Injera

Injera is a pancake-like bread eaten at most meals by Ethiopians.  It is made of teff flour, which apparently you can purchase at Wegman's.  It is spongy, sour, and really delicious.  Mike and I ate at our local Ethiopian restaurant on Saturday night - it was delicious!  We figure that M. will miss the injera of her homeland, and, though I haven't tried, I have heard that cooking it is difficult.  We asked the gentleman at the restaurant whether they sell 'just injera' - turns out, they DO!  Eight injera for $7.00 if they are available (we need to call ahead).  Hooray!  At least there will be something she can eat.

First post

So I have finally gotten around to creating a blog. I hope to be able to document our adoption journey and to share our experiences with family and friends far away. Course, don't know how realistic that is, given it's taken me about 2 hours to type the thirty-seven or so words you see here! It's a start.
