They were introducing Lester to the traditional meal for the occasion and the father is a baker. He talked about wanting his daughters to attend college and have a better life than he has had. He served foods that he had baked. So, two questions: is Eid al Ada considered a holiday? I have Muslim co-workers- do I say "happy Eid" like I would "happy Thanksgiving"? By the way, one of my Muslim co-workers is looking forward to having her whole family over for Thanksgiving because it is a U.S. holiday and she is glad to be a citizen. Works for me

Since there are two members here who are of that faith, why not PM
them and ask "direct from the horse's mouth" so to speak?
