Today’s post will be brief…new hats and food purchases.
Just so you know, we do NOT get snow in our area! The kids, and most of the adults, complain about being cold if the sun goes behind a cloud. If there’s a stiff breeze many will shiver and put on a sweater. So it isn’t uncommon to see parents wrapping up their babies in thick clothing then a blanket and a stocking hat or to see kids walking around with knit hats, sweaters, down jackets or even snow suits while I’m walking around in short sleeves or tank top! Always answering the question, “aren’t you cold?” with “nope, this is absolutely beautiful weather!” But since they feel cold we got all the kids a knit hat and most of them will wear them all day long with the sun blaring down…makes me sweat just looking at them!
A few days ago we stocked up the kitchen again, something we do once a month in bulk. It’s always fun to watch the kids’ eyes light up as if to say…yes, we get to continue eating! Ann has also been making a weekly menu and I’ve seen a couple of the kids staring at the menu, seeing when their favorite food will be served that week! This is just a small part of the shopping…the 90kg bag of rice and other large items were already loaded into the truck.
To get an idea of how much food C4KK goes through, you can check out an earlier blog entry. So there you have it, my brief blog post!
