I'm still around people!!! Just been very busy with work and prep for my cousin's wedding. Will insha'Allah show you all the awesome things I've been up to!

So a week before the wedding I had a party/shower for her and invited Mocha Henna, since I knew some of the guest would love that.

I absolutely LOVE them!! I'm not a big fan of all henna designs, but love theirs. They also use pure (as in no chemicals) henna - and the color turns out amazing! The sister who applied it is also so sweet (tabarak'Allah).





They are Toronto based, and prices are very reasonable. Definitely worth checking out - my guest were soooo happy with theirs, kicked my party a notch up ;)

Here is their facebook page: Mocha Henna

In nearly every orphanage in China, children in need of heart surgery wait to be healed.

In an effort to help as many of these orphaned children as possible, Love Without Boundaries is holding a "Born In My Heart" art auction.

Beginning Thursday April 23 to Tuesday April 28, you will have the opportunity to bid on some amazing items and forever change the lives of children with heart defects. Over 300 items will be added throughout the day.

100% of the proceeds go to fund heart surgeries.

It's only Sunday.. but I've already had a wonderful weekend. I spent Friday and Saturday at a cake show.. now I want to bake something amazing! But who's going to eat a three tiered cake? It was really nice to see other cool cakes (wedding, baby shower, etc.), and even see some cakes being put together.. although it disgusts me how much they blow on the cake (to keep it clean, etc.) I'm extremely picky when it comes to food and hygiene - thank God I don't need to order cakes from others.

I also bumped into an awesome store! Which is why I'm posting today.. to share their online store with you: Lush

They sell fresh-no animal testing-protect the planet kind of products. In my books that makes them a perfect place to shop. I bought shampoo in a solid form!, and have already used it.. by far the best shampoo I've ever used. Hijabi Apprentice, you must visit this site! It reminds me of you... haha

Right now they are holding contest you can check out - win a bike! Seed The Nation. I think today is the last day to enter, so see if you can get something in asap.

Happy shopping!

I'd like to share a wonderful site I happen to bump into yesterday, Blogger Aid!


Bloggers Uniting to Aid in the Alleviation of Hunger - how beautiful! I'm so happy people have taken the initiative to do something like this, and I pray it's a huge success.

Check out the site, please join in and help support them where you can, even if it's just passing on the word. At the moment a cookbook is being put together which you are more than welcome to join, deadline is the March 31st, 2009.

As-salaamu'alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dear readers..

I know you missed me.. ha

AlhumduliLlah the RIS Conference went excellent! I'm still recouping, bear with me.

I'd like to share a site with you, Don't Be Sad. It is, to me, the perfect blog! My lack of grammer can't explain all the goodness about it. So please go check it out with an open heart, and don't wait for a Monday or a New Year to apply what you learn, they both may never come.

Jazak'Allah for the pretty badge, very, very much appreciated. May Allah Most Merciful shower His blessings upon you, and reward you for your pure intentions. Ameen. (It should really be ther other way..I should be the one sending you a badge) Thank you so much for creating a useful blog, that will insha'Allah give us success in this world and in the next.

I'd like to share a new blog I have up, with you.

Insha'Allah together we can help our sisters in Islam. It is our duty, and their right.

Our current mission is to collect enough funds to purchase a home for them, in a safer location, and a more reasonable size than the one they are currently living in.

Please, please let others know about this orphanage. All funds are taken care of by me personally, insha'Allah.

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions..you can leave a comment here, or feel free to email me.

Did you know over 100,000 marine animals die every year from plastic entanglement! Why this doesn't bother so many people in the world (Muslims especially), I can't understand... because if it did, 500 billion to one trillion plastic bags wouldn't be used each year!! It does a lot more damage than just kill, but most of us are well aware of that. And yet.. we still use them.

“Whoever kills [even] a sparrow without good reason, Allah (God) will question him about it on the Day of Resurrection.” -Ahmed

Anyway today I came across an excellent site which I'd like to share with you. Morsbags.com. It's a step in making a difference, please check it out. It has lots of ways to get involved, including an easy to follow video on how to make fabric bags.. and we have lots of crafty (your favourite word Gulnarita) sisters around, masha'Allah. Maybe you can make a few for yourself, a few extra for people you know.. and even some to give those you don't know.

I've added a 'Pod' under Sketched Soul Bags, everyone is welcome and encouraged to join in. I'll keep a tally there of how many 'we' make, insha'Allah.
