Happy Easter

  Regardless of what you celebrate, I know lots of you are very interested in British culture and traditions, so today on Easter Sunday we'd like to share how we celebrate this event. Will and I were not brought up in religious households, but lots of Brits celebrate traditions like Christmas and Easter regardless of their religion. At Easter, we have 2 bank holidays - Good Friday, and Easter Monday. This means that most people get 4 days off work! Usually, we travel back to our hometowns and visit our families. Will and I have done just that - we've spent Good Friday and Easter Saturday with my parents, and we're travelling to see Will's family today. On Good Friday, we typically eat hot cross buns. A hot cross bun is a spiced sweet bun usually made with fruit, marked with a cross on the top. We have them toasted with melted butter! Delicious! If you come to the UK on Good Friday I recommend that you try them! They are lovely with a cup of tea. On Good Friday we also d

Pembebasan Al-Aqsa dan Palestina

Perempuan dan anak-anak menjadi pihak paling lemah dan banyak menjadi korban dalam krisis Palestina. Sudah lebih dari 74 tahun Zionis Israel melakukan kezaliman terhadap rakyat Palestina, sebagian diantara target utamanya adalah perempuan dan anak-anak. Meski begitu, peran para perempuan Palestina memberikan andil besar dalam upaya mempertahankan Al-Aqsa. Para Murabitah (penjaga perempuan) dengan gigih ikut menjaga Al-Aqsa di garda terdepan. Tidak sedikit di antara mereka yang berulang kali ditangkap oleh tentara Zionis Israel. Salah satunya adalah Hanady Halawany yang sudah 25 kali keluar masuk penjara Israel. Sebelumnya, organisasi pembela hak tahanan Palestina yang memantau kondisi warga Palestina di penjara-penjara Israel, Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS), mengungkapkan 40 tahanan perempuan mengalami kekerasan, kondisi sulit, dan investigasi brutal di penjara Israel.

Valentines Day

  Today is one of my favourite holidays! It's the holiday that people love to hate! Some see it as the perfect opportunity to show someone that you have a crush on them, or that they are the apple of your eye! Other people think it's an excuse for businesses to pressure people into spending more money, or a way to shame single people. In my family, Valentine's Day is seen as a silly excuse to be extra romantic to your partner, and extra thoughtful to your friends and family. We do this in 4 ways: Valentine's Cards - We make cards for each other! They are nearly always hand made. I send three every year - one to my husband Will, one to my dad, and one to my lovely aunt Madeline. My aunt Madeline has sent me a hand made card every Valentine's Day since I was born! I now have 26 cards, and many of them are framed on my childhood bedroom wall! Traditionally the cards are meant to be anonymous, so we always sign them from 'your secret admirer' with lots of questi
