Recipe for an interesting morning:
Several kg of tomatoes
Similar amounts of mince, onions, spaghetti and pepper
5 teenagers who aren't really sure what they're doing
Prepare the above, place in a pre-prepared school kitchen, and come back every 10 minutes to make sure no-ones dead yet, and pray they manage to turn out a decent lunch for the school. (Incidentally, this wasn't that hard - we were only cooking for about 40, and so hugely overestimated on the amount of spaghetti needed).
Recipe for a restful afternoon
1 good book
Arrangements for everyone else to be too tired to do anything, or out at the Jireh orphanage shovelling sand & gravel from one end of the garden to another.
For an after dinner activity...
Take about 55 Thai kids (none of whom speak English) to the local pool, and try to ensure that they all behave (try it - I dare you). Follow with taking the same 55 kids home and feeding with massive amounts of ice cream and sprinkles. A trip to the local Tescos (with 14 people in a car designed for 8) at 10 o'clock at night is also found to aid digestion.
And voila, you have a blog for yesterday.
See you all in a week!
