DAY 2
"The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Quran, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan), he must fast that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number (of days which one did not fast must be made up) from other days.
Allah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you. (He wants that you) must complete the same number (of days), and that you must magnify Allah for having guided you so that you may be grateful to Him" (2: 185).

Chocolate Chip Cookies. I’m not expecting too much of myself and am using a Betty Crocker mix but my favourite recipe website http://allrecipes.com has all kinds of recipes and is not too complicated for a simple cook like me.
