Now that the kitchen is almost complete (cupboards and drawers are being fixed as we speak) it was time to stock it. We worked with our friend in Tala, Sumil at Sunny Lucky, to get bulk items and he always gives us the best price.
The kitchen is now stocked for about a month…that, of course, doesn’t include the daily needs of fresh items like garlic, ginger, potatoes, etc. But as we get the crop rotation going in the shamba they won’t need to buy sukuma, cabbage, tomatoes, spinach and soon bananas.

Bags of beans, sugar, flour and maize
Milk, tea, spaghetti, flour, salt, soy pieces and green grams
Haul it all in!
Jacinta and Doris arrange the dishes
I brought magnetic letters recently and this is what the kids have done:
They also have enough clothes washing soap, bathing soap, toothpaste, valon (a lotion they use on their skin) and shoe polish to last the month. Thank you Lord for the providence of a month’s supply of food and non-food items for the kids here at C4KK. It looks great looking into the full cupboards!
