A Taste of Africa

There must have been a mix up. After all, we’ve had Ethiopian food before. Granted that was in a part of Nashville known as ‘next-to-Mexico’, but most of what we ordered from Addis looked familiar. If it please the court, we submit Exhibit A.

When Ade and Mel popped in for an evening catch up, we ordered in. Some of what we ordered did not scare us or stink us out.

However, we must submit to evidence the following specimen:

To the best of our understanding, the fish was prepared when we placed our order. We cannot prove that the fish was not found under the couch, leftover from last year, but the photo was most certainly taken upon receipt of the takeaway order.

It did not look more appetizing on a platter from Auntie Sarah’s mum.

Those eyes. They follow you everywhere.

My colleague Sian (who is slowly warming up to the idea of sharing her feelings after my great lengths of pleading and flailing about) is teaching me loads of new things on a daily basis. She knows about Gannets, how to make a proper cup of tea, and about remote places in China – just to name a few quite important things… Pretty remarkable, right?

Well, Sian has also taught me about these Welsh made waffles.

These waffles are sort of like biscuits (and by ‘biscuits’ I mean ‘cookies’, of course) – but there are two stuck together with caramel. They aren’t quite crunchy or chewy. And apparently it is best to sit one to warm on your freshly poured cup of tea before eating.

For the win.
