...to all our friends celebrating Eid.
The oil lamps are in the driveway are lit and looks fantastic. A couple of years ago my family gave up on the normal coloured bulbs that decorate houses at this time of year and instead going back to the traditional oil lamps - it's much simpler no need to replace bulbs and it's handy for the fireworks. Don't know what it is this year but the fireworks seem to be bigger and louder. Donncha a.k.a Mr. Meldrew was not impressed when we tried to put the little ones to bed.
We've got two big days ahead of us, welcoming, greeting and of course feeding. The usual menu....saffron rice, chicken curry, beef rendang, pineapple patchree and lots of nibbles and sweets to go with it. Look forward to having a decent lunch but even more to my first breakfast in 30 days....a big pot of tea and a big bowl of porridge!
Now I have to insert the $$$ into the green envelopes which is a bit like leaving the wrapping for Christmas Eve!
