I got it as a present from Gruni Uminer from the Chabbad House at Chesnut Hill. It was a huge pleasure for me to decorate the room where the class took place !!! I am glad to see, by your dedication, that it brought you back good memories from your home town. I wish I had been able to be there!!! I made this Shabbat (Parsha Beshalach) all about Syrian food...and, although my husband is Persian and guests were from all over the world expet Syria, they all LOVED it!! I would like to ask you where can I find the same Tamarind paste you gave Gruni (she gave me the leftovers) I have used it up and cannot find anything like it kosher here...I tried to look up Sophia's foods in Deal, NY but was not able to find them. All the best and thank you so much!! rbps@hotmail.com Reyna Dear Poopa,
