"Angola? There's an Angola?"

Whew!  We just got home from Ayden's school fundraiser, I volunteered to bake and sell items before the whole fam came down with a nasty head cold.  But, I managed to pull myself together and ended up having a blast.  Adam and Zo were still a little under the weather so Ayden and I decided to make it a date!

I got some great ideas via Pinterest and after combining a few of them I came with these little ditties!

 This blog originally started as a way to document our BIG country challenge.  But it has started to evolved into somewhat of an online scrapbook/journal.  I can't help but think of how amazing it will be years from now to look at what my little family was up to each week.  That being said, I want to share a little of our Thanksgiving in Prescott.  I dropped the ball in the picture department but we did have the BEST turkey ever thanks to Grandma Debbie plus, my mom and I totally scored some good stuff during our 7 hours of black Friday shopping!  Thank you Deb and Family, we are thankful for you!

On to Angola....This was a tough one, Angola must not be known for their cuisine because it was hard to find recipes.  We ended up choosing Arroz De Coco E Papaia (papaia/coconut rice) & Grilled Pawns w/ Raw Sauce, I also roasted a chicken in case it didn't turn out.
We learned that Angola's official name is "Angolish Empire of Flying Snakes" which has nothing to do with snakes and everything to do with the founding fathers recreational use of LSD....Seriously, look it up.

 Next week: Iceland!
