Supper


Well, Jen will be amazed but I cooked dinner today. One word of wisdom for future travelers to the developing world (that is the politically correct way to say Third World), don't try to save money on meat.

I was doing some education on comparison shopping with Cody, showing him how much we can save with just comparing costs. So we pretty much bought all generic items. You see in our family if spending money was the fire, I am the water and all other members of our family are gasoline. Anyway I talked Cody into buying the cheaper meat "Estofada". I didn't know what that meant but have found out it means stewed meat.

It tasted strangely similar to the horse meat that they served at the medievil festival in Motta where we lived in Italy. Anyway by the end of the meal Cody wasn't feeling to good. It could have been my cooking...but I'm going to blame the meat.
