Today was a down day where we got to rest. In orientation we discussed more on personalities and then types of ministries we could have in our cities. We were going to go shopping but we all looked so tired that Darrel decided we should go home and rest. Which it was so nice to get a nap because I have developed a sore throat. Yes to all the moms I have taken medicine! The boys were in charge of dinner tonight. They first brought out appetizers that included apples, carrots and turkey hearts. I just could not pass up the great opportunity, I mean how many times would I be offered turkey hearts? They are small and tasted just like the dark meat of a turkey. Now I did not eat the vein portions at the top but the bottom of the heart (ventricles) was quite meaty. The main meal was chicken, potatoes and a cabbage salad. For dessert they had made brownies. The rest of the evening was spent visiting with each other as our time in Kyiv (Ukrainian spelling) comes to an end.

  1. Ok, I am proud of you for trying all these new foods...and a little freaked out that you know so much about the anatomy of them!

  2. Rachel....how come I can never get you to try new foods at home??? Guess I just haven't offered the right thing. However, DO NOT expect turkey hearts when you get home! Do believe the zoologist side of you is showing. I am so proud of you for taking meds at the first sign of a sore throat - you make me proud. Girl, I can hardly wait to see what God has in store for you, Hannah and Erin when you get to Poltava. Love you, Mom
