Letter to Erin 20160602

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

Are you teasing me, Erin?  Being all cute like that.  I believe you are.  It's a good thing that I love you most when you're cute.  You haven't been cute in a long while.

I had a busy morning today.  I had to visit the taxman, as you know.  My Dad had me drive him to his eye appointment, so while I was waiting, I ran my errands.  I also paid my power bill, bought my lunch, got my Dad his newspaper, and bought lots of flour.  Then I still had time to take a nap in the park.  I woke up at 3:30 am this morning, so I needed it.

What's for dinner?  This time it's bamboo shoots in curry.  Marinated bamboo shoots taste like sauerkraut, so you don't want to put a big chunk in your mouth.  A little at a time.  Wow, I'm stuffed.  Alhamdulillah.  Erin, you are my heart.  I love you and I need you.

Please allow me to say something to Antonia.

Dear Antonia, do you like sauerkraut?
