Being divided just by the Black Sea from Turkey, Moldova is in no better state when it comes to the rural side ...the only thing that is different is the absence of veil. But this is the state of things in all the developing and underdeveloped world, so we should be so grateful for what we have. And I am sure most of us are, especially after visiting places and seeing the struggles one has to go through to survive ...as for hummus, interesting indeed, since I always associated the name to the chickpea.Adelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06562533762794995481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-58738497261768762612011-10-18T22:02:58.732-04:002011-10-18T22:02:58.732-04:00Mary, Thanks for the story behind the food!
