I managed to get most of my yard work done before the fasting month starts. That will be Tuesday, 3 days away. The grass grows quickly here and I will have to cut it again soon, but at least not twice within the next month inshaAllah. I've been spending nearly all my evenings doing yard work lately, so I've been buying dinner at the new food court by the crossroads. Today I bought rice with beef and something called "dalca" (pronounced "dalcha"). I asked my mother what dalca is, and she said it was like a curry flavored salad. I asked the guy selling it what dalca is, and he said it had eggplant, gourd, and chicken feet. I said, "Hold the chicken feet". Chicken feet is a delicacy here, but I can't bring myself to eating it. Chitlins is a delicacy here, and I like that. However I've stopped eating BBQ even though I love it, because it was making me bloated. But I don't even want to try chicken feet. You want to try some?
