My apartment outside of D.C. is largely made up of Ethiopians.
I am fascinated by the fact their rites developed out of their indigenous form of Judaism, which claimed to have been brought by the Queen of Sheba from Solomon’s Jerusalem.

My parents used to live in Crystal City. There was an amazing variety of ethnic food available! Our Eritreans had a food booth at the parish festival in October, but I didn’t have the nerve to try it, especially when the Colombians and Salvadorans were pressing grilled meat and pupusas on me ;-).
