Passing Through This Life

I have never made any type of gloves before and i searched lots of different sites looking for the right one and couldn't find any so in the end i took a little bit from different patterns and brought them together so i tried to make them and then i could join the sides together but it just wouldn't happen .... so i ended up making a row of 35 and joining them together using a 3.00mm hook i found this way alot easier and in the end the glove says it all ... it might not be a style for some but my daughters and their friends loved them and great made in different colors

As salaamu 'alaykum I recently stumbled across Huda Academy, which is a project of Huda TV.  Ma sha Allah, courses are given by highly qualified Islamic teachers and all lessons are professionally recorded in a television studio! You should really check this out.

oh it has been to long since i blogged last ... with all the sickness in my home their wasn't really any time let one time for myself ... i had made a few new dishes but never got to take pic as my phone is playing up it keep freezing on me worse than the pc  so their was no chance to take pics i even made a few fingerless gloves or hand warmers and those too i couldn't take pics of ...and this was the first time i actually made them .... i took ideas form different patterns and brought them together ... they ended up simple but lovely and so lovely that friends of my daughter asked for me to make them and sell them to them so that's what i did ... but only on the days where i was up to it ...alhamdu`lilah it only takes a few hours to make them or they would never be made well that's about it .... i hope insha`allah soon to get back to blogging a bit more especially before my father comes next month so until then i will leave you with this Good manners ...

well thats the question ... what have i been doing or up to ..... well over the last month and a half my life has changed ... i have become more grounded and know where i ant to go with it .... even my dh has found a new lease of life that has affected all of us ..... sometimes we get so caught up in the day to day of our lives that we forget whats the most important and that is allah  and the reason we are here .... so this past month we have step it up and making sure that all in our house prays on time ... makes dikhr all the time ... we have even reduced the amount of tv watched ... masha`allah since we have been doing this  things are looking different  ... we feel lighter in our ways quran is played more and i have even gone back to reading and studying too ... which is great ... i`m loving this new lease on life and alhamdul`ilah allah has given us this chance too as you will have seen i havent posted much for a while and this begin the reason ... i havent...

so it has been a couple of weeks since i wrote a post  .... so now my routine has changed again ......i have had to start budgeting and menu planning so this has changed the way i do things a little i still get up at 6 and then after breakfast and bedrooms tidyed and 5the 2 year old dressed and feed it`s time to take the kids to school so by 8:15 i`m back i sit and have a cuppa and when thats finished i will get into the cleaning .... masha`allah by 10/ 10:30 i will be finished and when my hubby is here i will make some lunch unless i have something left over form the night before then i will heat that up and maybe make some small and light to go with it ... now on some days i will have to go back to the school to pick up the kids around 12 but most days it`s 4 .... so if i dont need to pick them up until four then i will feed those who need their lunch and after this clean up and start to prepare the dinner for the evening ... some time i will cook it through and o...

i`m always on the look out for a good recipe when it comes to chicken breast and maha`allah i found one here .......jazak`allah khair nicola for such a great recipe everyone loved it and insha`allahit will become a regular in our house so as usual i have to be the taster in my house and i got so carried away that i placed them on the table and nearly forgot to take the picture ...so thats why you only see a few left on the plate .... so big thumbs up

So here`s another one for you it`s an algerian dish called k`babh  this dish can be made with either chicken or meat balls so today i went with mince balls .... it is a very simple dish and very tasty ... to tell the truth it had been a while since i made it as alot of time i leave out the parsley and egg  but this time i went to whole way to getting this dish right  you must be careful that their isnt too much sauce or too little sauce  and as long as you can get that then the dish speaks for it`s self ... believe me it took me a long time to get  it right ... that now my dh nephew  says i cook better than his mum and he love to eat what i make TO MAKE THE MINCE BALLS mince meat (as much or as little as you like) a handful of rice ( this also depends on the amount of mince ) breadcrumbs (optional ) 1 egg black pepper salt cumin TO MAKE THE SAUCE 1 onion handful of chick peas black pepper salt cumin chips(fried potatoes) METHOD ...
