Kitchens, Kids and Kows






Ms Carolyn in the kitchen at the Matthew house.

Things are moving right along at New Day. The teachers are busy with assessments and I have been working at the store and practicing my Tonga. ;) 

We toured a local farm yesterday and talked to the owner about good farming practices in Zambia which are very different than America. There was a group of men listening to our discussion and they laughed out loud when I told them we milked cattle up to two months before they were due to calve. They dry their cattle off after the calves are weaned at six months. Looks like I have my work cut out for me. Blu has made a plan to purchase a couple of milk cows next week so I better learn fast. :)

Darbi posted pics of the Matthew house where we are staying. There is a link to her blog on this page if anyone is interested. (The Tidwells from A-Z)  Laurie Wilcox has updated her blog as well.
