Well. Here it is. Shahar Shambeh Suri--where Iranians the world over jump over fire to symbolize the end of the year and ring in the new in a Zoroastian ritual. Couple of things you should know. I've never done this before in memory, even though I was born in Teheran. My husband is English. We don't have a garden, a fire pit or a barbecue. This is very, very homemade. In any case, we rocked it. This one's for you, mom and dad.

Nicely done! Bill told me about your email and decided we should join in. 10:15 and already in bed we remembered, jumped up, found a candle and leapt!
