Happy Birthday!

Today was the mawlid an-nabawi. For those of you not in the know, that's the prophet Muhammad's birthday. To celebrate, the fourteen-year-old neighbor girl across the street invited us over for sweets. Then we went to lunch at her cousin's house a block away, and had a dance party to Nancy Agram music.

In the late afternoon, I stopped by my host family's house and drank some lemonade and ate delicious powdered sugar sweets with them.
