I used to park at work next to a guy from Kuwait, we used to say hello and talk for a few minutes a few times a week. He asked me if I had eaten Kuwaiti food in the past. I was 23 and had never even heard of Kuwait so when he invited me to his family gathering I was excited. He explained it would be vegetarian. I wasn't a veg. then but being raised by a vegan that was no problem, I baked sweet bread and headed to his house. Well I had on my 6 inch stileto heels, 3 inch long fingernails and I had no idea I would be sitting on a pillow on the floor with a long mat rolled out in front of us.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Hi dear Donna, California,,,,, Wow wonderful warm place, I could not be able to visit. Think about this offer, Just two months, then we`ll have warm lovely weather, you are welcome whenever you want to visit Turkey, then do it now, just need to get cheap ticket to fly to Turkey, and do not think about the rest.
