A beautiful woman to whom I gave a healing session shared a story with me, and I would like to share it with you, too.

When she was a child, they had a family neighbor, Geraldine. Geraldine was a Palestinian from the Gaza strip, and they all called her Aunt Geri. Aunt Geri was married to a man who was also from the Gaza strip and they had four children.

She used to make a special salad with tomatoes, feta cheese, fresh dill, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Apparently, Aunt Geri was very picky about her tomatoes - they had to be just right. I giggled when I heard it because if you knew me, you would know that I would probably say something similar.

Sadly, Aunt Geri’s husband passed away, and giving to her tradition, she remarried – to her brother-in-law. Then she moved back to the Gaza strip.

Little did she know, her salad was a legacy and became known as “The Gaza Salad.”

Now, there are three generations who have been raised with The Gaza Salad, and apparently, they can’t live without it.
