There are two food items that I associate with Amir – 1998 Gan Eden Black Muscat kosher wine, and Trader Joe’s Bruschetta tomato topping. Both of these are very delicious foodstuffs that I hadn’t seen until Amir brought them back home and shared them when we were roommates at Stanford. Now these items are regulars in my kitchen, and they often bring back good memories and a silent toast to Amir.
