See I’ve heard many good things about Capital District and their material and clothe lines and stuff, thats why I wrote about buying their Modern Naydiya. I liked the concept and thought the material would be decent for such a low price. I should’ve known better.

The Naydiya I got turned out nothing like what I had in mind. I don’t know why I thought it’d have a real naydiya base, and then some kind of a fabric for the upper red strips. Apparently I didn’t take a good look at the picture before buying it coz it turned out all rubber.. but hey I like rubber slippers, nothing wrong with rubber, except this one was way too cheap. The material was cheap with horrible finishing, and the red color on top was too pale, not to mention that it was uncomfortable. I don’t think I’ll ever wear this one.

Epic Fail.

I was craving steak for today’s suhoor so I went to sultan center and got me a nice juicy wagyu ribeye, expecially cut for me. I Seasoned it with salt and pepper only, and then grilled it myself to a perfect medium. Thick and juicy.. woah what a great meal that was!

The Hienz Twisted ketchup (Fiery Chilli) was a nice touch along with the dijon mustard, and ofcourse my favorite mayo of all the spicy mazola mayo with chili.

Just noticed that Areo now comes with new flavors the above one is the dark chocolate and the below is the white chocolate. They are available in most of the co-ops across Kuwait.

Dont know if this is an old flavor or not, it comes also in caramel.

Thanks ANM

My friend just sent me this in an email. I loved the idea and got me one immediately! I just hope it’s comfortable. I let you guys know once I receive it.

UPDATE:
Before you consider this Naydiya you should read this post.

It was in the early 90’s the first branch was opened in Moscow.

During Ramadan we have Ghabgas every week, and sometimes twice a week, people always struggle with the menu, deciding the dishes is always the hardest thing to do. I had in mind that once it’s our turn, I would scrap all the dessert dishes and only include one dish, the knafa from knafa 3albal. I mean bala elkharabee6 ely malaina minhom and get back to basics.. People love knafa, and when its served hot and fresh it basically rules.

I was invited today to the testings of Viva’s new 4G Network capabilities, unfortunately I couldn’t make it, but I was told a lot of bloggers were invited to the Viva event along with news reporters. The technology being tested could take up the internet speeds in Kuwait up to incredible new heights, we’re talking 160MBPS+. I personally can’t wait till prices drop further and super fast internet speeds are available to everybody.

Also worth mentioning that Zain has started similiar tests a couple of weeks back. Read.

Thanks Fahad²

TV during Ramadan is awesome and the ads during this month are always great. 2 of my favorite ads this season are Wataniya telecom’s (shofo ghanouma) and Asnan Clinic’s. Both are very well done and Khfaaaf 6eena!! Loved them!

Made especially for the heaviest of sleepers! I bet you can’t go wrong or miss an appointment with this one.

Thanks Ahmad

It’s a relief when you get a dozen of new shiny Ga7fiyas! It suck when you keep delaying getting new ones, and the procrastinator within gets the best of you till you’re left with one ga7fiya. The guys sure know what I’m talking about.

I don’t know why they unravel the way they do so fast. I bought them a little less than a year ago, and I bought over 24 of them. When you take off the weekends, and divide the rest of the year over 24 Ga7fiyas, thats less than 11 uses per Ga7fiya. You’d think they should’ve lasted for about a year right? They didn’t. Some became loose and some tightened up, and the rest just unraveled and all sorts of strings were coming out of em. I threw most of the 24 ga7fiyas out after only a few months, and then I continued to filter out the bad ones till I was left with only one single tough Ga7fiya that persevered for over a month of daily usage.

Anyway. I finally managed to pass by khaya6 3gal today in sharg and got me a little over a dozen of new ga7fiyas. I’m used to have them made for me, but this time they had the exact same ones I use made and ready. Let’s see how long this new batch last.

The 3gal’s khaya6 is in sharg right across the street from Dasman complex.

We used to have Alghanim Electronics in Mishref’s co-op for couple of years until las month they’ve decided to take out Alghanim and replaced by gift shop which called Gate of Gifts .. Don’t think this was a right decision for taking Alghanim electronics out.

Thanks HNM

Ansam just told us that Napket are having new Ramadanian frozen yogurts flavors during this blessed month, like Vimto, Baithan (almond), Hail & Saffron, and Qamardeen (Which I think is some sort of a dried apricot?). Those flavors should be interesting to try when I get a chance.

Thanks Ansam
