wissal's iftar

Today was the 30th day of Ramadan, and most Muslims around the world will celebrate Eid al-Fitr tomorrow. Today was the last day of fasting, and tomorrow most businesses will close so that people can be with their families.

Last night, Ethan and I spent iftar with Wissal and her family. Wissal is the director of the center where I teach English. She lives in Bourj al-Barajneh camp, and because of all of the traffic, we barely made it to her place in time. We had a cozy feast on the floor, followed by delicious pistachio and cream desert (I forgot the name).
