Short note - Food

A comment was made about a number of my blogs mentioned a lot about the food. Well that is because the food is very good here in Romania. But manly it is because the Romanian people are so loving to us, they set out a Thanksgiving feast that could feed 20 some people for the 7 of us. For example, yesterday, Tuesday a meal was brought to the church for us. Now grant it, it was our lunch and dinner but there was chicken cooked in a frosted flake batter. There was bar-b-qued pork, big bowl of rice, a bowl of pasta salad, this lasagna type dish, hotdogs rapped in dough (similar to pigs in a blanket) & a big bowl of salad (basically coleslaw). Then to top off this meal, there were two deserts. One was a stuffed apple, where the apple top was sliced off then inside taken out, mixed with raisins and cinnamon then put back in the cored out apple and baked. The second dessert was an oatmeal crust with apples on top, then I think vanilla pudding layered over the apples and then a thick layer of whip cream. Again there was some much of this it feed the 9 of us (our team of 7 plus Lavinia and Doran (one of the teens helping us)) for lunch and it feed the 16 of us (our team of 7, Marius & Tabita, Lavinia and 6 teen helpers) and still there was food left.

I just felt I needed to explain a little more in detail why I mention the food many times in my blogs. And Ruth has pictures of all the meals if you need a visual.
