EID MUBARAK!!!!

Eid Mubarak! I know it's a little late but I was just busy with my family. We decorated the house with lights and I made an Eid banner. I got presents for and from my whole family. My favorite was a iPod cover that my brother gave me. It's so pretty, shiny and sparkly! I also gave badam ka halwa (Almond sweet) to my urdu teacher in a jar. I will post the recipe for it on another day.

My outfit was red and purple and was from Pakistan. I also wore red choorian (bangles) that came from India. I got to do a sleepover at my cousins' house and we had an eid feast over there. Another day everyone came to our house for a family dinner. This Eid was so fun and exciting!

    The mehndi, chooriyan, your shoes and the ipod cover are simply wonderful. :)

    I think your Mom's mehndi (henna) is so much more artistic and delicate too.

    I wish I had more time to spend with you over Eid. Reading your account of all you did, it sounds so exciting.

    Lots of love to my dear Sum
