Sunday Lunch

It's been a really nice weekend so far. We went to a social gathering hosted by the PTA on Friday evening. It was wonderful to meet so many people from different countries. Many of them are teachers at the school, so it is fun knowing that Sam will draw from so much cultural diversity.

We had dinner at a neighbors yesterday, which was wonderful because our grill has not arrived, and she grilled meat and veggies. I am so grateful for the people who have already opened their homes (and cars since we don't have one) to us.

Today, we are having some special guests from the states come for dinner. It will be our first time to meet, but exciting to be able to host some visitors. Since cooking here is always from scratch, mainly due to lack of prefab food options, I spent a few hours preparing and cleaning up. We decided to eat lunch out at a new local restaurant. We all got different dishes than we actually ordered, but it was wonderful anyway. It's an open patio type dining, and this was our view! I almost felt guilty eating my beef samosas!
