One Week Before Eid

With a blink of an eye, 1 month of Ramadhan will be coming to a close, cookies are being baked, new clothes are bought and looked at; waiting to be worn on the morning of Eid. Homes will be cleaned, new glasses, plates, everything will be dusted from cabinets and set on table for families and friends to enjoy food, drinks and more food.

I have yet to clean, dust, buy any clothes, bring down curtains that need washing, together with the windows that need extreme cleaning. I wish i have the same excitement or enthusiasm as many of my friends, but i know a few who thinks it's more of a big deal for kids! But, as every year, the excitement will creep up on me during the last days where i will be cleaning like mad, running around getting all the last minute things for home and family. And the last bit, cooking Bryani on charcoal stove! Dear Lord, i have been doing this for years, and every year, my legs and arms would be aching like mad, but, it's nice when you see others enjoying the food!


To all......

A Happy and Bless Eid!
Maaf Zahir Batin
