What's a Man's Bare Minimum?

HAPPY THURSDAY COUSINS!!!!!!!! Belated Eid Mubarak to you all! May Allah accept our good deeds during the holy month of Ramadan and allow us all to see another one next year - Aameen! This week we gave a recap of our Eid festivities - shoutout to our very own Sara for holding it down! Amir is on the hunt for some Halal bone broth...and no, he does not want to make it at home lol, anyone know where to find one? After we recapped our Eid weekend, we talked about the upcoming HPN weekend event, including the gala night with several esteemed panelists and guests, and of course the MIXER! Amir and Sara discussed what the bare minimum for both men and women are, especially if you are looking for a potential spouse and shared some tips on how to approach someone during these types of events because we all know it can get a little awkward. And lastly...we don't want to limit networking/mixer opportunities to just our Hararis so if you'd be interested in a Cousin Connection Mixer...drop a comment/DM and let us know! We might be brewing something in the near future! You know what to do...grab your snacks, turn us all the way up while you clean, chill, or drive, and hang out with us like always.

In Our Conspiracy Theory Era...Againnnn

HAPPY THURSDAY COUSINS!!! Eid Mubarak to our wonderful cousins!! In this week's episode, Amir has been sleep-deprived because his cats have decided he doesn’t deserve rest, Sara spiraled into conspiracy territory again...curious to know if you guys have been keeping up with any of the ones we mentioned? We casually touch on global politics (as always lol), and somehow end up having one of our realest conversations about Ramadan, family, and what life might look like with kids. Also… we might be hiring an AI assistant?? Not fully sure what’s going on there either.
