Christmas Performance #2!

To give the staff a break, we made everyone an American breakfast of scrambled eggs, hash browns and pancakes!
From Dec '08


It was actually really funny to see the kids’ reactions. Many looked puzzled and poked at their pancake trying to figure out what it was. But they seemed to love it, although we’re not sure if it was the pancake they loved or smothering it in syrup.

This evening we got the chance to celebrate another Christmas service put on for the local “B” population. We’re just now figuring out that here in Thailand, Christmas is celebrated all throughout December (and sometimes January). So as Americans are putting away the decorations and songs, the Thai are just beginning. The church was completely full, and there were even people peering in from the windows to see what was going on. We aren't sure if it was packed because of another raffle??

After the service, they had a big Christmas dinner for all of the participants, complete with chicken liver soup! We thought it most closely resembled "Fancy Feast" or "Meow Mix". Check out Mike's video remake of "Meow Mix"!

  1. Mmmmm...That breakfast looks good Lori! I must say that I like syrup way better than pancakes. Have you ever seen Elf? I am sure you have. He puts syrup on everything. Ha!
