My husband is an insomniac!! I think a 24 hour flight will be his sudden cure. thats why I was thinking of just working and allow him rest. although the day will go pretty slow. I at least wanted him to pretend to sleep til I got home. I could even work part of my shift. then I would take the next few days off- being his FREAK!

My Dh will have a 12 hour flight to chicago, then a 2 hour flight to here with layovers, making him have a 16 hour ordeal overall. So I know he'll be awake!

Hmm. I found this:

which says yes, if you get the "right" things (listed in their opening).

For those whose So's don't like sweets.. one things I found my Dh really loved was tacos!!!! And homemade tacos are sooo easy and quick. Check out the shells you use to make sure they don't contain lard (most shells are not halal, I buy vegan ones to just get out of it) and away you go!

is taco bell halal. they are opend til 2am.

grrr we can go to Taco bell but not KFC? oh lord.. there goes my Hot wings.

This was a nice thread before you guys decided to derail it. I'll go back to the topic. You can continue to judge me in ways you don't like to be judged. I'm your nonchalant target for the evening, and on.

Have fun!

ahem that's my job around here

Meh, from my experience, the first few days aren't romantic, they're both lethargic and hectic. Any romantic plans are thrown out the window when the husband crashes and burns after a long trip. Then it's mad running around getting him aquainted.

My Dh is an insomniac. He only sleeps when i am with him, which is really strange to me? I love sleeping! LOL! But he has these unbelievable powers of staying awake, and so as much as I try to tell him he will be tired and I will plan something better for the second day, he keeps insisting we have GREAT! PLANS! FOR! DAY! ONE! Sigh.

I don't know about you, but my husband has never been on a plane. I don't know if he'll be able to relax or get any sleep during the flight. My plan is to meet him at the POE and go to a full service hotel or a B&B.

I was hoping my husband can POE .. at DFW. Dallas ft. worth

Mine has flown before a few times, so he's familiar with it-- but I know he will not sleep. He'll also be extremely uncomfortable because he's pretty tall.

Idol was about the same, one more interview night. What about the fries everyone was eating at McDonalds in Casa

I know that. Sorry to upset you. Maybe it's only for one night, and they'll go back to you after. Ya think?

Green you do have a way with words "poked"

Well I can't vouch for that source really, but it makes sense to me about the vegetarian things? KFC chicken is not halal (or shouldn't be). And if KFC ever contracts from tyson? Then DEFINATELY not halal. This is where tyson is based, and I can tell you--since I see what everyone is eating go by me every day.. and I knwo a lot of tyson workers? They eat feed made from other chickens and are not killed in a halal way. Some epople don't care about that and some do, it's just up to preference I'm not all about starting a "you're not really being halal" thing with anyone! LOL! Because? not muslim. Only interested in what to feed my DH. Actually vegetarian. Not interested in meat of any kind, even halal I have Muslim friends who go across the spectrum of eating so I just kinda shrug my shoulders and say "meh?" and let people do what they want!

Take this from a Mexican you can make your own shells! What is better than fresh vs off the shelf taco shells? They are super easy and quick to do! To do so buy CORN TORTILLAS they are usually made and packaged that day. Warm up a good amount of cooking oil when its nice and hot dip in a tortilla after a few seconds take a fork and fold the corn tortilla in half. Keep the fork in the middle so the tortilla sides wont stick. Let one side crisp then flip the tortilla shell on its other side and let that crisp too. You can make the shells as crispy or as lite crisp as you want.=0) Then you can stuff with your what ever you want from chicken to guacamole or shredded beef or fajitas. Yum.
