Tonight is my last night in town until next month when my MOTHER and SISTER are coming to visit! YAY!
On my last night before heading back to Jali, I always like to eat a really nice meal- tonight: barracuda and salad! The "restaurant" we went to had a big sign at the entrance. TRY A NEW FOOD- KWASA - 15 DALASIS. I like trying new foods...so order a Kwasa excited to try something new and exciting! Minutes later comes a croissant on a plate. I guess Kwasa kind of sounds like croissant...

Care packages
- Please don't feel obligated to send anything, a few people have asked of some things I've been missing from home, so here are a few things that would be amazing to receive on monthly mail run:
- letters! pictures, newspaper clippings from home, funny stories or articles, magazines
- granola bars, cliff bars, pop tarts, protein bars, nutrigrain bars - these are great when I'm biking in the "bush"
- cheese- any kind that would send well like powered alfredo mix
- dried fruit- apples, berries, oh man, anything!
- beef jerkey, chicken or tuna packets - anything protein, also those 6-pack crackers- like cream cheese and chives, etc
- your thoughts and prayers!
- I hear padded envelopes may be slightly cheaper than boxes, also try to send AIR MAIL or it could take 4-6 months to get here. Lastly, just put something generic like "non perishable gifts" with a value under $50 on the declaration form. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE SUPPORT!
