Hmm and it appears that my dates are either Naboot or Sari dates. And apparently the Prophet's dates (saaws) are Ajwah.

My mother-in-law makes an awesome date and walnut cake. I'm going to ask her for the recipe because I have about a kilo of dates, and there's only two more days of Ramadan left...

I'm very fortunate to have a spouse of the same faith as I am. He already had a dedicated prayer space, and he made room for me in it as well - including my own musalah (prayer rug). It's really comforting to know that it's always ready, and sometimes already occupied. :)

Lodge should be fine unless you are on a Kosher/Halal diet, as their prea-seasoned pans/grills may have been cured with pork fat. Their pots used to be Kosher but they moved away from that some time ago....

Palestinian Salad - chop tomatoes, cucumber, olives, lettuce, and then dress with salt, lemon or lime juice, olive oil, and chopped fresh mint or dried mint. I make mine very tomato heavy, and I sometimes add other veg. It's really good, especially with sandwiches.
