Holidays

Hey!  I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.  It has been a long time!  

For awhile I wasn't very busy, but about a week ago I hit the ground running.  Driving all over the province.  I spent the end of December and the begginning of January house sitting for Graham Philpott and his family, with the team.  We had a great time at his house.  We all spent Christmas with our host families and would visit them on the weekends.  

The picture above is from Christmas day.  We had a church service in the morning then we ate lunch together.  Malcolm and his family were not with us because they were in Johannesburg,  Christmas actually wasn't very eventful.

So this is a picture of some delicous banana bread that Lizzy baked at the Philpott's home.  Lizzy did lots of baking while Garrett did a bit of frying (onion rings and french fries) and I cooked some pasta.  We actually had an interesting time trying to cook foods since we didn't have very many spices or anything for good flavors.. we felt a bit limited, but we ended up doing well for ourselves.  Unfortunately this was the only picture I took of our creations.  So the Philpott's were in Capetown and they drove a camper, so we had a suspicion that they brought their spices and seasonings with them for cooking.  I'll see if I can find a picture of their camper/Kombi/motorhome for my next post.
