Scratch Cooking Week

So LAST week, we had some classes designed to teach us how to cook meals from scratch.  When you're in a remote tribe, you usually don't have the luxury of fresh ingredients, prepared items or electricity for different appliances.  So, all this week, we've been cooking from scratch, with the kids helping.

Our days start like any other, with oatmeal.  We've done this for years, and this week is no different.

Monday for lunch was one of my favorites, Lentils dal over rice.


For dinner, Simon chose beef/potato pie, and he helped make it.





Then, yesterday, Eli helped me make banana bread from scratch, which I've done many times.  However, I've never done it without the aid of an electric mixer.  But we both managed to get it all mixed...


...And out came two lovely loaves.
