Re: Female Personal Hygiene
kaddoo (for all the nondesis who care, it's pronounced kudd-ddoo with the "dd" sounding like the 'th' in 'then') IS pumpkin. I looked it up on google and more than one of the results confirms this.

Re: Female Personal Hygiene
some often confusing veggies/fruits in urdu:
karela (aka bitter gourd):

kaddoo

lauki/lawki/loki (aka. bottle gourd, chinese melon or opu in the US)

baingan (eggplant):

couldnt find what 'squash' was in urdu but i think the word squash includes zucchini (turayee), pumpkin and other varieties.

Re: Female Personal Hygiene
btw AWESOME semiannual sale going on at Bath&Body Works. Their soaps are on sale. Next week the perfumes will go on sale and the body butter (the lady wasn't sure but said next week or week after). I stocked up on soap and next week I'll stock up on perfumes and lotion inshallah :rollery:.
I always go to B&BW and end up coming out smelling gooooood . Plus I bought this awesome tanktop/dress thing last night for like $8, stole my sister's jeans and hijabs and made a whole new amazing outfit alhamdulillah. I feel purdy
