More food adventures
Food is such an integral part of our culture. Learn how to change your diet and your eating habits, and you’ve taken a step toward learning how to be a missionary. Do things like feeding one another, eating without utensils, eating strange foods, and you grapple with comfortable habits.
This week living in our house we have Tim and Erin, Anne, Heather, Marissa, Nichole, Tim R., and our regular crew which includes Molly and Whimsy. Yesterday we sent them to an Oriental market to buy their food, learn a recipe, and bring it back to our home to cook. We told them they had to get something from the air, the sea, and the air. At least two of them had to have stinky ingredients. They made:
Shrimp dumplings
Leg of pig
Korean salad
Tilapia goreng
Spring rolls
Exotic fruits salad
Yuki guki soup
It was provocatively delicious. Today they woke up looking more like missionaries to me.

Great to see you guys are having fun! Just one thing I want to let you know about eating and the differences in cultures. Here in Africa you are only allowed to eat with your right hand! Not with both hands and NOT with the left hand!!!
A FYMer here in Swaziland had the opportunity to serve the chief, but she used both hands. What a fiasco!!
Can’t wait to see you guys here in Swaziland!
actually, we told them that. Marissa broke the rules. Carike – you need to tell everyone why the left hand is “unclean.”
