By Zainab Susi It’s been 49 years since my Abu (father) passed away. Every year on Father’s Day, I miss him. Wish he was alive so I can call him, Abu. My Amee told me when I was three years old, my Abu had passed away. I don’t have any […]

By Zainab Susi There are no words to describe how important our mothers are for us. It has been almost eight years since I lost my mom (Amee) . I have an emptiness inside of me and a big hole in my heart. There is not a day that goes […]

Sadly, we are all seeing so much sorrow happening locally and internationally. However, there are lots of good things happening too.

By Zainab Susi Dear community!  The disaster in Maui is heartbreaking and extremely sad to witness. The Hawaiian people have been welcoming visitors and guests for so long, it’s our turn to support them.  I would like to fundraise for them, but in a slightly unconventional way. I enjoy cooking […]
