Hello everyone at Plymouth
I am back from NewYork.I couldn’t mail earlier cause of jet lagg. My routine is disturbed. I had great fun at New York. It was touching to meet my family members after a long time. But I missed all of you and told them about the learning experiences and about the moments I spend at Plymouth. Everywhere I went in New York. I will send you my picture.
Everywhere I went like Empire state building, Times Square, Bradford, central park &statue of Liberty etc etc…I thought about all of you. At Manhattan a Chinese cartoonist sketched my cartoon, it is much more beautiful then me
I would like to add here that near my brother’s house in long island I saw Robert frosts middle school. So Robert frost and you all were with me everywhere.
I showed the sash and certificate to my director, chairperson and colleagues. They are all very impressed and appreciated me a lot.
Back at home my kids and husband have memorized all of you and your names.i told them all about my course work here… no doubt it was like a military course.
When I opened the site today I was very happy to see my baryani dishes. it reminded me of the tedious work we did in kitchen I hope all will remember the kitchen experience with me especially nighat ,saima ,huma, sohail.and sean who helped me in baking baryani.
Mary Ann thank you very much for the family pictures and the card you dropped at my door. it warms my heart when ever I see it.
Kim best wishes for you and your hubby. And in my opinion Kim, Sean will be the best maid of honor.
Hey Sean how r u? Send the special presentation made by u to me.
Blake tell me the secret of your glowing skin, I also brought a lot of cosmetics from New York.
Howdy Kate, I bought a bracelet like your belt.
D I bought coco, (channel).so you r with me in Pakistan.
Michelle enjoy vacation with your family.

Thank you all once again for your hospitality and for making this visit a once in life time experience. Hope we all stay in touch.
