4th of July



I wasn't planning to do anything special for the 4th of July, but Isabelle really wanted to have a party. We invited some of our neighbors to come over for lunch after church.
The food was different than any 4th of July celebration that I have attended.
We had the following:
mango juice
curry chicken (Midhuna made this Indian dish for us)
rice
homemade bread
spam and egg salad (canned "ham," boiled eggs, and mayo)
fried plantains
chips (a rare treat- you can't buy them here, they have to be made from scratch)
banana yogurt (also made from scratch)
brownies

We enjoyed the food and the time with friends.

WOW! What a menu, sounds really yummy but I bet you'd trade for hotdogs, hamburgers and chips! :) Sounds and looks like a fun day!
