Friday-Saturday, during which nothing really exciting happens

Friday was pretty relaxed, as usual. Nothing terribly exciting. Saturday was good. We had our own Sabbath school, and joined everyone for church (Dr. Gemechu translated the key points). Potluck was awesome, as usual. While they did not have any bananas—a key disappointment—they did have the potato and carrot dish and a cabbage and carrot dish that was delicious. S’ike is going to teach us to make injera sometime this week. Pathfinders was a bit boring, considering that the first part is entirely in Amharic, but we continued the Joseph movie we started last week. After lunch, we went to tell Dr. Gemechu that we FINALLY got a hold of Anisha’s uncle’s ex-coworker, who is bringing us stuff from Anisha’s aunt. She was supposed to get in on Sunday, but due to some problems with her flights (failed engine over the ocean and such…) she only just arrived at midnight Friday (Thursday night/Friday day). We are meeting her at nine tomorrow, then going grocery shopping. Dr. Gemechu gave us a bunch of movies (A Friend of the Family movies?) that we are excited to watch. Tonight we are watching “Come Away Home,” which is about a girl who tries to escape a summer with her “elderly and very out-of-date grandfather.” Funfun. Even though Saturday nights are supposed to be game nights, we thought we would make an exception.
