Getting Cultured

As part of this journey, we've been encouraged, and also just feel inclined, to study the culture of Ethiopia to be better parents. For Christmas I thought it would be fun to add some new music to our iTunes library so I bought these CDs for Dave. The best part is that as we listened to the music, Trenton was dancing all around. He loved it.

Now I just need to get used to the food. It's time to find an Ethiopian restaurant nearby. That thought doesn't conjure up good memories though. I can remember back in high school, traveling out to D.C. with a group of students for Close Up and we actually visited an Ethiopian restaurant for lunch one day--didn't sit well with me.:) Dave will say that was just me and my chicken strips and fries mentality. I hope that's the case. He keeps saying we'll do Ethiopian for my birthday dinner.
