Jono plays Mum
I feel like I've turned into chief cook and bottle washer. Hosting and looking after people. I guess it is one of the best ways I can serve here while I'm still working on the language.
Saturday I cooked 'Jono Borscht'. This is my style of a soup that is an entire meal. The guys go back for seconds so it can't be too bad. That was cooking for just 5 hungry men. We also go thru bread at a rate of knots. After the washing up I had a 2-3 hours of work cleaning the mud off the mud off the steps down the side of the house before it was time to cook tea.
Sunday we had a guest and had my tried and trusted Spaghetti Bolognaise with a very nice salad made by chief salad maker Rhani Wade. Once again guess who did the washing up? In fact I've learned that you don't need to complain about washing up, it's not so bad if you do it with the attitude of "I'm serving the Lord by serving others". Thanks Gran for the lesson!
And now we have plenty of milk because I'm buying it from the neighbours but we have run out of breakfast cereal and I can't seem to find any here in town so will have to wait for my next trip to Kiev. Also the bread is out and they expect "Mum" to buy it for them. I guess that will be this afternoon's job.
Tomorrow we go to Conference for 4 days. Mum's time off, yep, I can now relate to the Mum's who look forward to staying somewhere where the meals are cooked and the washing up done for them.
Happy Mother's Day everyone
