It has almost become a "tradition" to go to Auntie (or "Khalah" in Arabic) Salma's home whenever we're in Tunisia. Since she has no children, she feels very attached to her nephews and nieces. My Aunt lives in Hammam Al-Anf, or - as Tunisians call it, "Hammam Linff," a small city about 40 minutes away from the capitol. This summer, my Aunt was so nice, in that she decided she was going to invite my paternal grandparents, as well as my two paternal Aunts over... It was like a mini family reunion that was held at her home...This was like few days before Dad and our neighbors came to Tunisia... 
Can you believe this is the view from my Aunt's kitchen's window?
- The food was SO delicious. We had dinner on the balcony. My aunt made okra stew (she browned the okra beans for a bit before letting them cook in the stew, so they were very delicious and added flavor to the stew), noodles with meat, and lettuce salad that contained apples and chopped canned pineapples and was topped with walnuts; the salad dressing was made with the liquid from the canned pineapples + creme fresh. It was the first time I'd eaten a salad like that, but it was very tasty. All dishes you see on the table above are from her wedding set. We had Tunisian sweets, ice cream, and fruits. And let's not forget the Tunisian mint tea with pine nuts!
