Harmony In Setif, Algeria

Yes, us folks in Algeria have one more day of Ramadan to look forward to. Saudi Arabia is celebrating Eid tomorrow, however. Why is there a difference, you ask? Well, some very well skilled individuals watch very carefully for the first sight of of a waxing crescent moon the last days of Ramadan. When they see the crescent, in their country, that is the last day of Ramadan. And Eid will take place the following day. And believe me the act of waiting for news either way, keeps everyone on his/her toes. Not only will it be a relief to feast as you like, but all the preparation that goes into Eid. The cooking, cleaning, women needing thier hair done at the coiffure(hair stylist). Today was a very busy day out at the shops. So, I suppose they will all have a good rest tomorrow. Being Friday, when many businesses are usually closed, it will surely be a long day.

Anyway, may you all have a splendid Eid and eat lots and lots of wonderful cookies for me.
