Good Cookin'

Nairobi West, Kenya


The other day me and Kyran were going up the elevators and this man who lives in the same apt building came up with us, i forgot the comment he made and i asked him where he was from, He said TX! I was like "Me tooo!" Turns out he was from Arlington. I asked him what brought him to Kenya, and he said he was a pastor with a church and is training missionaries. As he said that it was time for us to exit the elevator but just before the door closed he said in a loud country voice " I Prayed and prayed but them Cowboys didnt make it to the Super Bowl!!" LOL too funny!!

Yesterday we had our meeting, and during the watchtower we noticed the accents of some of the visitors. Here you can always tell when there is another fellow American visiting :)

The Brother came up to me and Kyran and introduced himself. He asked me where i was from and i said "TEXAS! Dallas area and you?" He said Austin!! That was cool. i stayed talking to him and his wife the entire afternoon.

They told me they are serving as International Servants in Sudan. I remebered them from the International Convention back in December. I told them it was their experiences that encouraged me the most! And that is the truth. Hearing about the conditions they lived in when they first moved there had helped me appreciate how good we had it living in Nanyuki :)

Later on i went in service for a bit with one of the sisters while Kyran went home to cook :)
He made Pasta and Meat! Me and 2 sisters came home to find 4 boys layed out on the couches waching TV..So we ate and went for ice cream :)

Its nice just being relaxed with nothing to do, boring, but nice. Today im making BBQ chicken, steamed asparagus with other veggies, and baked potato with all the trimmings. Im gonna have to make the 'bacon bits' from scratch since they dont sell them already made.

Thanks to "All Recipes.com" I'v been trying out new things. I know everyone in the world knows how to make Deviled Eggs, but i had never tried to before. So i decided to boil 24 eggs and make them!! They turned out great with salad :)

Im gonna make something new everyday till i get tired.

I learned how to make BBQ sauce!!!! Its really good if i can say so my self. I got a lil too excited to cook and started making dinner around 1pm. Its now 245 and dinner is pretty much done..hmmm what to do?...

Im gonna prepare for meeting now so i will talk soon!!


Love always< Drea

There is no doubt that the climate change affects many touristic areas transforming them unexpectedly. The need for greet tourism becomes acute, we have to act more responsibly and start protecting these places. I had the chance to have a green vacation and I am telling you that I had the same exact fun as before only this time I felt better because I know I don’t affect any touristic area. Turkey is a great place for green tourism, I will definitely go back there.
