"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called.

May your thoughts be as glad as the shamrocks
May your heart be as light as a song
May each day bring you bright
Happy hours that stay with you all the year long.

Tabbouleh (Arabic: تبولة‎; also Tabouleh or Tabouli) is an Arabic salad dish, often used as part of a mezze. Its primary ingredients are bulgur, finely chopped parsley, mint, tomato, scallion (spring onion), and other herbs with lemon juice, olive oil and various seasonings, generally including black pepper and sometimes cinnamon and allspice. In Lebanon, where the dish originated, it is often eaten by scooping it up in Romaine lettuce leaves. It is also eaten with pocket bread. Tabbouleh is also popular in Brazil and in the Dominican Republic (where it is known as tipili), due to Middle Eastern immigrants who settled there. Perhaps a little more unknown is the popularity of Tabbouleh among Kashmiri people. Tabbouleh (Arabic: تبولة‎; also Tabouleh or Tabouli) is an Arabic salad dish, often used as part of a mezze.
