About this recipe

Coconut and nut stuffed dates are a must-try for those craving something sweet. Dates are a Middle Eastern delicacy with which we break our fast during Ramadan. This recipe shows you how to turn them into a delicious sweet treat by stuffing them with nuts and coconut.

Stuffing them with crushed nuts or coconut flakes is the best way to complement their sweet taste with some extra crunchiness.

Read to the end... and ask yourself, why?
Look closely at this photo. It may seem like just a building, but if you look closer, you’ll see holes — scars from a bomb that hit our home in 1983 by Isr-ael . But that’s not the story I’m here to tell. I’m here to talk about family, love, and what it means to grow up between two worlds. Scroll through 👉🏽 these photos and videos, and at the end, I hope you’ll ask yourself the same question I do: Why are we seen so differently?

I was born in Australia 🇦🇺 but my father wanted me to grow up in Lebanon 🇱🇧 surrounded by our family, our culture, and our traditions. He believed that we should grow up in the heart of our roots, amongst our people, to learn who we are and where we come from. And while we did, there was always this underlying reality—war, unrest, the world constantly chipping away at the places we call home 🥲

It’s ironic, isn’t it? In the West, there’s often resentment towards migrants and refugees. They ask why we come, but the truth is, we are here because the very countries they live in have been bombing ours for decades. We never wanted to leave our homes; we were forced to. Our families, our homes, and our childhood memories are left behind, often shattered, while we try to rebuild elsewhere❤️

My trip back home only a couple of month ago was wonderful. I spent time with family and created new memories that I’ll always hold dear. Some of the people you see in these photos, though, have already left their homes. Others are now forced to leave as well. And the rest? They wait with anxious hearts, knowing that more bombs will fall, knowing their world will soon be reduced to rubble 💔

I often wonder — why doesn’t the world see us, Arabs, as people who deserve to live in peace? Why is it that when they look at us, they see something different, something “other”? Take a moment to look at these photos and videos. At the end, you’ll see Gus and me, just two normal people, sharing a light moment, having some fun. 

Why is it that the world sees us as anything less than human💔
From Ghassan to Carlos, Miguel, and Agostino—each city, a new name, but the same laughs and love. No matter what he calls himself, he’s still my favourite travel buddy, making every moment unforgettable 🤗After six weeks of adventure, it’s a wrap for our holiday! Swipe through to see some snapshots of our selfies—you’ve followed our journey on my stories,which moment was your favourite? And wait till you see the last video—he’s got a funny way of saying ‘time to go home!’ 😂 haha or shall we say K.I.S.S.👇🏾
Photo dump! 🇱🇧 Loving every moment in Lebanon – the sights, the people, and of course the food! 😍
