Eid-ul-Fitr used to be the day I used to look forward to the most when I was a kid. Because on that day, I would get my pocket money for the rest of the year, and wear my new Eid clothes. Time has passed, and now it isn't payday nor do I have to wait for Eid to shop for new clothes. And I have gone from celebrating with family to spending Eid in an office far away from home. But one thing that has remained constant is the tradition of having biryani on Eid. My mom makes the world's best biryani so mine isn't half as good. But I am sure my biryani would make her proud.
