Raya Stories Part 4 - The Twelfth Day of Raya

No, we didnt have any leftover turkey..

We wanted to invite some friends over for dinner last weekend. We had the menu ready and then started to discuss who we would invite.

Well, we cant invite every friend we have for obvious reasons. We decided to invite A, and B. And C must come also. Well, we cant invite B without inviting D too. Neither can we not invite E. And what about F? And G invited us to their place last raya, so we had to include them into the list also. And then H and I and J..

The list of guests was quite impossible to manage. Everyone just had to come. We thought hard about it and then thought about it some more. In the end we decided not to have the dinner do after all.. end of story and the brewing headache.

We had a light dinner that evening then watched Journey/Steve Perry in a 1981 concert on VCD. He-he.. The children said where did you find this thing? But it was not too bad – they watched the whole thing with us. After that we played Uno – Eirfan insisted. I have to have quality time with the guy after all so I managed to bully everyone to play. After that we watched a movie and then went to bed.

Actually, the evening turned out better than any raya dinner party would have..
