Eating

So I know many of you, all around the world are wondering what I eat here in Mozambique.  Naturally that is pretty much the very first thing that my mother, “C” asks every time we talk.  Come to think of it…it doesn’t matter where I am, New York, Mozambique or Chicago, C is always worried about what I am eating and how much I am eating.  I guess that is one of the many important jobs of a mother- make sure her child is eating! So far I am still a vegetarian! WhoooHOOO! Although I do eat fish.

There are 3 meals a day, plus 2 lunches (which are snacks, built into the day).  So I am always eating…don’t worry mom! The following is what I eat almost everyday: bread, coffee, peanut butter, rice, oranges, bananas, cookies, rice, water, various vegetables, rice, eggs, potatoes, and more rice.  My host mother is also very concerned about my eating….she is always wanting me to eat more…just like C.
