Before After

Shawarma

Today has been a busy day.  I had to go pick my Mother from the airport.  She's in town for a month-long vacation.  So happy to have her around.  Cleaned the bath tub.  I always have a hard time cleaning that.  And went out to buy our weekly groceries.  Hubby joined us in the supermarket, came in straight from work. 

Ever since we got married, we have always dined out during Thursday evenings - that's a weekend here.  He LOVES pizza, and craves to eat it at least once a week.  Today, however, I have convinced him to eat something healthier - shawarma.

Shawarma is made by placing strips of meat or marinated chicken on a skewer and grilled for a whole day.

 

The meat is rolled on the skewers, then pieces are sliced off when the meat is ready, onto a circular tray which is normally placed below the skewer.
The meat is then served when hot.

 

 

The meat can be placed between pita bread and to make a sandwich or it can be rolled up in lafa (a sweet, fluffy flatbread) together with vegetables and a dressing.

 

 

 

Work Out:  I did my usual stretching exercises, arm curls, squats, and 20 minutes on the elliptical machine.

Have a great day ahead of you!
