Road to Indonesia--My Birthday

 Today is my 68th birthday. Always interesting how the day is spent where ever I am in the world. I slept in and then took a long nap.  Waited for my kidney beans to finish cooking for chili in my crock pot and then realized that I had cooked them on "warm" for 6 hours. Still waiting now for them to be done. Made myself a birthday cake.  Realized that we were out of bread and no way to make it to a store, so late in the day made bread. (Love, love, love my Kitchaid mixer with dough hooks, etc. )  Took them out of the oven just in time to go to friends' house for apple pie and to play games. Also got some bananas (for Rick) and a baggy full of taco seasoning as a gift as I was almost out.  Also a card that all the pertinent data is covered with applicable sticky notes.....so that I can recycle the card!!! What a wonderful missionary idea. One never has enough English cards and if you share it within the mission community, everyone understands what you are doing. I have heard from both girls, but of course it was the night before my birthday for them. Waiting now to hear from the boys. Thus endeth my birthday in Indonesia.
