Azul fellow Ataturkians,
well, returning after what seems like a long absence... with more mad and perhaps certifiably strange ideas. Nice to see Hakan's recipes - perhaps we should really go on with the restaurant idea?
My latest interest has developed around the Bektashi Sufi's and Alevi's, combined with a slowly developing enquiry into the Ottoman Empire....
"There are five kinds of people: Gentle men who give but don't eat; Generous men who eat and give; Mean men who eat and don't give; Hungry men who can neither give nor eat; Terrible, ambitious men who eat and do not give - and work to stop others from giving."
- Haji Bektash Veli
