Medzmama & Bela Bartok

Many years ago, Marash Boy and Jivan Tabibian were sitting in the living room at 17 Dearborn Street in Springfield, Massachusetts, vociferously sharing their admiration for Bela Bartok.  Medzmama,  preparing their dinner in the kitchen, overhearing the conversation taking place two rooms away, called out, (in Armenian of course), "Why don't you invite him for shish kebab?"

Marash Boy never tires of telling the tale!
