Market!

I love the market! Max and Davona took me there today. For approximately $3 USD, I bought a small watermelon, 3 lg. tomatoes, green beans, nearly a dozen small oranges, 4 small peppers, a kilo (about 2.2 lb) of brown beans, about 8 small potatoes, half a dozen good-sized carrots, and 4 small onions. Fresh food is cheap! The first thing I bought was tomatoes. Max asked how much a pile of 3 was, and the lady responded $200 TSH, which is 15 cents! I was taken aback, and very excited that I'll be able to eat inexpensively! Packaged goods really rack up the bill, though.

I'm very excited about cooking from scratch! I have all those veggies, rice, and flour, plus a bunch of spices my mom sent over with me. This will be an adventure!
