Haha.. I am used to it so I don’t feel weird abt not eating/drinking during the day.. The best way to break fast: water and kurma..

I think that some of the “rules” should be followed year round like feeding the poor. Like the holidays, their is plenty for the homeless, but what about the rest of the year.

Ok Sarah -good luck with the fasting and enjoy your IFTAR buffetts! Keep us posted here…I find it hard not to drink water in the car in daylight hours when it’s so hot!

Played a bit of golf earlier and drank water on the course – it’s allowed on some courses during Ramadan!

Meat is fine but only after sunset for those following the rules!

Well, I am fasting and all I can think of is sugar cane juice.

This is definitely not a time to eat less. In fact, I have been eating more rather than eating less compared to the non-fasting months. Weird. I just can’t get past those delicious delicacies they sell at the Ramadan bazaar.

Oh, here we will get fined too if we were caught eating in public during the day.

I would imagine that ‘keeping thoughts pure’ would be a natural by-product of Ramadam, surely all you would be thinking is ‘burger, burger, burger’.

Or chicken.
