The Only Place Where You Can Read My Thoughts!
The Adha ritual we can never go without - BBQ - YAY!!!

So it's that time of the year again, when the whole family gathers at one place and we do good old BBQ.

 

Be it hot or cold, this never stopped us from enjoying this one ritual that puts all of us in one place, sharing the effort and the fun.

 

This year, it happened to be very cold, and nonetheless; my father and my brother in law set to work in the cold weather, preparing and grilling … and at the end of it we sat and enjoyed the yummy food, and of course there were lots of appetizers and after lunch goodies, fruits and sweets.

 

My camera was a witness to some of the action, but I could not take many pictures because of the cold, so I leave you with the best two!

 

Happy Eid to all!!


My brother in law is watching over the grill and dad is in the back preparing more!!

The Grill looks inviting, don't you think?

Ok, my mind is going, you are starting to bring out wonderful old memories

Note to self: plan for lots of Barbecues like Anolita's family, and I want to be the 3ammo like Annolita's Brother in law, except, I want to be wearing those sleaveless undershirts, with a Ghutra/Bandana on my head. I want lots of kids playing around and my wife shouting at me to get the fire going as people are starting to get irritated. hmmmmmmm
Did you see the can of worms you just opened up in my head ?

2nd Note to Self: Invest in Arabic Barbecue set. and for heaven's sake NO Vegetarian Wife (God Forbid).

Thanks for the wonderful post !
