So its like the 7th day after Eid today. And I'm still not over the Eid mood. Perhaps its because I still have a little Mehndi (henna) left on my hands to remind me of it. This Eid was fun. The heavy showers on Eid day didnt affect my high spirits at all. We went to visit the elders of our family and I could also fortunately make a visit to my best friends home with my parents !. We had a looot of guests over at our place on the second day and the third too but we did go out in the evening. Eid is typically celebrated for three days and everyone makes the most out of it !

A part and parcel of Eid is all that wonderful food !! The Eid cakes, the mithai (traditional sweets) and the Saiwayyan (vermicilli cooked in milk and dry fruits)..yumm yumm yumm. I better go search the refrigerator if there's any left :) :)

I love Eid time......its such a happy time....and oh I love eating Sheer khorma......not too fond of mithai though. Isnt it just the best thing to finish up the leftover sweet dishes later.....

That is SO pretty! I have always wanted to get a henna tattoo but I have never seen one as intricate and pretty as yours! I guess I will just have to come to Pakistan to get one because the ones in the US don't even compare! haha
ReplyDelete@ Jana - Wasalam ! I knew you'd say this :) Actually this Eid was so busy that I wasnt able to take any pics. But dont worry, I'll wear the same dress again, take a pic, and post it here, very soon :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I didnt mention it there ( my comment box on fb kept getting stuck) but your dress looked really pretty. Orange suits you :)
