Back To The Past!

   

Back To The Past!

   Heritage plays an important role in the value of any country.  The country that has set of unique traits on the human. Human are the one who strive to create those traits that give them recognition from others.  It is very important to keep the cultural achievements for young new generation. 

   There is an Arabian proverb which emphasizes that who doesn't have something from the past, won't have anything from the present.  One of the traditional things we have learned from our grandparents are Traditional Foods.  That foods that always have special and different taste.  The taste that reminds us of the story of the beloved one who are gone from a long time.  Today, I will show you one of the most Omani traditional foods.  This food has high calories.  It contains of any type of meat, but sheep meat is better, wheat, salt and a little bit of spices of clove ground, black pepper ground and cinnamon ground.  This food can be eaten as a breakfast, lunch or dinner.  It depends on the person, but this dish usually prepare and serve for special occasions like wedding, Eid and Ramadan. It is known as " Harees ".

 

 

    Literally, Harees is an Arabian word which mean that something have been mashed perfectly.  As it is mashed, of course it is very soft and easy to eat.  This mushy filling dish, can make your stomach full from a few spoons only.  Moreover, this pureed food is easily digestible, especially for babies who start eating and for elderly people who have no teeth. 

    So, you can see how it looks from the picture.  My mom and I made it today. You will notice it is covered by a yellow liquid which is known as "Samen" that made from the butter or naturally taken from the cow.  It really adds more flavor to it, but personally I do not like to add it because it will look a little bit fatty.

   Now, If you are planning to visit Oman, do not hesitate to call me.  I will make sure to make you totally rich from this dish :P

Is Life A Maze!!

What is like to have a normal life! How is it like our first sight of life! I have always wanted to know the real meaning of life and what does it hide for us in the coming days! Long time since I have started recognizing my own life - 19 years, 8 months and a few more days- . It was completely like a weird game.  It was simply as a maze, mysterious as a nightmare and long as the great wall of china.  My childish meaning of life was like one of the electronic adventure game I used to play when I was a child, when I have to survive the insecure world from my comfortable sofa by only one button press!! How my vision was so fun and innocent at the same time!! Anyway, I still stand and believe strongly on this! Even though it does not sounds true, but I would really live my life by the way that has been seen by my heart. You and I may struggle a lot to get our basic needs, to fulfill our dreams and to follow the inner power and talent that have been gifted for us.  The purpose from that is when something comes easily, it will go away as quick as the blink of an eye. That is why we have to insure that it is a bliss when things does not happen as we wished from the first time because when they will happen later we will appreciate how and when that stuff or achievements belongs to us. The life is only a matter of time, the end of it is unknown.  This is the life, it may seems complicated and full of actions. That is why we have to look for it from different aspects till we find the areas that fit on us.
