We bought and ate some of the maize off of one of the many stands like this around town. They also were cooking casava. The roasted maize was a cross between unsweet corn on the cob and popcorn!

This is a coffee shop/restaurant/Internet Cafe in town, and it’s been a fun place to get away from stressors of teaching for a bit! The coffee is AMAZING too! I might be bringing some home to sell over Christmas…in case you want some 😉

Here’s my delicious mocha from Union. Seriously so good! But I’ve learned that hot coffee in midday is not the greatest in the Tanzanian sun! I go for their espresso milkshakes now 🙂

The school cooks make snack (some sort of porridge and a fruit/vegetable) and lunch for us every school day. Most of the lunch meals are Tanzanian staples- and I’ve really enjoyed getting to try so many different things! I snapped this picture one day when we had beans (a very consistent item on the menu) and chipoti- a tortilla-like food that is made with a lot more oil than regular tortillas. It’s pretty good, but will fill you up fast!

God’s creation never ceases to amaze me!
TGIF! I cannot believe I’ve been here for four weeks already! It’s been a whirlwind of a week, and I’m so looking forward to the weekend!
Much Love, Allie
