On reviewing my goals for 2014 a few weeks ago, I found that one of them was to help the kids have the best summer holidays ever. When I wrote this down, I hadn’t realised I was pregnant. Now that their holidays are here, I am due to give birth any day now insh’Allah and can’t do as […]
The kids have been trying the blo-art set I found them at a boot fair, so I came home from work to be presented with lots of artwork, which Little Lady had promptly decorated her bunkbed with, along with some curious instructions for her brothers. I have been having a difficult time with Little Lady […]
Fashionista Sister first made these and they have proved popular at our parties and picnics. A previous version of this recipe is here, this is an improved and updated version after much testing out of different ingredients. My husband also requests these when he is picking someone up from the airport and wants something light […]
I was doing some research for work today on equality in sports participation and one of the most striking findings I came across was the lack of participation of Muslim women in Sports. Quite a few of the research reports and studies had attempted to gauge the reasons why Muslim women did not participate in […]

After staying away from the internet for most of Ramadan and then having the computer crash after Eid, I have not been able to blog or reply to e-mails. Today my brother-in-law brought home a rather nice laptop which is now mine and which I hopefully will manage to keep away from the kids long […]
I have been feeling funny lately. Lethargic, anti-social, lazy, not very interested in anything.I start a hundred things and can’t seem to go anywhere near finishing any of them. Books I have read two chapters of are piling up on my bedside table, a pile of cards I have started and not finished and lots […]
This week I had agreed to meet some very dear friends from university for dessert. We usually meet for a meal, but I thought this idea was good because it would give me time to get the kids fed and all of my chores done. What actually happened was that I left work early, sneaked […]
