They have done the best job adjusting to this very different culture!  They find friends wherever we go, and run around and laugh with them.  Even though they speak two […]

Day 2 of 21: Food supply

July 8, 2014

Well, remember my list of the whole month’s supply for food?  It got here…most of it.  The brownies, chocolate chips, and applesauce didn’t make it, but I think we’ll live.  Actually, we didn’t get all of our diapers either and pull ups, so we are trying to see how that is going to work! I […]

Learning the ropes

February 28, 2014

Ants: You see 1 ant, you smash it with your finger.  You see a few ants, you just ignore them.  You see a ton of ants marching in a line, you spray them with All Purpose cleaning spray and wipe them up! Bananas: Almost every kind of banana that I buy is a “cooking banana” […]
