And there was fun, good food, and harmony. I have such a great family here in Dubai. There are four apartments in my flat that share a common entryway and a big kitchen. The other three families are from different parts of India. One family is Muslim, another couple are Hindu, and another single lady is Hindu. I am Christian.
We should be running world politics, because it didn't take us long to sort things out. Kitchen politics are based on mutual respect, and though we share two stovetops, there is only one sink. No beef (Hindu's hold cows sacred) No pork (Muslims consider pork forbidden) and I don't really have any religious food restrictions, but I'm allergic to bell peppers, so they are also forbidden! lol
Sabi, Deepika, Jayshree, and I love to share our food and are always giving "samples." We have decided that all four of us are great cooks! Deepika cooks for herself and her husband, Sabi cooks for her family, and we single girls have pooled our side of the kitchen and cook and eat together every day. Lots of times we hang out and watch the other cook work her magic. So far my broccoli salad and fried potatoes are big hits, and I am fond of almost everything the other ladies make. We share ingredients, and pick up odds and ends at the store for each other.
Yup, we should be running countries, there would be Peace on Earth!
