It's Saturday morning. I usually wake up by 9am, go for an hour of workout in the gym and then get ready for a working Saturday afternoon. I'm skipping the gym today to have some time to just kick back and relax. To enjoy the coffee and some Arabic sweets on my balcony. And the sun. There's plenty of it but, ironically, vitamin D deficiency is very high here because people spend most of the time indoors or covered.
I usually only buy Arabic sweets when I have friends coming over and they want to take home some authentic gifts for their families. If you know where to buy them they can be really tasty with lots of nuts and not too sweet. I used to have a really good pastry shop very close to my previous house and I still go there to buy sweets now even if it's a 30 minute drive to reach it and there are probably 50 other pastry shops in between. One of my local friends who lives in that neighborhood says those are the best you can get. I guess he must know something. Or he's just a creature of habit, but aren't we all?
Have a good Saturday everyone!
