Missionary Life 101 (pt. 2)


Food. One thing i mastered this we
ek was the art of making bread! It was quite intimidating at first and i had heard so many horror stories. But thanks to my Kitchen Aid, it was a cinch!


There were a couple things i did learn after i made and ATE that beautiful bread...you ALWAYS have to sift your flour. Here are the worms that were found in the flour after i found that out! Yuck!!!! Oh man, living in a 3rd world country...someone needs to write a manual about how tocook- because it was the ants first, which i embraced but the worms are crossing a line.

I also have learned how much time goes into "scratch" cooking. I do enjoy cooking so it has been fun but man the dishes that go with it are never ending. My kitchen always has dishes in it and the worst part is you can't leave them for thenext day because A) you need to use them again to make breakfast B) the ants and friends will be on them in the morning and C) the sink is pretty shallow, so they don't all fit!


Lastly, the inflation on food is ridiculously high. Here is what we got on our first trip to the market (21 items): all for $115.00!!!
