ramadan kareem! agreed, highly anxious anticipating the long and (hot) days...with kids. allah give you tawfiq - keep us in your du'as. are the cupcakes and tea your iftar?;)

khair mubarak. 1 down 29 to go

[Mu Mu Design]

well the tea is! havent got around to making cupcakes yet. was hoping to make a nice victoria sponge for iftar, but we went fruit picking instead and after that I just was bouncing off walls. Insha'allah some cakes tomorrow! Hope your fast is going well x

thanks Lisa. Well the fast started today at 3am and ended tonight at 8.39pm, so that's a long time without food or drink. The food is actually OK but by two o'clock I was getting tetchy for an ice cold drink LOL. The boys wanted to fast a little bit too so we could all 'break fast' together in the evening, so they fast from 3.30pm. I tell them they dont have to, but they both enjoy the evening meal so much that they like to.

So, 1 down and 29 more to go!!

[Lisa L.]

Oh so you do the fast everyday for 30 days. I agree - the drinking would be the hardest. I must read up some more on this - it is fascinating to learn new things. Enjoy! Lisa L.

Happy Ramadan. I hope you are having a good month. I'm enjoying catching up on your blog. That cake picture is Phoebe's favourite in all our cookbooks. I always get "Mummy, can we make those pink cakes from the shoes book?" :)

[Mu Mu Design]

i know. i have to actually prohibit use of that book, because they just sit there salivating...
