show and tell and eat

show and tell is sort of hit or miss these days. some of the students go all out, get really creative. others try to show and tell their wrist watch.

a couple weeks back, one enterprising student made me lunch:



it probably doesn't look so appetizing. but, i swear, this is good stuff. it's called gorasa. or at the pancake-y bread soaked in the meat and tomato sauce is called gorasa.

apparently, this isn't a one-time deal, either. last week the same student brought me fish and promised there would be more to come this thursday. she feels bad, she said, that i'm all alone in sudan with no mother to cook for me.

i didn't argue.
