Hello precious Fellows!
Hope and Pray that life is beautiful in spite of all it's tests and tough times that come to us to bring out our true strength and to make us more strong.
Tomorrow in our country Pakistan and in many other islamic countries and communities muslims are celebrating Eid Ul Azha which we call as big Eid followed by our Eid ul Fitar that comes at the end of Ramadan .
Eid ul Azha comes after two months and ten days after Ramadan. Markets are packed with people and shops are shining with decorative lightening . Hubby and kids left while ago for market to purchase sweets ,cakes,cold drinks and other grocery for the Eid day tomorrow.
My eldest son will arrive in Morning (inshaallah) .and will make our Eid day complete with his presence . Since week i was totally busy in house renewal resolution and today i gave it final touch .
Though i am terribly tired right now but family reunion and Eid day excitement is blowing away my tiredness slowly .
I am expecting visitors too so must be ready for this too.Eid Ul Azha is day of sacrifice so lots of mutton and beef is also expected which since few years we receive though but distribute to others as our stomach don't bear heavy dishes .
But some portion i keep to cook for my kids specially eldest one who eat fondly various dishes of meat.
Now i am leaving you with some pics (google image help) to share the sensation of this celebration!
It is 8 ;30 pm night ,i have to serve dinner when they get back so signing off for now with so many heartiest best wishes for all of you .
God Bless You All!!!
Your meal looks delicious and it is attractively served. Enjoy your holiday.
ReplyDeleteBaili, what a fun celebration! I'm so glad that your son gets to join you all tomorrow. Look at all the delicious food - what a feast! The grilled meat looks amazing. Loved to see all the sweet animals and the colorful hanging lanterns. I think I would enjoy browsing and looking at all that pretty jewelry. Although I don't wear much jewelry, I still like a few unique bracelets and earrings. The girls would love this section. Thanks for sharing with us this exciting day, a tradition that your country celebrates. : )
