Ahlan Wa Sahlan!
Welcome!
In Arab tradition a visitor is welcomed as family and treated as such. We greet them with open arms and hospitality. There is no other way in our eyes. So, welcome to my home, family. Tell me about yourself, your family and any news as I get you a drink and snack. What would you like?
Mind your manners and be a good guest though. I’m also an auntie who doesn’t cotton to disrespect. That’s my Southern, Ghetto and Female hospitality. We’re all just one big family after all. Show respect and you get respect. I’ll learn ya one way o’ t’nother. The choice is yours.
So, what would you like to eat and drink? What would you like to learn or talk about?
Spill the tea, already! I surely have and then some, honey child. Let’s get started already!
Y’allah!
