Ikotos family and home life




3.)Here is Wanni and the baby (Innocent Malek Solomon). Here Wanni is holding the baby on his back with a baby carrier. THis is not normal, but we just did it for laughs.
1.) Ajiba, John, and baby.
2.) Voila the kitchen!

The picture from the blog that has the pretty mountains in the background is of the living room. It the same place then, that we had the birthday party. My hut is off to the left of that one. I will send that next time. Uploading pictures takes about a half and hour or so to put a few pictures on here. I will do it Berra, berra (slowly, slowly).

Also, I thought I'd add that I'm on an all carb diet- sorry Atkins. For breakfast Chapatis (like a pancake/pita), for lunch rice or chaptis with beans and sometimes slimy okra, and then for dinner rice and beans or a type of mashed potatoes (but corn flour) that tastes like eating dirt (called Asiita), mixed with beans or some kind of slimy green. For now, Peanuts and peanutbutter is also on the menu. Peanut are called Fuul or g-nut (ground nut) and peanut butter is called Ka'morte. It is good with honey on a chapati, but is rough on the stomach b/c I eat it uncooked and the ka'morte is ground and mashed in the same place the chickens run around. Well, that's all for now!

Hey, what's this about 'slimy' okra! Maybe it's the southern region? Thanks for keeping us posted on what you're doing and how things are going. The pictures are great!!! Thanks for taking the time to upload them to share with us. We miss you and are keeping you in our prayers.
