Not far from the Corniche along the Eastern Harbor in Alexandria, Egypt, there's El Fallah, a tiny place that only makes one thing: liver sandwiches. You say liver sandwich in Alexandria and people know you're talking about this spot — it's so famous that the owner has dozens of pictures ...

It is already 1 p.m. and I need to stay seated long enough to write this column. My list for today isn't getting done like I wanted to. Daughter Loretta and her children just left for home.
