OCTOBER 28
Well, the power went out for quite some time last night. Got to get out Melanies amazing grill and she grilled downstairs with the 4 inch spider on the wall who had large pinchers like a scorpion....I was outta there asap!
Meanwhile I was upstairs with the other headlamp getting the beans and rice and babies taken care of.(luckily you cook beans and rice ahead of dinner time and fry the meat last!) We are learning to cook Costa Rican style. Just haven't quite... got it mastered...or used to having so much beans and rice again. But, I am sure it will become REAL familiar soon enough! Melanie loves the ants that are constantly parading through our cabin. They love us, what can I say? The kids were entertained with home alone all the while, praise god for computers and dvd's! I am happy to say I did find a REAL delicious ice cream here!Melanie found it actually. It was great chocobon ice cream. I felt EXTREMELY thankful! WE both did! Love you all! Still can't find my camera. REAL bummed on that one! But, praise the Lord, I am sure it will work out.
And I did see a wood scorpion last night as I went out to get the laundry out to hang...I gathered all the children to show them and then I killed it. I was proud of myself. It was cool looking...just didn't want to get too close.
