Feast of Sacrifice

As-salaamu'alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu

Eid Mubarak my dear brothers and sisters!


I shall insha'Allah be celebrating Eid tomorrow, December 20th. I pray you all have a wonderful Eid filled with Allah's infinite blessings. Please take a moment to reflect on the importance of this celebration, remember those who are blessed to perform their Hajj this year and ask Allah to accept it, pray for the less fortunate, enjoy family and think of those who have to spend this special day alone,... and relax!

May Allah Most Merciful forgive our sins, guide us, and give us good in this world and the next. Ameen.


Cake Directions:


Pretty straight forward, you need a 12" cake, an 8" cake, and 2 cupcakes. Cut the 8" cake as shown in the picture.


Assemble cake as shown. First frost the head, inside of ears, and bottom half of feet with chocolate frosting. (Optional: then cover those sections with chocolate chips.) Using a piping bag and star nozzle frost the rest with vanilla frosting. Add details (ears, nose, mouth).

Voila! Halal on Eid and enjoy.

  10. Here's what the lamb is saying: "Don't eat me! I'm cute!"

  11. As-salaamu'alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dear sister Purvis,

    haha.. unfortunately for the little lamb.. I came back home with most of it eaten. :D

    It was a great lesson for my nephew though.. he now knows the story of Prophet Ibrahim, and he even 'halaled' this lamb..so he knows what to say and the importance of it.

    I hope you had a wonderful Eid, insha'Allah.

    Wa'alaykum as-salaam
    Love Farhana
