This month is the holy month for every Moslems in the world. Ramadhan comes, Ramadhan is the time when every Moslems is fasting in a month to feel the feeling how poor people face their life without food so we can be more generous to each other. Anyway, this month, I am not in my home country, I study overseas so I live without my family. We do fasting between the sunrise and the sunset, so after the sunset, we can break the fasting. Usually, I break the fasting together with my family. We sometimes have our favorite snacks which are any kind of snacks made by frying. One of them is Bakwan. I miss eating fried snacks, especially Bakwan in this case, with my family, to erase my homesick, I made my own Bakwan.
