Eid Mubarek Everybody!

"Eid Mubarek everybody, Eid Mubarek everybody" ok, that's from a song on a Teletubbies episode and it's been stuck in my head ever since...can you tell I'm around kiddos all day and night?

It's Eid ul-Adha!

So, while many had been scrambling to finish Christmas and Hanukkah gifts in time, the 1 billion Muslims of the world were thankful to have a few more days to do last minute shopping! Plus, we got to shop all the after-Christmas sales...thank you Christmas-centered retail society!!

Is that what Eid is about? Gosh no. It's about food, family, friends, and all that good stuff. But mostly...Check this out Eid - A Shared Celebration!

If you are still scratching your head saying, "what the heck is Eid?" Here you go:
Wikipedia on Eid

Not to be confused with Eid ul-Fitr.

Confused? That's ok. Happy Eid to you anyway!
