What I learned in Quebrachitos

1. Cracking 120 eggs takes longer than it took for the chicken to lay them.
2. Cooking 120 eggs in one pot can be used as a training technique for the arms of body-builders.
3. Beans and sour cream go with everything.
4. Tortillas serve as silverware for 5-year-olds.
5. One single hot dog can be sliced into 176 pieces.
6. Lastly, and maybe most importantly, I look good in an apron and chef's hat--just ask Jordan :)

Melissa and I have found three wonderful women to help us start the feeding center in Mololoa, and we wanted to receive training for all of us. We were able to get in contact with a woman who runs three feeding centers here in Tegucigalpa; she has been extremely helpful and simply a blessing from God. She allowed us to volunteer at one of the centers not far from Mololoa. I have loved every minute of it. My favorite part was when the ladies were discussing the differences between American food and Honduran food. After I mentioned some of the fruits and vegetables located in Honduras that I have never seen in the US, one of the ladies asked (while I was cracking the 120 eggs) if we had eggs in TN. So, I don't know who learned the most--me or the Hondurans. However, we all benefited, and I am pleased to announce that the feeding center in Mololoa should be opening in less than two weeks. Please keep EVERYONE in your prayers.
