I realized that I haven't explained the way that we cook here. We don't have a stove or burners. We put three rocks together and start a fire underneath them. The kids wash the plates in buckets and we only have 3 knives to do all our chopping. I have really been getting into cooking here. I love spending time with the kids and whenever I am there they will all try to speak in English. Even the kids that don't speak English in class. Last night when I was walking back from the village with the kids they all started telling me how much they love me. Neema, one of the girls who lives at the school, told me two days ago that she was so sad that I wasn't there cooking with her. She was so happy when I dropped by the kitchen. I am so happy that I get to brighten the kids lives and let them know that someone cares about them.

Hi Ema,
It is so great reading your posts. Your descriptions of their cooking facilities is really something in this day and time. I do hope sometime soon that we will see some photos of these great foods.
