We spent quite a bit of time today going over menus.  Blink twice and the AIM Team will be here from our church in Tucson.  We will be spending a week in the village.  Meals are a challenge since we have no refrigeration.  But with a lot of creative ingenuity we managed to come up with seventeen meals plus breakfasts.  Breakfast is easy.  It's lunch and dinner that challenged us.  Part way through the week Doris will have to go to the market and buy more meat.  We are going to do some research to find out if she can get what we need in Sa'a or if she will have to go to Oballa instead.  One thing's for sure, she cannot get anything in Eyene itself.  We have no market.  Just two little stores that don't carry much of anything.  

We stumbled onto the idea of having Mama Regine make a meal for us.  We'll provide the money and she can buy the food and cook it.  I recommended that we eat baton de manioc once.  We need a taste of Cameroon.  And when we come back into the city we will have a wonderful American meal.  Meat and mashed potatoes with gravy.  How American is that!  We will eat our last meal at a restaurant in Yaounde. All in all, I think it's going to turn out well.
