a bit about ramadan

totally ORZ to those fasting muslims in gothenburg... due to the geographic location of this city, i heard they had to fast 17hrs at the very beginning of bulan ramadan... some 3-5 minutes less everyday as winter draws closer. i wonder if they'll have to fast 24hrs a day thru the whole ramadan month if they live on the north/south pole when the sun doesnt set ="=

a beautiful egyptian lady offered me a kind of egyptian delicacy made out of dates. (i was with her when she buka puasa) it's kinda like our tam boon pia, only a bit harder and drier, and with date paste instead of bean paste in de middle. yummy :)

tht just reminds me that the middle east market is going to get into festive mood very soon ^^

pasar raya's must be mushrooming in msia now eh? missing those malay kuehs~
