Re: Guests/Hosts...
yup, me too, shoor! but we dont have a lot of family in toronto so whenever they do come over, i'm pretty happy to host them! :) the good thing is that my fam has been in canada for so long, they've learned not to just drop by the desi way. they call beforehand and make sure we're home and vice versa. plus we're all so busy and live so far, the when we get together its an event and a party and so much fun. i think it adds value to the whole experience. the only people i would feel comfortable dropping in on would be my parents.
sara, i remember those days in karachi... i sympathise. i remember mum going thru a lot of crap at times cos so much family would come over but she couldn't even complain to anyone. ugh.
mamaof3, you're gori??! is your hubby desi?
