New Creations

When we came to Mongolia we knew that we would experience and eat many new things. We were expecting a few familiar things as well. Turns out that we have seen and eaten a lot of familiar things, including pizza. You can not imagine how thrilled we were about that! Jennifer, being the masterful cook that she is, decided to make a pizza of her own for dinner a few days ago. I, having eaten her pizza before, was very excited about this idea. Our thoughts drifted to the toppings. What should we pile onto this masterful creation?

Remember my first sentence?
Feast your eyes on Jennifer's new creation which we have dubbed The Mongolian Steppe. Feel free to drool a little. It turns out that many of the things we are used to take on a different spin living in another country. The toppings on this bad boy included horse meat (yes, we do eat Trigger), onions, mushrooms, and cilantro. The thing was quite delicious!! However, I doubt many of you have ever considered horse meat on a pizza. We have had to adjust to many things, but this place is our home. We are able to make it feel that way by the things we do and make even though those things may be done differently. Different is not bad but beautiful. We are thankful for what we have and what has been provided to us.

I challenge all of you reading this to remember us and lift us up to the Father every time you eat pizza.
We are thankful for all of your support and need it every day!
