Happiness on the shelves

Here winter is a very long term so as usual I have started my winter preparation this weekend.I was busy with 20 kilos of vegetables and fruit on Saturday. We dry pepper to stuff during winter , we make pickles , store some vegetables into the deepfreeze and make different kinds of jam. I made apricot , strawberry and peach jam.
There is a short rewarded poem I heard on the radio once. I always remember and murmur that poem when I fill the jars with jam.

''I didn't know that my mother's happiness was hidden in the jars of jam that were standing on the shelves. ''

As long as we are healthy enough to do some prep for our family and more than that as long as we have a neat family and relatives ,some good neighbours and friends to eat with us happily what would we like more?
Elhamdulillah.

Mubarek bir geceye dogru yurekten dokulebilenler

Hayat denen su colde
Kimisi seraplariyla dolanir durur
Kimisi vaha bulduğunu sanir anlatir durur
Bazisi onu dinler hayale durur
Kimisi de vahasini bulur kipirdamaz hep orda durur

Kimisi bulur o denizi kenarinda seyre durur
Kimisi atlar susuzluğunu giderir
Bilir ki ictikce yanar , yandikca icer
Hak aşigi olur Elhamdulillah.

Yarabbim zerrelerim adedince sana sükürler olsun
Ya bana iyi olmam icin bu firsati vermeseydin.
Yarabbim firsatlarimi artir . Yolundan ayirma . Son nefesimize kadar imanimizi yoldas et.
Butun sevenlerimi ve sevmeyenlerimi , akrabalarimi arkadaslarimi , komsularimi, ailemi, zalimlerin zulmune ugrayanlari koru, onlari iyiye ve guzele sevket, haklarinda herseyin hayirlisini nasip et.
Allah'im sen neden hosnutsan bana onu yaptir.
Allah'im '' la havle vela kuvvete illa billah'' senin katinda ne tekabul ediyorsa ona '' La havle vela kuvvete illa billah diyorum.
Allah'im senden ihlas diliyorum. Senin magfiretini ve rizani diliyorum.
Allah'im Ya hayyu , ya kayyum rahmetinin hurmetine senden yardim diliyorum.
Sen islah et ve sabrimi artir ve goz acip kapayincaya kadar beni nefsimle basbasa birakma.
Bizleri hidayete erdir . Peygamberimiz Hz. Muhammed (S.A.V) 'in sefaatini nasib eyle.

Couldn't find a title

Last night we went to a restaurant for dinner for Adana Kebab. We had missed the kebabs of our town during holiday. Everything was nice during holiday but only we didn't like kebabs there. Meat of that area was not delicious for us. Now I understand why Mediterranean kitchen is favourite in the Agean region. They don't use meat mostly. Here in the middle Anatolia we dont have the sea , olive trees , peach trees and so much green areas but we have delicious meat and wheat products and generous restaurants with delicious food.
But I will miss mussels stuffed with rice, and seaweed. I got the recipie from a man in the open market . After the recipie he asked us if we drank alcohol . We replied no. He said why seaweed then . This goes well with Turkish raki. I said no difference no food wasn't created for alcoholic drinks. Sure it is useful. I prepared it in both style as I was told .
with yoghurt and garlic first . It was delicious . Normally when yoghurt and garlic waits it has a bad smell but the following day it was still fresh . Then I realized why they say seaweed keeps young. I prepared the other half in another day with lemon and grape cidar . It was nice too. Cause we stayed in aunts villa other villa neighbours tasted and they liked it too.
Bye the way we exchanged recipies with each other .
During holiday I bought some popular books but as I planned I couldn't read them. Started one and now I am looking for to reading it when I am ready to read.
