Boiled Rats




BOILED RATS IN MALAWI

Yes they boil rats and sell them.

I saw this image on the 2009 Photos of the Year and it reminded me of the one that the Alex & Andre VanWoerden had on their website from last year. Yes apparently they do boil rats and people eat them. Crazy can't believe it. So I told Alex not to worry about food for me when we come at the end of March because I would be good with leaves.

Malawi Bound

Well for 7 months now we've been collecting bottles and clothes and saving money for our missions trip to Malawi, Africa. I've literally become the bag lady. I've been know to pull cans out of the garbage and comb the woods at campgrounds for cans or bottles. Syd and Eli have become very quick at sorting at the local bottle depot. We've all got it down to a science now.

We are on the home stretch and have sorted out details of what we will be doing and where.

Orphan care centres and schools in Zomba, Malawi that is our mission and destination with the VanWoerdens.
