RAMADAN FESTIVAL

We,as a nation,have many religious festivals and we are so close to them that in every turn we celebrate them with the same happiness.One of the most popular one is Ramadan Festival,it is also known as 'candy festival'because we mostly eat candies,sweets and baklavas as we celebrate it after the fast month.A week before Ramadan Festival,we start to prepare ourselves,our stomoach to eat those sweet things and our homes for guests.
As beginning, we start to preparations with our homes since we think that when guest come their first attention goes to appearence of our homes.So as to make our homes attractive,curtains are washed,armchairs are cleaned and new carpets are spreaded,that is,we cleaned all around our homes carefully.Then also,we make our homes more attractive with nice scents and some ornaments such as flowers which are special for festval.Thus,our home is eye cathcing for guests.
Following preparation is ourselves which is as important as homes.A week before festival, we go to shopping in order to buy new clothes and mainly children want new clothes because in Festival,they enjoy themselves very much by gathering candies so, they want to seem eye chatcing.In the first day,we wake up early,wear those new clothes and have breakfast with them.So, to wear new clothes shows that Ramadan Festival is vey important for us.
Last preparation is our stomach to eat Festival's sweets.Particularly,in festivals we make some special sweets for our guests.Firstly,the ninght before Eve, we make baklavas and sweets but we don't add sweet fruit drink because we want them to be fresh when we serve to guests.We buy a lot of candies for both guests and children since that day they come to gather those candies.We also buy soft drinks and snacks so as to serve with sweets.The reason why we buy a lot of such things is because we finish fast month in which we don't eat much thing.
With excitement preparation of Ramadan Festival we don't understand how time pass and always w look forward to it and when it come, our home, our stomach and sweets are always ready to celebrate Ramadan Festival.
