A week of great meals!

This past week we were blessed with some very good meals (a lot different from tne ones we have been cooking ourselves or the Ramen I have been eating :). We were invited to dinner 4 nights this week. On Tues., our friend Ben cooked spaghetti bolonaise (not sure if I spelled the right but basically spaghetti with meat sauce). It was delicious. We also had salad and garlic bread.
On Wed., we were invited to our supervisor's house for dinner and he and his wife cooked a great meal that included fish and pork kabobs, beef fried rice, plantains, sweet potatoes and regular potatoes and a spinach soup. We were in heaven! I will post some pictures of the meals soon so that you can see what I am talking about.
Then on Friday, we were invited to a barbeque for Ben's birthday. There were hamburgers, sausage, steaks and all kinds of good stuff. Ben is a big fan of Kenyan beef which we have heard is the 2nd best beef in the world. I think I would have to attest to that because the hamburger that I ate tasted like steak!
On Sat., we were invited to have dinner at the home of the Deputy Secretary General of the East African Community, Madame Karasu. This was a big time dinner. Madame Karasu is from Uganda and used be a member of the Ugandan Parliament. She is now working for the EAC and it was an honor to be invited to her house. She was very hospitable and down to earth despite her status within the East AFrican Community. There we had another feast of meat, potatoes, salad, dessert and lots of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). Our host made sure that everyone was satisfied and had plenty to drink.
On Sunday, we celebrated Eunice's birthday (Happy Birthday Eunice!) at the Impala Hotel with chinese food, and pizza. We realized that we did not order enough food and ended up adding a pizza on at the end of our meal!
So as you can see, I am eating well here, atleast for this past week. Even when I just eat beans and rice (or refugee beans and we have been told they are called) it is still a very good meal and it is very cheap. We are working on perfecting our cooking skills but if we keep getting invited to dinner, that may make us less apt to practice. Tonight the power will be out so plan B is to have left overs from lunch that we can warm up quickly for dinner.
