I have an obsession with chickens. In a lot of ways. And its a new obsession, mas o menos.
First things first, I love to eat chicken. I have never been happier that religion exists in the world than now because we don't eat red meat on Wednesdays and Fridays now. And considering every single meal we have some weirdly chewy boney not appetizing at all piece of cow I am stoked to have two days free of this. The more chicken the better.
Also, besides the fact that they are quite possibly the most annoying animals in the world I kind of want one or many in my site. I think its so cool that they use a little ladder to sleep in trees bunk bed style and that they lay their eggs wherever they want here and you have to go looking for them. Talk about an Easter egg hunt on the daily. Amazing.
To change pages completely the group and I built a fogon last weekend. What is a fogon you ask? It's basically an oven and stove made out of bricks and dirt and a tiny bit of cement. With a metal stove and oven. It's a cheap and efficient way of keeping people from cooking on the ground because it is unsanitary, hurts peoples backs, and people breathe in all the smoke from cooking. You have to build it under a roof because the rain will ruin it so there is a chimney to take out the fumes from the house. It's pretty cool and a possible project we can do in site. But it took us 15 hours to make and there were 15 hours so if you're doing it with less... Best of luck. And here's some photos.
And fun fact of the day. Here we rake our lawns too. Except our lawns are dirt.
And a monkey just peed on my foot while writing this. So there's that.
