We all know many Muslims, no matter what culture, act crazy when guests arrive. But no one handles the situation like Arabs!
Women will be cleaning all day while the men do... well anyway they do something (just KIDDING. Shout out to all the Baba's!) Arabs mom's will even clean the attic even though we all know the mom's won't let the guests move from their seats!
Then comes the cooking...
Mama's will be cooking enough to fill all of masr when it's just going to bd the 8 of you. She'll be cooking macaroni bashamel, couscous, ruz and so much more. After they dome vacuuming the driveway, mum's will be threatening you with the wooden spoon and slipper for you to neglect evreything and host for the guests. When the guests arrive, the ladies will be sitting in the kitchen while the men in the living room watching MBC or some sport channel. The ladies will be talking about Allah* knows what! Then the ladies would be fighting over who get the honour of cleaning the dishes...
Arabs being Arabs, mom's will almost be screaming at the other to let go of the pan. And you're just there like :) well this is amusing. :p
I don't know how Arab mom's survive all these preparations but they do. #SuperMoms
Anyway, 4 hours later and the guests will be sipping on their piping, hot tea until they finally decided it's getting late and they need to get home. They then leave you to clean the whole house all over again.
Perks of being Arab! *wink wink*
