Mmm, food

One of the things we were looking forward to as we anticipated our move to Nepal was the food, and we have not been disappointed. Dahl bhaht (lentils and rice) is a staple, and it's usually combined with curried vegetables or other vegetable dish, and a flatbread. Dinner is always a delicious surprise, whipped up by Sara, our lovely Nepali cook. It's an understatement to say that we have been well-fed, as we're still working on the Nepali words for "If I eat any more, I'm going to burst". But since we're walking like crazy every day, we can actually eat pretty impressive amounts of food!

Here are a few pictures of Nepali food:

A not so appealing food sight. If you look closely, you can see what these goats will become.

Wow that food looks amazing! We'll show that goat picture to Rudy in case he acts up.

We love you and are praying for you.

Love, Dad and Mom
