Nowruz

We helped our friend Farshad ring in his 50th birfday in notable style at a party thrown by his dear wife Arti. As his birfday coincides with Nowruz (enlace en español), this was a chance for the Iranian community to celebrate their new year as well. The star of the show was undoubtedbly their 1 year old daughter who stayed up very late partying with the adults. The sangria was popular (see the photo from Arti with all that was left over, not much!) and both Tobias and Miryam had a great time. Tobias did not earn any kudos for checking his crackberry during the party but there must have been some important information to research on the spot! Note the photo of Miryam - sporting a bindi - and Tobias together was taken by our good (but 5'5") friend which affects the perspective.
