Food in Ramadan

One of the things that comes into mind with Ramadan is food. Everyone is dreaming of that soup (sherba) and all of the great libyan and not libyan dishes, (boreek, mbatten, osban, pizza, dolma, etc. ) Especially that in a way they taste even better in Ramadan.

Now i am feeling more than full, i have been eating so much today, but not because i wanted to, i have seen a program about people not able to buy even bones to cook with them, they are sharing a small peace of cheese with their kids, and many many other cases. This is the reason why i am trying not to through away any type of food. Normally i have a difficulty during the first days of Ramadan finding the right amount of food to cook, i need 3 or 4 days to be able to cook the exact amount that we need, and then i almost don't have any kind of left overs.

I hope all of you deal the same way with food, i have heard a comment of another liban lady the other day, (God will ask as for all the food that we are throeing away)

Very late, but my best wishes for Ramadan for all of you.
