sheherazade Posted October 9, 2007 husband material, there are for iib are they? Waa la ba'ay. Bro, don't u know the dilemma that faces Muslim women? Shopping for clothes that are suitable in the West is work. I want the luxury of being able to walk into shop after shop that caters to me. Besides, the shopping is only the first pit stop of my next trip. The skiing training is preparation for my trip after next! I have lots of 'authentic' bits and pieces from my previous travels- u can have a painting from Vietnam if u wish, the only thing that comes to mind that u might appreciate; you just have to frame it. PM me your address, I can only promise to send what I already have in hand not what I might have. Wait, u like to cycle, right? I have postcards of monks on bicycle rickshaws, somewhere..I'll throw those in too. Happy Eid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salma Posted October 10, 2007 Originally posted by Ms Dhucdhuc & Dheylo: Did you know horse meat is delicious? No i havent eaten it, but I had chinese friend who ate anything in sight just to impress his dad. Speaking of the horse meat, my father was once invited to a celebration by the Embassy of South Africa in Emirates Palace hotel. He said that when the waiters started to serve the food, his SA friend told him to taste the delicious meat he will ever find. Father asked what kind of meat? Guess what?? Zebra meat. Zebra!! some humans try to eat every moving things like a child. Anyway, my father refused that meat coz we are not allowed to eat un-halal or unlawful food like (horses, donkeys, zebras, mules or animals with nails). Hey guyz, what do you think of Shark meat. I, was invited to a dinner and in the buffet I found "Shark meat". I didn't eat it, though its from the sea and all the food in the sea is halal. But, I couldn't stand the ideas which came to my mind:- "This could be the JAW itself which ate many humans OMG, I am not gonna this predator" I will add it to my Black List. Blacklisted food : Except the Salmon fish and Hamour fish, all the other sea-food, all those little scary creatures with many small small small legs like crabs- prawns-shrimps and the big master Mr. Lobster. Keep praising them as much as u want, but they have no chance @ all with me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Som@li Posted October 10, 2007 Next time dont be surpsided to see human meat on menu. In Africa, you can find restaurents serving Zebra, Girrafe, lions meat, gorillas, all kinda wild lives.

Ibtisam Posted October 10, 2007 don't u know the dilemma that faces Muslim women? Shopping for clothes that are suitable in the West is work. I want the luxury of being able to walk into shop after shop that caters to me. . You can say that one again, Winter shopping is depressing me, endless browsing just to find ONE item. Wait, u like to cycle, right? I have postcards of monks on bicycle rickshaws, somewhere..I'll throw those in too Loool HAHA HAHA. Zebra, horse, snakes, ants, waax iidinka baaxsanyaab isskaa yaar. Seriously people just eat normal food, this notion of eating everything that don't eat you first is crazy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Serenity- Posted October 10, 2007 I'm really not adventurous with my taste-buds. I cant even bring myself to taste turkey. Or eat Tiger Prawns. Or Shrimp. *feels like such a wimp*. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Lily- Posted October 10, 2007 Sheh, the abundance of skirts in Dubai is amazing, the only problem I found with them was that they were ridiculesy long, even tall people will find them long. I didn't think UAE women were particualry very tall, must be the heels and the desire to sweep the floor after you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Serenity- Posted October 10, 2007 Horta, where would you ladies suggest for well-fitting skirts.. in London? It occurred to me that I dont own more than one skirt(which is awful looking and a size bigger than I) this Ramadan. Thank God for full coverage Cabayas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted October 10, 2007 ^^Serenity I went shopping yesterday, I could not find a single decent skirt that was above my knees. I think I might join the knee high skirt/ boots revolution if I don't find a decent few soon. I've become strangely attached to cabayas and jalibis this Ramadan. must be all those locked away Shidans Lily I like sweeping floor skirts (although London is a dirty place) I think Dubai is calling me or rather shopping abroad is calling me.
