Might as well write while I wait for my pictures to upload on Facebook. Today was pretty uneventful. We were supposed to have Spanish for an hour and a half and then do a health lecture on pregnancy policy. They ended up cutting the health charla and we had Spanish all morning! It was alright. I think everyone was interested to see what they had to say about pregnancy, lol
We watched a movie for the 1st 1.5 hours called a tu espalda, kinda weird movie but showed the reality of Quito and prostitution.. Then was lunch, really good today. Cheesy noodle soup and then veggies, meat and potatoes for plato fuerte, then little cookies for dessert. Such a deal for only $2. The rest of the afternoon was community banks and huertos. The two other groups (TEFL and youth & families) hadn’t started gardens yet. So we as a health group just watered and weeded our gardens. We then learned about organic weed killing. What we did was pureed ajo (garlic), cebolla (onion) and aji (type of pepper). That is then mixed with water, so simple…we’ll see if it works-take note my gardening parents ;).
Our cooking group met to make a list for tomorrow, we will be making Sacocha- a traditional soup. No on has ever actually made it but we have pretty good directions. Cara and I went shopping after class.
Toodles!
