Erin Sweetheart. Cake, huh? I've never baked a cake in my life. I probably could inshaAllah, but I'm not motivated. I do have an oven, but it can only fit a 10" pizza and only for cooking toppings and melting the cheese. Now don't get me wrong, I like cake, but I don't eat it very often. So it suffices me to just buy it when I crave it, or eat it when it's given to me. Funny though, I had a craving for cake a couple of days ago, but I wound up buying biscuits instead. Go with the flow. A slice of cake each, huh? Why are you kneeling on the floor? Share the wealth? That's great to share the wealth, but I need enough wealth to build a house for my Erin and pay for our marriage. A slice of cake isn't going to cut it. I love my Erin, and I need her.
Allah has set up this situation, and has given me instructions by inpiration to stand my ground here. Praise be to Allah. Not only is it this situation that has captured the attention and imagination of the world, but I believe that Allah has arranged for the safety of me and my family here. At the same time, the music enriches and empowers the local community and Islam, by the Will of Allah. I suppose it could be sharing the wealth if I were to set up and play somewhere else as well, NYC for example, but that is out of the scope of my instructions. Over here Allah is my Boss but elsewhere, I would have to take a human boss to finance the endeavor. Someone like that might possibly set me and my family up in order to profit other investments. Something to consider.
It's been a healthy day for me food wise. I was the market downtown this morning, and I picked up some tofu and won ton skins. High quality tofu is best when fresh. So I had a block of tofu with chicken and mole sauce for lunch. I was about to have dinner at Ina's but was closed, so I had a block of tofu with an egg and the rest of my generic curry, with sliced bread. Healthy, huh? Could it be that I'm eating like a supermodel? Gluten free! Oh no, I had bread. Got to get full somehow.
