It's my husband's B-day today :dance: His first in the states and without family or friends (except me of course :D )

I'm making a roast leg of lamb and his favorite rice tonight... yummy :) I also managed to bake a cake yesterday before he got home from work and hide if from him - of course had to cook dinner after to cover the smell :lol: I will decorate it and wrap his present while I'm roasting the lamb. I have to leave work a few hours early for the lamb, but my boss is okay with it and I will make up the hours later :dance: Whoot!

Inshalla today will be a good day for him and he will be able to get ahold of his family to talk :)

Im very sorry, Aymerlu. That's just not right. I know you are happy to be home at long last! And please do not overdue it.

PB, I hope your husband has a wonderful birthday and that he loves his suprises!

Tammy, Your day will come. It just was not today. Stay hopeful . There are many here praying for you and your husband.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

I'm so sorry, Amy. (F) How are you holding up today?

Welcome home, Nicky! Love the pics!

It's nice to be home!!!!! Now here's a question. Why does my husband feel it's necessary to have all his arab friends over today???? I feel like poo, I look like poo and honestly, I really don't feel like dealing with anyone today. I don't wanna put on a happy face when I'm not happy. <_< Men are retarded. :wacko:

That would bug me too. Maybe take a good book to your bedroom and camp out while they're visiting. That's what I would do. I'm sure they'd understand why you don't feel like socializing.

Oh... I'm sorry about that one. Just don't let them in the door if they dont' bring you food :devil:

There was a thread awhile back about visiting the sick in MENA countries: You are considered rude if you don't make an appearance when someone visits you, being sick is not an excuse. It's supposed to make you feel better and give you some company while your sick. :wacko: I talked to the hubby about it after reading that, and he completely agrees :help: He says you have to visit the sick, it's considered rude if you don't, and more than that it's also considered a religous obligation for Muslims.

Hope you are feeling better soon (F)

polar how do you make his favorite rice?

It's not very egyptian, but he loves it :blush:

I saute thinly sliced onions and garlic in butter, and disolve this yellow seasoning he likes in chicken stock and water (sorry, don't know the name of the spice but it makes the rice a yellow color). I add the chicken stock to the onions and garlic, then add the rice and a little salt. Bring to a boil and cook like normal rice. I also add a little more butter bc he likes alot in his rice, but that's optional. Also, if I use all chicken stock and don't dilute it with water, I add more salt too.
