Kumasi, Ghana

Day Three.

Drove from Lake Bosumtwi to Kumasi, Ghana today. I'm in cook group 2, which means I got to help buy some food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Wedesday.

Breakfast: Eggs, bread, cereal...

Lunch: Sandwiches. Pick what you want of the wonderful ingredients of tuna, corned beef, cheese, tomatoes, cucumber, etc.

Dinner: Stir fry with unknown ingredients. We got a bunch of random veggies as well as three frozen chickens (~1300g). Maybe after we use the whole bin of spices it will taste good. Eggs to be added too?

The next few days look like we're headed north, doing about 250km/day. Tomorrow there are some waterfalls, which sounds great. It'll probably be one of the nicer showers over the next week.


Anyone have any good recipes for simple baked goods? Maybe I'll try to make some cookies one evening, but we might not use the ovens because it is quite hot. In the daytime somewhere in the 90s, instant sweating once you get in the sun. Last night the low I think was somewhere around 80.

Time is up, next post will likely be from Burkina Faso!

so surprised that you can post, but happy too. How can I resist a request? I'll send an email with some cooking suggestions, but enjoy the African experience in food too! What's new?
