manger

alkamisa and i just returned from lunch at a nigerienne home.. we went to saratu's - a woman who works with the US embassy. she is 7 months pregnant with twins, has already got i think 4 children, and lives well in niamey. all i want to say on this post is that i foresee gaining more weight in the desert than losing! in reality it is extremely sad how much we americans are used to eating in comparison to the rest of the world. it's silly trying to exercise off the excess when everybody here is undernourished - but we are all being fed such delicious foods.. so don't judge when i return from africa a few pounds heavier. it's unexpected, and the man on airfrance was completely wrong, but at this rate, it's likely to happen. oh yeah, it's very hot today
