The deeply personal, yet public projects you see on here are the outcome of the workshop facilitated by Farah Wael Hallaba "Collaborative Anthropology Workshop; Family & Life History, class identity and Liminality" in which participants got introduced to the world of social anthropology and learnt how they can use its methodologies to look into their own family and life histories and write auto-ethnographies with the help of the inspiring, experienced and extremely helpful guest speakers who took part in some of the sessions; Lucie Ryzova, Joao Pina Cabral, Shahd Al Rawi, Samar Dwidar, and Noha Fikry.
The main theme throughout the 2-months duration of the workshop was the Egyptian middle class culture in family context but with such a rich and insightful topic, the discussions, naturally, branched out into a multitude of other topics that touched on both the contrasting and common aspects of our shared life in Egypt.
This website is meant to be live and ongoing, this collaborative workshop probing into the Egyptian middle class families will continuously be organised and its outcomes will be added to the site.
But we also welcome and invite you to be part of this project that attempts to contribute to decolonizing knowledge in Egypt, where we can provide bottom up anthropological/socio-historical knowledge about our experiences. You can be part of the workshops, or you can send us family pictures to keep it archived and alive, or send us blogs to "Sofra, Yummy" and share with us stories about dishes or meals that are part of your middle class family experience. This blog could be visual or written.

Some meals or food rituals have migrated from and to different cities in Egypt, and some other meals were given life into a family because of an aunt or a grandfather. Dinning tables and the traditions around them could be of a significant gender and social performance that informs us a lot about Egyptian family stories.
We are very excited to start blogging with you all, each one of us has a story about food and family.
Tell us your story, whether it is about if you eat the Fattah with red sauce or not, a meal that a member brought from another city, or how much your family loves Shay bi-Laban.

الأكلات والوصفات ممكن تحكيلنا كتيرعن اختلاف ثفاقتنا. تغيير بسيط في مقادير أي وصفة ممكن يحكي حكاية ثقافة بيئة وناس معينة. ومن خلال معرفة ده بيتفتح لنا أبواب كتير عن حكاوي تانية ليها علاقة بالاقتصاد أو الثقافة أو التاريخ، الخ...
حابين نتعرف أكتر عن حكاويكم مع الأكل. عندكوا أكلة معينة ماتت مع ناس ماتوا أو سافروا في العيلة؟ أو أكلة أنتوا الوحيدين اللي بتعملوها ومحدش بيعمل زيها؟ إيه الأكلات اللي لما رحتم محافظات تانية أو بلاد تانية لقيتوها بمقادير مختلفة؟ في أكلة معينة تاريخها مهم وحابين تحكوه؟
ابعتلونا في الاستمارة دي تجاربكم مع الأكل وهننشر كل تجربة في صفحة منفردة في مدونة عن الأكل بعنوان سفرة دايمة على موقعنا.
