Here are the makings of a good party:
A table full of fresh baked cookies (including pumpkin bread made from home grown pumpkins), tea and coffee fixins...
... lots and lots of cold sodas (a few diet versions in the back for those among us who have blood sugar issues)...
... a stack of plastic chairs...
... a few speeches (in both local Arabic and English), along with prayers...
... a speech from an organization's Director... (who seems to refuse to stand on her feet for this blog!)...
... and 60 of your favourite friends and colleagues.
As you see, we had a little shindig today at the office! Good times were had by all, as we celebrated a momentous occasion in this country (just a wee bit late... but there were good reasons for that :) )
Today's party was a great mix of Western style office celebrations and local style shindigs. I think we captured pretty much the best of both worlds, and everyone had a good time.
