This is one of my new favorite meals! We got it all the time at Hannah and Freddy's! It is potato and bean stew, chapati and cabbage and carrots! You eat mostly with your hands and it gets a little messy, but it is so delicious! 
On our last night, we asked Hannah to make us our favorite dinner! She did and she taught me how to make chapati! She is such a great cook, hopefully I absorbed her chapati-powers! We had a lot of fun in the kitchen...but she put me to work! She cooks most of the food over an open flame (says it tastes better that way) and makes her own juices and sauces!
This is just a little friend we found one night, and it happened to be a night without power! These guys look even creepier in the light of a lantern...yuck! Eric was such a stud and killed it! We also were lucky enough to find a cockroach that night too!!! We are getting so brave.
Eric just washing his clothes! We took forever to do our laundry, but it was satisfying! Our fingers got so raw washing all of our stuff! The big concrete thing he is sitting on is where they collect all the rainwater! We used the rainwater to wash and shower with!
Our neighborhood chameleon!!! Woah! I've never seen one of these up-close. It hissed at Eric a couple of times...but he was just a good guy!
This is what the majority of the houses we see in Moshi look like. We are very lucky to live in such a nice place! Only 40% of the people in Tanzania have electricity and most have dirt floors. Makes you look at all our blessings a little differently!
The most amazing family! We will miss them so much! Hannah and Freddy and two of their kids, Mary and Michael! We had so much fun getting to know them and feel blessed to be welcomed into their lives! We will miss Moshi, but we know we want to go back!...Katie
