As we all know Eid
is approaching and is round the corner! What can I say? Ramadhaan has come and
gone so quick!! The most blessed month of the year is already almost over!
Inshallah all our prayers and dua’s during this month are accepted. Also loads
of people have been doing charity events and other activities in order to raise
money for those in Palestine
The last week of
Ramadhaan is always very hectic! Preparing for Eid is always so exciting! From
going shopping to buy our outfits for this special day to buying gifts for our
family and loved ones! Oh and of course making some delicious yummy biscuits
and cakes in time for Eid!
I've been doing a
lot of last minute shopping and preparation! In the second week of Ramadhaan I
was very busy doing lots of different things so when it came to the last and
final week I just wanted to relax! Little did I realise that I needed to still
do loads of things as well as prepare and get my stuff for Eid!! Luckily I did
get my act together and finally decided to go out on a search for a nice dress!
I wasn’t really feeling the Indian look this year so I looked online for some
nice English dresses. It took a LOONG time but in the end I did end up buying a
plain sort of dress but it wasn’t an English dress! (So I guess I will still be
keeping it traditional this year :P) I
just hope I can style it nicely on the actual day! Now that my dress is finally
sorted it’s always tough to go accessory hunting! Making sure that you find the
exact shade of bangles or jewellery to go with your lovely dress! After all
everyone wants to make sure they have everything on point for this special
joyful occasion! Am not going for too much jewellery this year but I have kind
of got my stuff sorted! Just a few last minute bits and bobs that I need to
sort out still including looking for a matching scarf! As for my shoes/heels I
already have them sorted which is always helpful! BUT Walking in heels are a
killer!! I’ll enjoy walking in them for about 5-10 minutes and then I’ll just
complain the rest of the time and wish I wore some flats! Who else feels the
same?! But I won’t be walking around in heels much so hopefully it’s all going
to be okay! As you can tell I’ve got nearly everything for my Eid outfit
sorted. Well... At least I THINK so
anyway! Oh and for presents… well I have 3 older amazingly awesome sisters who
are already doing the present shopping! ;O :D (If any of my sisters are reading
this then I hope you've got me a nice prezzie ;D)

Moving on to Baking
Biscuits and cakes!! I haven’t actually started making much biscuits yet!
Hopefully I am planning to start making some from today! (Maybe after I finish
doing this blog post!) Although am not so sure what I am planning on making so
I’ll have to think about that one & also check that I have all the
ingredients too!! My lovely mum has already started making some Indian kind of
biscuits for Eid =D So pretty much as you can tell I still need to do a lot of
baking which I am super excited to do! Let’s just hope all the things I make
come out nice! (Inshaallah)

So Yeah, that’s
all the things that I can think of for my Eid prep at the minute! I haven’t put
any of my own pictures in to this blog post just because I don’t want to show any pictures
of anything just yet! I hope you enjoyed another one of my more talkative sort
of/ish blogs! (= I hope all of your last few days of Ramadhaan
have been going well! Oh and what have
you guys been doing for your Eid prep? Do let me know in the comments section
because as you know I love to know what you guys are up to as well!
Anyways, I’ll talk

Take Care!
Much Love
