back on Blog
The problem with the Blog site has been resolved and I once again have access.
Thanks to Stef for taking an e-mail and putting it on the site.
Today, Friday, the rains came again. Hard and fast. The front part of my bed-sit has a corrugated tin roof. As I was sitting there relaxing after school and opening my parcel from Canada I was almost deafened by the sound. It was intense. Then 15 minutes later - peace and quiet. One must not go out without either an umbrella or a rain jacket at any time.
There have not been any monkey sightings this week.
This morning I assisted the Home Economics teacher with the 7-alpha class. We made vegetable samosas. They were delicious. Two groups made the pastry and two groups made the filling. I worked with the groups making the filling. We had to dice potatoes and then fry them. The frozen peas (to save time) were cooked and then added to the potatoes along with all sorts of spices. The chili peppers had to be diced. The potato and pea mixture was then spooned onto triangles of pastry and then deep fat fried by the teacher.
We all enjoyed our rather spicy samosas just before lunch.
The afternoon was spent with 3 groups in DEL and I am meeting with the DEL leader to discuss the students tomorrow morning.
The weekend looks relatively quiet at this point. Subject to change.
Stay tuned.

Make sure you get the samosa recipe, and if at all possible, a step by step picture shoot of the process ;)
