No Lights, No Food

Poor little oh me, absolutely positively famished and not exactly friendly with the dark, tonight is a very sad night.  The electricity has been out all day and of course no electricity means no cooking.  I have a plug-in stove and a kerosene stove, however since I don't quite know how to work the kerosene stove, and after an hour of trying to figure it out, I gave up and am going to have to pray extra hard tonight that I don't starve to death in my sleep.  I can eat another PB n J, however that thought isn't appealing to me too much.  I'm sitting here trying to decide what in my house can be eaten cold and all I am coming up with is snack foods.  I have bananas, chips, bread, peanut butter, jelly, tuna, and a small box of snack foods from America.  Decisions, decisions...which of the previous will I have for dinner??  My vote is for none of the above, but since I have to eat something, I think I'll try out my very first peanut butter and banana sandwich.  I've heard my whole life that they are really good...and I can't think of a better time to test it out for myself!

Lord please, please, let the lights come back on tomorrow...a sista's gotta eat!  And anyone who knows me knows that I DO NOT skip meals...next to my mom and sister, food is practically my best friend! :)

Love and Peace Corps,
