- forget writing to husband and updating blogs, drop everything, because power is ON and we can cook!
- the idea is pizza…yes yes yes
- open box
- read directions
- so far so good
- mix the dough
- welcome the guest who just entered the kitchen and is probably horrified to see a mzungu cooking!
- carry on with dough
- let dough rise while heating oven
- decide it would be nice to have more vegetables on the pizza than the mix provides
- wait while Pascal runs to the market for onion and green pepper
- chop these when they arrive and add other veggies we could find (no cassava leaves, please)
- put into a pan to heat them
- wait for the slow element to heat up
- NOOOOO!…..POWER OUT! possibly until tomorrow!!!!!
- write to your husband?!
- throw out everything?
- frustartaion.....resignation
= Oh well
- other than this I’m all right
power on again in an hour....
- finish cooking add ons and...
- NO....not again....yup! It's out!
- put it in the oven even if it sits there for 2 days!
- go to sleep for a few hours
- power on again before midnight
- pizza ready in 2014!!!
- aahhhh......good......somethings taste even better with anticipation!
You may feel free to use this recipe any time you wish! Enjoy!
The -35 C temperature and then lots of snow on top of that in central Canada has some challenges but if we had the power situation of DRC we could not live in this country. A good thought for those of us who are not naturally grateful! It is better to enjoy what God has given us rather than to complain about not having the latest phone app, car, house, clothes, TV. Do we really need a better .........?? Are not; job, vehicle, house, church, store, fuel, heat, and food enough?
