, but couldn't find anything.

No, I just remembered it's also called "shakr lema". I found a website with its ingredients and there is a picture as well. http://www.aliraqi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=77977
It's really yummy, especially with tea!

Yes, over the phone they asked. I told them "When Saddam dies".
This was in the 80's.
I amost got my family horribly killed
They haven't asked since.
