Iftaar party

All festivities & celebrations have a story behind them. In our household, behind the Iftaar party there is a special – close to our heart story!! Anyway… I won’t bore you with my stories….. Every year, during the holy month of Ramadan, we have an Iftaar party atleast once…. This is where our family get together & have an evening meal… (no… we don’t really fast…!! – but don’t tell anyone!!) followed by chit-chat, gossip…. probably a few games – Scrabble or Pictionary !! At the end … we have a great time!!
Last night, we had our annual Iftaar party !! The candles were lit…. the music was playing in the background… And the atmosphere just right for a lovely get together!!! All the food was specially cooked by my brother…. And here are a few pictures I’d like to share with you all….






The food... not only looked spectacular... but tasted scrumptious... I'm sure you'll agree!!
