5 things you DON'T know about MAIOUSH!

When I first started telling my friends that I'm visiting my friend in LA...They were like: that's nice! When was the last time you saw her!?
My answer was: Never!!!

They were shocked! How could I visit someone I've never met in my life?! How can I trust a friend I've never seen and talked to face to face before!! How could I stay at her place for 2 nights?!

I was relaxed...

I knew I was visiting a friend who's never hesitated to help me out since I started finding my way in a far away country!
She was always there for me, either online chatting or picking up my calls...ANYTIME! Whether it was after midnight or just before sunrise...or even during an earthquake ;)

When it comes to people I communicate with online, I always believe my heart...I knew she was going to be as nice as she has always been on the phone...a friend who makes me feel I'm in Jordan every single time I hear her stories and laughs!

Once I saw her in the airport, I felt I've known her forever! We didn't stop talking and once I stepped into her house, I felt home right away! She has a super mom who made me feel comfortable...who spoiled me to DEATH!!!

She has a super family, mushallah...they all made me feel home...and I just can't be more thankful to God for being so lucky to have a home now in LA, can't be more thankful to blogging and of course to Qwaider Planet who made us meet one year ago!
Maioush is very well known in the blogging world...What you read from Maioush is what you REALLY see!! It's amazing! hehe...

5 things you don't know about her:
1- She is NOT that tall!! She keeps saying that she is too tall and stuff, but I found her height pretty normal! I was picturing myself meeting a really really tall girl but once I saw her I was like: You are not too tall! :d hehe

2- When she laughs...SHE CRIES! It is sooo hard to stop her tears! hahaha...I never knew about it,,,She would always laugh on the phone but with tears!?!?

3- She always used to make fun of me how I lose my way while driving and how I depend so much on my navi., well, she is THE SAME!!! but she just doesn't believe it and denies it :D and she hates the navi.!!
4- She is her mommy's spoiled girl!! Whenever she posts about something she cooked or cleaned, consider it a miracle!!! I saw her brothers reaction when they saw her cutting Vegetables in the kitchen...they were shocked :p hehehe

5- She eats MORE than what a 6 months pregnant woman does!!!! I swear she does! and it doesn't show :(

I had an amazing time there...a lot of food there and the visit to the observatory was awesome!
Thank you Maioush and family for the amazing weekend! You were just great...and remember you have a home in Santa Clara now :)


Today...I'm "cooking" mahashi...tomorrow msakhan, later on shishbarak, and then some kibbeh with tabbouleh, and of course there's always warbat for desserts!!!



ALLLLLLL Prepared by her mom...for me and Jeeeeeeeeeeeeej!!!

P.S: whenever you read a post about her two cousins "the twin" believe how much she loves them and how much she ADORES yusuf!!

i know what u mean about trusting ppl online, without even meeting them not even once...
i met my husband on our katb ketab day.... i simply followed my heart and he was up to my expectations, if not exceeding it...
so when it comes to online, just follow ur inner voice...

speaking of navigators and getting lost...u ladies, be grateful for living in ca, u can never get lost there, come to the east cost or mid west...u will get lost here for sure...
if i need to go somewhere, i simply mapquest it, tell my son the directions and he tells me exactly where to go adn how to come back...u know, boys, they keep track of roads and directions, unlike us, women!!
no offense...peace...
