Amman .... Winter Time!!
One of the things to miss in Jordan winter time is having a hot hot Mansaf jameed karaki in cold weather, noses red, wearing a jacket and with you hands sliding into el-seder with boiling laban pouring over the rice and meat and you sitting among all people enjoying the orgasmic feeling which would last the entire day and seriously placing you and 5000 others at risk while driving back home.
Shawerma places are great places to go to, not only because you'll be about to have the best fast food ever made to date, but also because each shawerma place has a hallmark which you'll not forget. In Shawerma Reem - Mojamma3 Jaber there are always cats going in (sometimes not going out ooops) and young boys walking barefoot even at 1 am and begging for money. Once I bought one of them a sandwich but he refused to eat it although he looked deah hungry, and said he only wants money, kinda makes you wonder who's sending this boy at 1 am to beg.
And when it's winter time, raining and the charmful weather broadcaster Jamal El Mousa abo 3yoon khothor expects "thulooj 3ala el mortafa3at foog el 850 meter methel mortafa3aat 3ajloon wal shobak", the best thing to do is walk inside Gerard ice-cream and the ice-cream man would expect you to either ask for a change or wal3a but you'd surprise him ...."ma3lesh beddi skooob Nutella" :) .... Well that was before their Sa7lab era.
At the moment snow is expected , people go into a "91-war mania" or "any 29 Shawwal mania" and rush into grocery stores to buy as much bread and fool el-kasee7 as they can, but I would be home laying my big cold ass on the heater while my toes are freezing. In schooldays we would be down on our knees praying that night " our dear Lord o pleeeease let it snow we don't wanna go to school tomorrow".
Amman sweet Amman :)

Oooohh!! Hareega this is such a beautiful post... yeah I'd always sit on the floor with my back to the radiater, and my aunt would tell me that I shouldn't sit on the cold floor in winter!! and oh everytime we hear that "thulouj mutawaqqa3a 3ala murtafa3at el shobak wa 3ajloon" my little bro would ask my dad why in earth we don't live in Shobak ;)
Winter in Amman is very sensational.
And it wont be complete if it's not a white Christmas!!
Hareega,try to tell one of your coworkers that it does snow in Jordan, and watch their reaction!lol...
I love the Kastana,mmmmh Kastana..I love a hot Yansoon...
I love how rumors spread crazy.
I remember last Feb, when we went to "Maghtas" in Ghoor, and people started calling us "Amman is gonna be closed, come back come back, it's snowing like hell,Swefeyeh is now closed, I repeat,it's closed! lol when we reached Amman you could barely notice any flake.
Yeah,and people would be rushing to bakeries and grocery shops like it's the end of days or something...
Nice post dude...
Looool Lina!! Studying on the floor in winter is just the best thing..yeah and people will tell u don't do it, u'll be sick!
Kastana man Kastana w bas.
In utah (which, btw, is the largest consumer of ice cream in the US) they eat ice cream right and left. It may be below freezing and some guy wearing flip-flops and shorts (i am not making this up) will be eating ice cream.
lina.... yeah i always envied my aunt who lives in 3ajloon because they'd have a day off work when it snows, until once they were locked for a week in their house because of the snow !!
Firas exactly just let 5 7abbat 3azeez fall down and you'll see people running out of work rushing to their hosues and if you're driving that time you'll definitely see 2 or 3 accidents on your way home
Jameed ... if people in Utah can't drink tea or coffee what do you want them to have in winter time? Dude you're encouraging me more and more to visit UTah :D :D
Praying @ night for the snow to fall and get outta schools <=== VERY TRUE :)
What is nicer than innocent childhood??
Amman's winter is truely missed,, sigh
Great post Hareega :) Very nostalgiac.. totally made me smile :)
but am I the only one who doesn't get lazy with a good serving of mansaf? I think it's lighter than other stuff we eat..
hareega,
its -5 and snowing where i am, there's nothing more i miss than a hot mansaf or shawerma reem!
your post moved the hell out of me!
nice, totally made me smile :)
exceer. sighs la bokra el sobe7
