Back to the Past
Assalaamu Alaikum :)
*~*~* Jummah Mubarak *~*~*
*sigh* I can't stress what a wonderful day I had yesterday. Alhamdulillah. It was very much needed, to just get away from my very routine world. A good friend of mine is visiting from Ottawa for the week. I had not seen her since she got married over the summer. We used to go to York together, we attended a class together ... and we would always have our regular snacks at Wendy's ... the baked patotoes ... awww how I miss it! York brought us together, it really did.
Anyways, so she's finally here and whenever she comes to visit, for some reason our plans always conflict. I can never seem to go and see her. When a perfect opportunity arose the last time she visited, I had an exam :( But I was getting completely sick of this! I had to do something, I had to make sure that we saw each other at least once on her visit home! So we talked and realized that Thursday was the only good day for the both of us. But even then, I would have to really work hard because of the circumstances haha
She had to go out for her mother's doctor's appointments and since my dad was not able to make it to her place before she left, I just met her at the hospital. From all places to meet someone. So I hung out with them and then we ended up going to ... are you ready? Wendy's!! For old time sake. It brought back soo many memories. We would talk about anything and everything while eating that haha and trust me, there was A LOT of time because it takes me a LONG time to finish eating. heh ... heh ...
Next stop was Food Basics haha And then back to her place where I assisted with the cooking for today's party that they will be having. Okay, all I did was peel carrots and watch her make guacamole dip but hey, I did something! Hmm, I just realized that I didn't even get the chance to taste it. Darn.
Whatever, the moral of the story is ... I am so blessed to have such wonderful people surrounding me and to have friends like her. I would be lost if I didn't have friends like that. It's a beautiful thing to consider friends your family ... may Allah Swt bless us all with such good people in our lives, ameen.

Aww sounds like you had a great time with your friend :)
I must question why must you always put pictures of food up - coming here always makes me so hungry!
This is what happens when your plans conflict with a friend's and you don't know what to do about it: skip your classes or the like. It's a surefire way to make you happy. Heh.
So you're the type that takes forever to eat :D
'liya
Awww sowie!! And I realize it must be extra frustrating since you've been denied solid foods .. I'll try post pictures of baby food :P
Asmaa
Yes :( Do turtles eat slow also? If so, I am a turtle
Haha, the last thing Aaliya wants to see is pictures of baby food. As she said in one of her posts, she wants to see crunchy food. :)
We're blessed to have the people around us sometimes and we don't realize just how important they are until they're gone from our lives. May Allah (SWT) remind us of how grateful we are and provide us with the means to see those we love before we lose the chance to. Ameen. :)
