~This made me think of myself, because one day I got a pamphlet about being vegetarian and I read it and I tried to make my dad a vegetarian too.
"In our case, it was the British who came for the oil."

"All the other relatives prepare their favorite Persian dishes and we place them next to the stuffed turkey with all the trimmings."
~I am really confused. I thought Firoozeh was from Iran, not Persia.
"Here can taste something, not buy it, and still have the clerk wish him a nice day.''
~Reading this quote, It made me think of Maple's gelato store because they let you try their ice cream. It's so random.

"Except for some sleepovers back in the second grade, I had never spent the night away from my parents."
~I feel like I have many things in common with Firoozeh Dumas because reading her book, I can relate to many things, like the one above.
"Finally, my father, with his "mind of an engineer," came up with a brilliant solution: a Hefty trash bag."

"I am the Christopher Columbus of my family."
~I find this really funny because Christopher Columbus was an evil man, and really didn't discover anything new.
Hearing him explain it made swimming seem as easy as baking a Betty Crocker cake from mix.
~I remember this summer trying to teach someone to swim. It was NOT as easy as baking a Betty Crocker cake from the mix!
