So, I realized the other day that the holidays are approaching. I had completely forgotten about Halloween until my host mom came home from the US with Brach's candy corn. I have always loved the stuff, but in recent years I've been turned off by the thought of eating plastic. But having a few pieces sure reminded me of home!
Here in Cairo, we're all celebrating the end of Ramadan. That's it for holidays! I think we get Thanksgiving Day off of school... I'm planning to do all my touristy things that day!
But in other seasonal activities, it is now pomegranate season. Here's a picture of the tea I enjoyed after breakfast today. Notice the pomegranates:
Hi Sarah!
ReplyDeleteIt's very cool to read your blog. I'm so happy that you are getting to experience life in Cairo. Your blog is really amazing, by the way. Feels like I'm there too!
My blog is back up now after a brief hiatus. So your link should work now...
How can I pray for you?
Tom
