I’m sure I’ve said this many times but I’ll repeat it.
Since , this meant Ramadan ended at sunset on Tuesday.
So, we break the last fast of Ramadan in Shawwal, that is, on ‘Id-ul-Fitr.
For these reasons, we try, as we did last year, we made Chicken Biryani for the night. After all, why not celebrate at the start of ‘Id.

Oh my! You should’ve been there. To wake up to break fast to that smell. It was…heaven.
So, summarizing for the last day of Ramadan:
Tuesday 30 September 2008, Ramadan 29
Suhur: Hops Bread and butter and cheese
Iftar: Earl Grey Tea
Dinner: Chicken Biryani
Edit: When dad came from work, not only did he ignore mom’s directives and pass and pick up lamb, but he also bought a flower arrangement for her ;-)
