Letter to Erin 20160128

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

Hello Sweetheart!  Hi Cutie!  How's it going today?  Oh, business as usual?  Well, don't get too serious.  I love your smile.  Just make sure you take good care of yourself, eat properly and get enough rest.  You are beautiful.  I love you and I need you.

Nothing all that out of the ordinary going on here today.  It was nice and cool in the morning, with light rain.  I was about to go out, but I didn't want to get caught in a downpour while on my motorcycle.  I did make a quick run to the corner store, and pick up a large cabbage.  I was watching Iron Chef, and I saw them wrap things up in cabbage leaves like egg rolls, so I wanted to try that.  I had to boil each leaf lightly to loosen it up enough to roll.  I stuffed them with rice, egg, and fish.  The fish didn't match with the cabbage (I used scad), but otherwise the experiment was a success.  Scad is too strong tasting.  Next time I try this, I'll use a sweeter and milder seafood, like prawns or snapper.  Very filling, though.  I'm stuffed.  Ya Allah, thank You for the knowledge and the bounty that You have provided for me.
