Elizabeth and I were able to house sit for some friends in a western community - a wonderful and clean vacation from cleaning the apartment, complete with all sorts of western foods.
The family we house sat for even cooked us a Mexican dinner, with guacamole and everything. Incredible.
Eating our Mexican food leftovers, enjoying a glass of wine, and watching TV for the first time since we've been here (except it was all in Chinese. We quickly put a movie in...).
Complete with brownies: a rare, but precious commodity.
Madeleine, our present pancake chef, slept over for a night and in the morning, made delectable chocolate-banana-craisin-nut pancakes.
And they were delicious. Despite what Elizabeth's face may or may not convey.
Hello America.
(side note: Elizabeth had the week off of teaching for a Chinese holiday. To make up for the weekdays the country had off, everyone had to go to school/work the following Saturday and Sunday.... There are some things I will just never understand.)
