I was very poorly and mustered all the energy I had to attend this session.
My left shoulder was very sore.
Many thanks to Tayyab, Ahmed and Chef Ajay for their hospitality.
The session began with a slide presentation with Ahmed

Xmas Sustainability Session What makes the festive period special?
Ikea Lagom Live Dec 21
As a practicing Muslim I was born and educated in the UK.
I remember Christmas with great fondness, school pantomimes, a trip to the theatre, Christmas cards, parties, presents and family.
Christmas always reminds me of my parents and how hard they worked to put bread on the table.
I still love all the Christmas vibe, the energy, decorations and joy of spending quality time with family. I miss those times!

Xmas Crafts Plastic Free Xmas Crackers Ikea Lagom Live December 21
I have seen Ramadan and Eid piñata's online as an alternative to Christmas crackers but I feel this concept is not sustainable and not zero waste compliant.

I love this idea and hope I can find lots of videos how to wrap gifts sustainably.

Recycling During Xmas Ikea Lagom Live December 21
There isn't much waste during Ramadan. I'm very careful not to over cook or over eat. Most of my waste is vegetable and fruit waste.
Eating healthier is also better for my PCOS, Endometriosis and shoulders.
I think I will definitely invest in an Air fryer, a bread cake maker and a kefir maker in 2022.
Tayaab and Ahmed asked us to create a wreath using a wire hanger and try to implement the ideas above.
I hope to use these ideas and differentiate for Ramadan and Eid.
I particularly loved the sustainable wrapping presents. I'll try to use scarves and vintage duppattey.
I used some old IKEA star lights I'd purchased from the Dubai Media City IKEA in 2010 and wrapped them around my old fair trade Christmas tree stand.
