Tonight is my four week anniversary here. Though honestly, it feels like I've been here a lot longer than that. I don't mean that in a good or bad way, it's just odd to think that I've only been here 4 weeks.
In honor of the anniversary, I'm going to try to bake peanut butter cookies. (I would have tried for chocolate chip, but alas, there are no chocolate chips for baking to be found in Dar.) And even the peanut butter cookies may be (very) questionable since I don't have any brown sugar, nor do I have a mixer. So I imagine that it's really going to be the thought that counts.
Also in honor of my four week annivesary, the weather gods decided to make today the hottest day here. Oh, it was pretty bad. Thankfully it's now back to being bearable (aka, hot but i don't want to kill anyone). But it's still pretty warm.
Two corrections on previous posts: the spelling of Kipapeo is really Kipepeo, which means butterfly in Kiswahili. And the corn-meal food eaten here is called ugali, not upagi.

So how did the experiment go?
Did they actually taste like cookies? Or in that heat they came out something totally different?
I can send you a big box of Mrs. Fields Cookies Ummmmmmmm cookies.
Take care and keep hydrated.
