Just two days stand between us and one of the most celebrated seasons of the year. Who wouldn’t feel the excitement for Eid, with its warm friend and family gatherings and the endless variety of dishes on every table?
As we eagerly await the start of the Eid vacation, there’s a familiar wave of emotions that sweeps through every home, signaling the arrival of Eid vibes everywhere. Here are some iconic things that dominate our pre-Eid days:
Delayed Tasks
It’s widely agreed upon that putting off tasks before Eid isn’t necessarily considered laziness. It’s all part of the transition from Ramadan to Eid, perfectly captured by the “After Eid” famous phrase.
Leftover Meals
There’s no need to worry about cooking. Just enjoy whatever you already have stored in your fridge. One of the highlights of Eid is the delicious meals that adorn every table, so go ahead and accept your mother’s or partner’s offer of leftover meals until Wednesday.
Endless Cleaning
This tradition prevails in Egyptian households throughout all seasons, with a higher dose during Eid vacations. Even though the house may appear tidy, you’ll find yourself cleaning every corner, infusing the entire place with the energy of Eid.
Unlimited Shopping
We’re only a week into April, and our bank accounts are already crying out for help. However, shopping is an extremely enjoyable aspect of Eid; with numerous expenses, gatherings, and endless purchases for Eid clothes that get us all into the vibe.
