Mexipino Night

It's been a very busy month, with not much to blog about. Sleep (when i'm fortunate), work, eat, work, and repeat. That sums it up. But it's been good. It's busy at FHR and there's always interesting people that, although often exasperating in the moment, make for a good laugh afterwards. It's busy at the church too as another season of Tuesday night outreach gets underway and as we prepare for 3 missions trips within the next 3 months. I'm loving it.

My schedule doesn't allow for an extensive social calendar, but Thursday night I was able to have three of my favourite young ladies to my place for dinner and it was heaps of fun.

The menu was a bit of a Mexican/Filipino theme. We had nacho dip as an appetizer. The main course consisted of Pancit (a noodle dish with beans, carrots, garlic, chicken, and soya sauce) and Lumpia (kinda like a spring roll, but different). Making these dishes made think of Ruth with much fondness.

So here they are learning how to wrap Lumpia. They were kinda weirded out by the use of egg whites as an adhesive.








































In the end, some of the Lumpia filling was overcooked, but otherwise it seemed to turn out. For dessert, we returned to Mexican with a banana/marshmallow/chocolate enchilada-type structure. For some reason, most of the pictures were devoted to dessert.
