Day Two

Well here we are in Haiti.  Forgot to set my clock back and ended up gettng up at 4:00 A.M. in the morning.  Couldn't figure out why nobody was coming down for breakfast.  Oh well live and learn.  Made pancakes and bacon for breakfast. The Haitian ladies make this really delicious dish of beans and rice.  They hammer the spices out in a pestle and mortar just like they have for centuries.  Really amazing to be able to actually see it being done.   Had this for lunch with  a seafood chowder.    They are really receptive to our ideas as well. We are going shopping in Port au Prince tomorrow.  Actually looking forward to the adventure.  Have to get back to the kitchen though, we are having fettucini alfredo with chicken for dinner, and bread pudding.  Talk to you all soon and try to keep cool.  God Bless
