FAQ about UAE

When people find out I used to be a dietitian, I always get the same questions...
Can you help me lose 30 pounds? and... If you are a dietitian, why are you eating that cheesecake?
When people find out I live in Abu Dhabi, I get a lot of blank stares. I also get questions and the most common one is
"Where exactly is Abidabi...East Texas? "

Well, it is definitely east. I too had to look it up on the map just like I have with most of the places we have lived. I recall my thoughts at the time..."Oh look, there is the Persian Gulf as in "The Gulf War"and a nice view over to Iran, you know the one with the nukes and hatred of all things American. "

This week I'll share more questions and answers during the first annual FAQ week. If you would like to get into the spirit of FAQ week and ask questions you are more than welcome to join in the fun. It will be a great way to get ready as we count down to Ramadan.....12 (or 11) more days
