chilling the weekend away

It feels like it has been quite some time since I last had time to just hang out and chill with almost nothing specific to do for the whole weekend. But the past 2 days I made up for it!

Here is what I have been up to

- Having Iftar at Tom's house, awesome Thai food, hanging out with other foreigners, having interesting conversations
- Suhur in the middle of the night at Purvy's house, amazing beans, watching and commenting CSI
- Sleeping until 1 in the afternoon
- Reading! (Democratic Values in the Muslim World) (I never find time to read, so when I do, I have to appreciate the preciousness of these moments...)
- Cleaning the house
- Smashing a bottle of olive oil
- Sheesha
- Cooking with Annika and having friends over for Iftar
- Getting surprised with ready home cooked Iftar by a good friend who brought the food to my house (My only job was to prepare milk and dates)
- Having a long and good conversation with my dear flatmate and boss Annika.
- Watching 6 episodes of Sex in the City, with Annika.
- Making a healthy Suhur with Annika (to eat during Sex and the City) with homemade fruit juice (3 Mangoes, 2 Peaches, 4 Plums, 1 Yogurt, 1 Blender)
- Trying to open a bottle of Water and ending up taking a long knife, poking a whole into the bottle and squeezing the water out.

Cairo-Live, I like you!
