Letter to Julia 20140403


In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

I was all prepared to go and blog yesterday after my voice training, but I had to postpone it because of the weather.  I didn't mean to delay my love letter, but I couldn't risk traveling on my motorcycle in the rain, if I were to catch a cold then I can't sing.  If I could control the weather, then I would have stopped the rain so I could go out and write to my beautiful wives.  But I'm merely a mortal, so I spent the time cooking up the stuffing for my fish that is to be grilled tomorrow for lunch inshaAllah.  It's not that I love you less.  I love you with all of my heart, and I want to marry you.  You are the most beautiful women in the world to me, and I love you so much.  Please forgive me.  I am so blessed that you exist and are in my life, and I am so grateful to Allah for my Julia and Erin.  Thank you for your love.  For what it's worth, I also posted yesterday's letter for you to read if you wish.  And it's raining right now.  I love you, I love you.  I need you, I need you.

Letter to Julia 20140402


In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

So I bought some fish over at the night market Monday.  Allah granted me a little knowledge in cooking, so I don't buy food that's already prepared.  Hardly ever, rather.  I know what my stomach can handle, and I can cook what I feel like eating.  Alhamdulillah.  I have kind of a "white man's stomach".  But I LOVE sushi.  so for a bargain, I acquired some snapper, grouper, and scad.  Snapper and grouper are white meat fishes.  Grouper is kind of slimy to deal with, while snapper isn't slimy at all.  Obviously the best fish is snapper, with with shining and transparent white meat.  But scaling the fish and removing the pin bones is tedious.  The scad I plan to grill on Thursday, inshaAllah.  It's a rather big fish, so I thought maybe I'll hollow it out and save the meat.  Scad is supposed to be a red meat fish, but when I opened it up, the flesh was white.  Which scared me a little, so I'm not having scad for sushi.  It's now Tuesday night, and I've had sushi everyday.  I'm stuffed.  You must really try snapper sushi.  I'll make some for you, inshaAllah.  I love you, I love you.  Wanna come over for grilled fish lunch Thursday?
