Annual Eid celebrations

Clearly, the main activity of the annual Eid celebration remains attending a relative's residence. On this particular occasion, relatives make sure to see each other at home.  They are amused by a wide variety of dishes. The sweet flavour of the most significant meal, sewai , seems to be blending with joy and celebration. Even so, traditional recipes are significantly altered for the celebration.  During a visit to a relative's home, it became more apparent that not only did the dishes on the table resemble those of a five-star hotel, but also...  The golden-coloured cutlery placed on the table created the illusion of an upscale hotel. Each item placed on the table served as a reminder of the refined and opulent way of life.

New Year approaches fast


 


The big-sized linear door really remains stationary. Nobody approaches to push out the globular knocker. Inside, people dash between powder-pink pleating and marble countertops. 

After a little while, someone tries to open the large door that leads directly into another spacious room, where, indeed, a few people were already seated comfortably, sipping their coffee lightly and conversing while bent over a pot. 

Newly arrived persons humbly stand to greet each other with a hug hello. 

It is exceptionally icy cold on a belatedly departing December Saturday. Everyone is distinctly saying that the New Year is undeniably arriving. It is, as we well know, in a state of shift. 

It is not all descent and despair. While constant change might not be conducive to market stability, it has created a better opportunity for a new wave of confidence to rewrite the narratives of the past year and put its own stamp on some of the world’s most famous developments. 

The new year brings a fresh feeling; we can not confidently deny it. Will it come to my home? Asked a woman in a sari, amazingly. 

Let me clearly tell you, I won't cook daily normal foods if it comes to my particular residence! The woman said such words in a quite grave tone. 

Was the simple woman living in a remote village? She looked naive enough that she did not hesitate to utter such illogical words in any straightforward, ordinary manner. 

However, it appeared quite strange as the mobile sets are now reaching the remotest areas. The women are quite well-informed nowadays. Therefore, such expressions are perceived to be thoroughly mistaken in the present scenario when all information is reaching faster than sound.
