good samaritan cookin'

tonight we spent the evening at the Good Samaritan girls home for two reasons.

#1 it was the monthly birthday celebration for the kids. This month was Kylie, Nadia, and Gamaelle. The boys come, the girls hang decorations, a talent show/church service precedes the food we will share for the evening...which leads to

#2 the older girls have had cooking class with Margarette 1x/week for about 6 weeks now. Today was the big exam and they needed judges!:)

Group 1: macaroni and cheese made by Resinette, Stephanie, Stephanie, and Phara! Yum

Group 2: fried chicken, national haitian rice and beans, fried bananas made by Phaline, Kevencia, Wilmine, Carme-Suze, and Marie-Josee (the new caregiver for the younger girls)! Yum



Group 3: CAKE made by Daphney, Dania, Judith, and Lovely! Yum

Group 4: Fish, Lam (a vegetable similar to potatoes), Yams, lettuce, tomato, avocado made by Martine, Manoucheka, and Marie-Ange! Yum (I don't eat fish although Jeff said it was amazing)

And the winner is...Group 3 with their cake!

we are so proud of these girls, they were all fantastic and hats off to Margarette for all she is teaching them!
