Day 12: A very lazy day

Friday is fasting day during this lent for catholics here in Dubai.  In the morning, I did not eat or follow any meal on the food list of the perfect diet.  When I arrived home in the afternoon, I drank a cup of milk and a glass of water.  I watched the movie The Impossible, the true to life story of a family during the phuket, thailand tsunamin in 2004.  Then, i watched Zero Dark Thirty, another true story of the fall of usama bin laden.  That was about it and then i fell asleep until maybe 8:30 p.m.  I did not feel hungry but forced myself to eat salad and oolong tea.  Caren arrived and we cooked another healthy option recipe calle UKOY.
