Ramadhan Kareem Ferguson. JB go help out in the kitchen and turn off the computer Just saw a made up news story regarding the pastor who wants to burn the Quran and its only on muslim sites (about his arrest). I can't find a reliable news outlet that has the bulletin.

^Sharjah and that is the Majaz Park mosque in the middle. MMA nope it ain't Portland.

How about you look around the room and try to catch someone's eye and smile. Then go over and introduce yourself and start talking about a general topic like news/sports or better yet how you both ended up at the event......

North America

lol @ Ngonge......what kind of cooked up haggis is that? Sweet Salmon Ingredients *Salmon fillet(s) *Honey *Cilantro *Italian Parsley *Mandarin oranges *Red Peppers *Green Peppers *Orange Peppers *Fresh Dill *Onions *Strawberries *Scallions *Fresh Lemon *House seasoning Steps *Sections the oranges and quarter the strawberries *Slice the peppers, scallions and onions lengthwise *Wash and separate the dill *Place Salmon fillet (skin down) on sprayed baking tray *Sprinkle house seasoning (mine is a mix of lemon pepper, cayenne pepper, cumin, curry and garam masala) *Arrange on top of fillet oranges, strawberries, onions, peppers, dill, cilantro and parsley. *Mix honey and freshly squeezed lemon together in a bowl and pour over the salmon *Lightly cover baking tray with aluminum and place in oven with broil setting of 350 degrees. *Depending on how well you like your fish done your salmon should be cooked in about 17-25 minutes. For beginners if you want to know your fish is cooked stick your fork in the thickest part and if the fish flakes easily and has a uniform opaque hue it is done *Remove salmon fillet from baking tray careful to leave the liquid behind and taking just the ingredients on top of the salmon. I usually serve this salmon with a side of broccoli slaw, coconut infused rice and garlic bread. Ps:- Normally you wouldn't have that much honey and lemon but on this particular occasion I had a pretty thick salmon fillet and I wanted to ensure that the flavor made it all the way through.

^Rudy lives in a state with an actor as a governor lol Haatu bal explain how I exposed you?

Gheelle T gee the celltell signs should be enough of a clue but I am more familiar with Cape town looks gorgeous. Can anyone figure out where this is

Lets face it JB you would take the computer with you to the bathroom if you could

^Out of babes mouth NORF till I saw he ain't a newbie and between his joining date and mine is a measley 2 years Land erm .......**no comment**

How absolutely posh of the Emir.......

Land how about Somaliland?

There is a reason why I am confused for a man hedhee....don't burst my bubble. Wazee gani hao tena? lol ......Sheytani zangu zilinionyesha kufunga PM sina sababu lolote. Kwani ulibisha ukakatazwa? Ps:- quit calling me a cheat........I don't remember there being any rules set forth unless you saw some

Originally posted by Prometheus: SeeKer, the myth that coffee stunts growth..... Looool I was joking because its how I deter my younger sister from drinking coffee....she is too young to drink it and if I tell her that she will rebel but if i tell her its bad for her growth then she demurely accepts my word. :cool:

Bilcaan @ BOB? .........fudge cakes is that what you call me these days? :mad: And I can read Somali for your information I am just phonetically challenged when it comes to speaking it. It is Sydney by the way MMA in 4 years I might recognize Brasil. Its on my Bucket list Inshallah!

Yes FatB it is cups I forgot to include that in the ratio and the rice can soak on the counter it doesn't need to be refrigerated.

During Ramadhan I take advantage of people's hunger by taking whimsical trips with recipes. This year I instituted a swahili night every week where the whole menu is based on Pwani foods. So here is my recipe for mkate wa sinia except I think I am missing something vital cause I don't feel it is spongy enough. Ingredients: Rice:Sugar:Coconut Milk 1.5:1:2 1 egg white 1 tsp of yeast Cardamon (your discretion I usually use a handful cause I love the smell) Steps: * Soak rice in cold water all night * Sieve water from rice * Blend rice with sugar,cardamon(use a mortar and pestle), yeast and coconut milk. * Let mixture sit and yeast to ferment * Mix in egg white * Pour mix in baking dish and put in oven at 350 Celsius for 30-40 minutes. * If color is not to your liking you can broil the top to redden the color. * Cut into serving pieces and enjoy. So yea can someone advice as to how to make it more spongy. So far its fine to all the people from Pwani I have given but I want to lighten it a bit and perhaps add some saffron or rose water.

Inshallah next Ramadhan I should be somewhere with pleasant weather and white beaches and most of all normal daylight hours. I actually meant that you seem to accomplish more during Ramadhan. Its like eating took about two hours of your day away. Apology accepted by the way. Its a common mistake on these boards. At times I feel like I should have a post that declares my affiliations

STOIC lol @ even a place called Cedar Rapids. I guess you never travelled the midwest sxb. As for bigots and Islamophobes don't you think we have invited this scrutiny ourselves by closeting our religion? Lately I feel like some Muslims push the envelope when it comes to certain things. There are some among us that feel the need to wear our religion on our sleeves. Its all well and good but if we took part in the community and society we live in instead of being secluded perhaps some of these 'bigots and Islamophobes' wouldn't exist. They would understand why Ahmed from down the street wears a khamis on Fridays or why Salma can't shake hands with men...... Its just a thought........

Coffee stunts growth..... Does anyone else feel like you have more time in your day during Ramadhan or is it just my imagination?

lmao @ cheating. You mean you figured out that if you post images from a url it is easy to trace it to the origination point Now if that is the case tell me what city my photo was taken from? Just to clarify I have been to Manchester, Montpellier and Philly and I tend to explore places I travel to till I am as conversant as a native. BOB samahani kama wafikiri nimekutusi. Labda nikutumie mkate wa sinia ufuturu nae. I have become a pro at it this ramadhan. Saum njema.

Bristol? I have to run and finish cleaning the kitchen before prayers laters......shouldn't you be tucked in somewhere?

lol @ science school. Shikamoo mwenzangu nataka kukuomba msamaha lakini mimi sikuepo shuleni lakini mashuguli ya maisha yanikimbisha. Will inshallah be embarking on my educational journey soon enough Hows the practice going?

BOB that would be the city of Manchester.....great memories in that city. I would love to visit it again IA. Che lol your friend misled you or you can't see past the Boston, MA boundaries lol. Try again

I was listening to him giving an interview on NPR the other day and he was questioned about the nuts and bolts of his policies, which center on anti corruption. The interviewer brought up the fact that he failed to pay taxes and owes the IRS about 2 million dollars and Wyclef blamed his accountants for the oversight.They also asked him about the misuse of foundation money that he raised for Haiti. He paid himself for concerts and other things with donation money. Sounds like he is already on the right track to being a presidential candidate

^It looks like Boston probably because Boston is a historical city, parts of Georgetown and Virginia resemble that cobblestone brownstone look. The colonialist must have liked the style. Which city would this be? Its easy enough
