I think I’ve had camel milk chocolate in the UAE. But I can’t remember how it tasted. I struggle with camel and goat milk for things that I think should be sweet or dessert-y. They have a decidedly meat-y flavour
Thank you, Leslie. I find that when life turns extraordinary, a kind of hyper-awareness sets it. I appreciate you ‘feeling all the feels’ of the story!
Yes! "kind of hyper-awareness' is so accurate a way of describing those moments, almost like time slows and the mind can soak in more detail. Your writing captured it well.
I remember my favorite foods too. It’s always shocking to me when others don’t. These travel stories make me feel like I’m right there. You’re such a talented writer!
These stories of travel will make a great book, when combined!
Thanks, Kim. I’m having fun trawling up these stories of adventures long ago.
This is such a lovely, utterly surprising read 😊😊😊
Thanks, Noha— no one was more surprised than me! 😂

💯I had goats milk kulfi—decidedly feral! 😂

Unimagined—I suppose I only thought about camels as reservoirs of water, never wondering how they fed their young!
Thanks for reading!
