Thank you ☺️

[@PeleRana-pp6zc]

This video reminded me of the Christmas episode of Geraldine in Vicar of Dibley where she gets fed at each house she goes to. It was such a hilarious episode. You have to suffer for your art as they say. Those children were so cute and looked lovely in their new dresses. As far as asking a man the name of a dish, they’re the same everywhere. Pudding indeed!!! Hope you had a lovely time 😊🇵🇸🍉

[@carriepatsalis]

😁you’re the second person to mention the vicar of Dibley ep.. I need to watch it now!! The kids were so excited! What a lovely celebration! 🙌

[@mehnazrashid5127]

@@carriepatsalis hi carrie, i'm from bangladesh. inshaAllah you're doing well in afghanstan now, just watched the first part of your visit. i want to share that the colorful sweet dish you ate is called 'shemai/sevaiya/vermicili' which is a fried dough soaked in warm sweetened milk and garnished with nuts and dried fruits. what the brits call 'pudding', we call it 'firni/payesh/kheer' varying in the ingredients used and the heaviness/thickness of the milk and amount of suger/jaggery used. lastly, the pudding which you called the creme brulee has same ingredients, but we call it pudding. i don't know why!
