Sunday Blessings

I went downtown shopping yesterday as things are much cheaper there.It was crowded with Ramadan shoppers.There was an array of festival clothes, food stuff, vermicelli and dates, embroidered shoes and prayer caps and ornaments and so much more.

I had to buy groceries.Couldn 't resist some sweets and bamboo and chillie pickle.Oh cholesterol! And from a take -away outlet I brought chicken biryani and kebabs.

The takeaway left overs I used for today 's lunch , just made Chinese egg rice. I had asked the muttonwala (Mutton is lamb) to deliver the meat this morning but he came very late...too late to cook it for lunch.So I will cook my Rajasthani lamb curry called Lal Maas or red meat on a weekday.

Sheeba sets up such a racket whenever the mutton-man comes. She barks her tail off.I suppose she gets excited because of the meat smell.

I want to wish my Canadian friends a very Happy Thanksgiving.God bless you all as you celebrate the Lord 's blessings. It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord and to declare His praises for evermore.

This cartoon is really funny couldn 't stop myself from posting it.Never eaten turkey. Its not available here anymore. When my parents were young they could get it.But you can get it in the metros.

Today we had Bishop Masih speak in church and he presided over Communion.After that we had tea in the manse. I took Indian sweets called motichoor ke laddus.They are so called as they are made of tiny orange motis or pearl-like balls.

Tomorrow we have an evening meeting in our church in which some visitors will be talking about evangelism and praying our our city and country.Before that we 'll be watching the cricket match.Hope they don 't give us a reason to cry.
