Lazy Sunday AM

All-

Sundays here rock!

Walked Magnus, made good Rwandan coffee, and made a killer breakfast. Mangoes are now back (there was a rumor that they were not allowed in from Burundi? Not sure why?) I am now sitting outside, enjoying the view. This is part of my outdoor garden. Herb garden in circular plot, raspberries and strawberries behind it. The empty plot is an experiment: quinoa. Then a bunch of lettuce as well.


Here you see the banana trees, and a small bunch of parsley that is ever-growing. More lettuce int he back. My compost hole (8 feet x 8 feet) is behind the post.



My friends and I were talking last night over dinner that for some reason, this place brings out creativity. We are able to do things here that we just don't do back home. And it is not because we have more time, its, I don't know, just different. Gardening, building furniture out of pallets, etc. My friends Stacey and Jeff Dixson built a play structure that rivals anything you have ever seen in the US, complete with roof top deck for afternoon sunset view, and a mini climbing wall.

Here is part of my kitchen, complete with my first table from pallets:



Here is to adding some creativity in your lives!

Sunday Nziza!

Until next time...

Love life, Find meaning, Be happy,
