2 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Place the bulghur in a large bowl, pour in the boiling water, and add the lemon juice, olive oil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Stir, then allow to stand at room temperature for about 1 hour.

this my favorite food ever, stuffed grape leaves. it has rice inside it .. some people like to stuffed it with ground beef. the best part of this is the potatoes and the olive oil and of course the lemon. have you ever had it before? do you like it or not?

One of the places that you shouldnt miss when you visit NYC is the Liberty Statues. We took the cruise, Water taxi, that's the name of the company. The trip is for an hour and they show you Manhattan, the world center, liberty statues and the two bridges, manhattan and brooklyn. the tickets are $25 for a person. i had a coupon from smartsave, it was $5 off.
