Expensive Turkeys


We eat lots of chicken – fried, boiled, baked, etc.  So we thought it would be nice to try and find a turkey for Thanksgiving.  Yesterday in ShopRite, a big grocery store in Lusaka, the price for a turkey that was the size of a large chicken was about $31.00.  We decided we will have another day of chicken!

Kayla Cook is here.  She is a nurse and a good cook.  So she has offered to cook our dinner tomorrow.  I think she also is aware that it is not a holiday in Zambia and we will be working as usual.  In the afternoon at our school we will be assessing the students who have applied to come to our school for the next school year beginning in January.  We just want to see where the children are in the learning journey. 

So while working I will be looking forward to sweet potatoes, stuffing, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, and chicken!
