The Cook Out


August 20, 2012

we shopped at the market in Poblacion our neighboring barangay
This week our training included learning to cook Filipino food for ourselves. We were given an allotment of money and taken to a market to shop for the food.

 We didn’t realize we would be cooking over a fire. Kim’s host family let us use their beach picnic site where we built cooking fires and prepared the food.

It was a great site




JoJo and Zak shooting palm fronds at each other
 The weather cooperated and turned out to be one of the nicest days we’ve had. My adobo manoke (chicken) turned out great. I had good teachers, Litang and Olive.
