| Salam, It's Eid!! Time to load up on the goodies and gain all of the weight lost in Ramadan (what weight lost?).^_~ So what kind of goodies do you make especially for the occasion of Eid? In many Egyptian households the following are a tradition: Kahk al Eid (date cookies) Araeesh (biscuits made with yansoon (english: Anis) Almond cookies sprinkled with icing sugar. When I was young my Mom used to make huge batches of kahk and araeesh, almost a large box full, and distribute them at the Eid prayer. These days though, she doesn't have enough time and energy so she makes just enough for our family and a few close friends. Sometimes we make Kunafa and Atayf (patties stuffed with nuts and soaked with honey syrup) but these are more of a Ramadan tradition. salam & EID MUBARAK merimda |

| Salaams and Eid Mubarak!! Y'know, when you go to the Eid Prayer, you end up saying the same thing over and over again: "SALAAMAKUM!! EID MUBARAK! HOW ARE YOU! I'M FINE ALHAMDULLILLAH!!! OH MY GOD YOU LOOK SOOOOO NICE....KAY TALK TO YOU LATER..." and again to another person: "SALAAMAKUM!! EID MUBARAK! HOW ARE YOU! I'M FINE ALHAMDULLILLAH!!! OH MY GOD YOU LOOK SOOOOO NICE....KAY TALK TO YOU LATER..." and so on... Anyways at my house (and i swear at nearly every other desi house) there is always Saviyah (Vermicilli cooked in milk) and Haleem (ohhhhh that is soooo good. Some sort of a meat dish), Biryani and Pilau and LOADS of Gulab Jamun (some sort of ball thang). And of course you get variations every year. Kay, salaams and love to y'all. Aisha |
