Always the same mistake: consuming food from outside the home in Ramadan.
Never can I resist that momentary temptation, succumbing to the spices and fried delights gifted by generous friends.
But without fail, in the coming hours, I will be reminded of my folly, as my body recoils in discomfort and pain.
A month of fasting is not the time for experiments of taste. I always learn the hard way to keep to the tried and tested.
Keep things simple: a few modest morsels to fill an empty stomach. I should know myself by now.
