I finally finished correcting and updating the second edition of our first coffee table book, “Our Life & Adventures in Pakistan.” The software I used is Booksmart by Blurb.com.

We all wore shalwar kameezes yesterday to join the school celebration of Pakistan Day. This was both a fun and a sad day for me.
