Feeding the Family



I just love these photos that the children have taken,  Don't you?!  In Mazabuka, most families cook on an open fire.  You can see Jordan in the top two photos getting the fire going for the meal.  I love the faces he is making in these photos.  What a character!! 
Meal time is a communal and social event.  If you look at the photo at the bottom, you will see a typical family sharing a meal together.  They are eating in the same hut they did the cooking in, and are sharing a plate of nshima.  These are the kinds of meals American families should be having together!  Most American families do not sit down to eat together but pick up a meal on the go- constantly running from place to place.  Imagine all that could be said and shared if we all sat down to share a meal together in a one room hut.  Love- all love =)
