Scrumpy Jacks

Mrs M: Do you like these crisps, they are new, I haven't had them before.

Mr M: Yeah, they are really nice, and only have 82 calories.

Mrs M: They are really light, when you eat them you expect there to be more to them.

Mr M: They are just like the Scrumpy Jacks.

Mrs M: Scrumpy Jacks? Whats that.

Mr M: You know those other crisps just like these. You will know them when you see them.

Mrs M: I don't know any Scrumpy Jacks, they were probably around well before my time.

Mr M: No, you eat them sometimes, they are round and the same shape.

Mrs M: You mean Snack A Jacks!

Rishta Events

Rishta Events  is collaborating with Marriage Potentials  for a marriage event being held on Saturday 5th March 2011 in London.

The event is open to all Muslims who are looking for a marriage partner. Please go on the respective websites for further details as well as forwarding the link onto any family members or friends who may be interested.

Remember;

Marriage in Islam has been declared 'half of one's faith.' It has been reported that the Prophet Muhammad PBUH said ‘A person who posses the means to marry (i.e. he is able to work etc. to support a wife and children) and does not marry then he is not from amongst us (i.e. the believers).’

Allah SWT has also commanded His people to marry in Chapter 24, Verse 32; ‘And wed the single among you’.

So for those of you who are looking to get married do have a look at the website and make an effort to attend this event, who knows you may just find your special someone.....................inshAllah.

Allah SWT's tests

Allah, Glory be to Him, says in the Quran: "Do men think that they will be left alone on saying, 'We believe,' and that they will not be tested? We did test those before them, and Allah will certainly know those who are true from those who are false" (Quran, 29: 2-3)

Sugar Leaf Photography

While surfing the internet going from one site to another I came across a blog called The Kissing Tree, this is written by a lady called Lexia and is based around her work as a photographer. The blog dates back to October 2008 with pictures she has taken throughout the past few years of wedding, babies, pregnancies and much more. Your thinking pregnancies, weird! But just have a look at the blog and scroll through and you will see what I mean. Her pictures are so different yet capture the moment so well. The images are striking yet touch the heart. Lexia is based in Florida but also is able to travel to her clients when the need be (even abroad), she offers a very competitive package while her husband Dustin specialises in videoing and turning them into vintage movies. Could you get a more creative couple?????

For more information you can visit their website Sugar Leaf Photography

These are few of my favourite pictures from Lexia's blog;
