I have just spent the Christmas holiday with my friend Sarah at her convent. The Ugandan Catholic Christmas with three nuns is quite an experience. I would have posted some pictures today, but due to the holiday season I am unable to travel to my home because the taxis will not be going to Kampala until Tuesday. So it may come as bad news, but I'm sure not surprising considering all the issues I've had with previous posts, that you will have to wait yet again to see new pictures.
Hope all of you enjoyed Christmas Day and everyone is doing well. I know my Christmas season involved eating way, way too much food. I have come to the conclusion that cooking my own food also has the benefit of not wanting to prepare much and after all the work required to cook it, what I end up eating I enjoy thoroughly and don't even consider more...except maybe the odd piece of fruit. What I want is a banana though and for some reason I have not been able to find them and when I do, I miss the chance to buy them. When I reach home I plan to get one or five.
I did learn how to make yogurt during this trip and provided some baking tips to Sarah. We did make three delicious cakes that were devoured Christmas Day.
God has His plans for everything that happens, so I thank Him for all the small things and the big, especially giving up everything for us here on earth. After all, He is the reason for Christmas.
Until Next Time.
