Fete chez nous

One of the Austrian women working in the labo de recherches is leaving soon, so the peds nurses decided to throw a going away party / welcome to visiting parents party last night. Only complication -- it was at our house! (they informed us of this monday morning =)

Despite the short notice, though, we had an absolutely fabulous African feast, including crocodile, every possible permutation of the manioc plant, tarot, yams, chicken, beef, poisson au chocolat (yes, fish in chocolate sauce!!), cucumbers stuffed with some sort of fish creation, fresh pineapples out the wazoo, and lots of dancing to african music. It was fantastic.

Here's a picture of me with some of the ladies who cooked.
