Further to
yesterday's post, it is comforting to find Hallab 1881 (Abdul Rahman Hallab & Sons) calling "lent" as is. No beating around the bush in obscure allusions! Apparently the sweets in question are milk and butter free (many people abstain from "whites" - i.e. milk, cheese etc....) which makes them "siami" (lent-approved). Great! And I had decided to abstain from sweet stuff throughout lent - but then maybe this does not count (drool!)....
