Day Three

Got a great sleep last night.  We went shopping today to the equivalent of a Sysco or Gordon Foods.  It's called a Cordon Bleu,  The problem was that they didn't have a lot of the things that we needed and you couldn't see a price list or the products.  There is a shortage of fresh produce and the stuff that there is is possibly contaminated.  We served pasta again for lunch and with a tomato sauce and boneless stuffed chicken legs with garlic bread. of course there was the beans and rice that the Hatian girls Jolene and Luna cook up as well.  I am getting quite fond of this dish.   Ended up having about 35 instead of the ususal 20 or so.  Its really hard estimating how much to cook.  You don't want to run out but on the other hand you don't want to over cook the supplies.  The ride through Port au Prince was the same as it was coming from the airport.  The only difference was we had a thunderstorm to contend with.  The streets are probably the most dangerous in the world.  They use a lot of breadfruit here.  They fry it up so it looks like a slice of fried potato but it has the consistency of a yam.  Got back at 10 minutes to 5 and had supper ready at 6.  Monte Cristo sandwiches, Beef vegetable soup and chocolate cake.  Not the best dinner in the world but it worked.

Oh well, I am exhausted.  Hopefully will get a blog in tomorrow.
