Too lazy to try this? Make a barter offer and I will bake some for you - eshmun@shaw.ca -
And a follower that I have not met until then took me up on it.
This follower wanted to treat an older Lebanese neighbour of hers who has been here for a long time and misses the food from his country. She offered to make me a scarf in return for a tray of Sfoof for her neighbour.
The Sfoof seem to have been a hit with the neighbour who said they tasted just like home.
In return, I got an extremely elegant handmade wool scarf - grey with coloured specks in it.
You know who you are, thank you very much again and it was a pleasure meeting you in person.
Anyone else looking to barter something for Sfoof, offer is on for another month.
And the gifting did not stop at Sfoof.
Two months ago today, I ran a contest inviting readers to publicly follow the blog and win cookies (see Follow the Blog, Win Cookies).
In the month of May, somerville kitchen followers increased by 42% percent. Which meant dozens of cookies delivered throughout the city. There were peanut butter cookies (see Cookie Factory) and chocolate cookies.
A new follower who liked the cookies so much took this picture and tagged it on somerville kitchen Facebook page (search for somerville kitchen if you want to be our friend on Facebook).
Given the popularity of the contest, it is back on - any new public followers in the month of July will get a jar of cookie.
Thank you all who have been following somerville kitchen for the past 11 months and making it a fun community. The traffic has been increasing by 10% every month with close to 1800 page views in May alone. Look for exciting novelties on the one year anniversary coming up and please keep following.
