...or Happy Turkey Day!
Just incase you are worried that we are not getting our share of turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin pie, we are celebrating Thanksgivng here in Benin. Miranna has been in Parakou (a larger city in the middle of the country) with the other education volunteers in her group all week for a training. Charlie came up today to join us! Tomorrow (Thursday), after the training is done, we will be preparing a "traditional" feast...well, as traditional as we can make it here in Benin. There were a number of volunteers that killed the turkeys tonight- Miranna opted for preparing the stuffing. Even though there will be a number of substitutions of ingredients, the menu has al the traditiaonl dishes and I'm sure the meal will still be delicious!
We are well. We know many of you have sent us packages, but we have not yet been to Cotonou to check our mail. We will be able to do so in the next few weeks and we'll let you know when we get them. As they say here, "Merci en Avance!"
