Alcohol (Scotch,
Gin)
A couple weeks ago Sally and my dad shared a scotch but I cant remember where it was from and what it was called.
Also when S and R were here the either bought a Bottle of Gin or it was already here ,but they would have Gin and Tonics after Work. On new years eve Alex and Emily
Had us over for dinner and they had Tanzanian Organic Brandy.



Breakfast


For a week when my mom and dad weren’t here in the mornings griff and me usually had a couple of Mandazee (like a donut but less sweat) for breakfast.
But now griff is making me either oatmeal or some sort of thing with eggs.
Occasional on weekends or on Holidays my mom will make French toast,or pancakes with baken and eggs (Rose’s recipe)(yum).



Lunch

For lunch on a usual day when are house keeper is here we have soup witch she makes. (Her name is Juliette). Each time it is the same soup but it tastes a little bit different.
But on weekend, holiday, or days we tell her not to make soup we have eggs, sandwiches, or leftovers. One time when 10 guests were here we homemade humus, bred, swished eggs, and some stuff I can’t remember.



Dinner

There is now main dinner because it varies every night. Some nights it wraps, or some night it Leah’s famous Tanzania pizza. We also have had fish from the market and people always make spaghetti on Wednesday. We have also had lezonya and a bunch of other stuff I cant remember. But out of all the good and bad dinners my favorite would have to be leah famous home made Organic Tanzania PIZZA.


Desert

For desert we’ve had a selection of foods. One time we’ve had banana ice cream with chocolate brownie. Or we’ve had two groups of people make bunofie pie!!!! And Rose of rose and sal made her famous banana bread and also rose thought Julittet how to make it so we’ve had roses and Juliet’s great banana bread.



Snacks

In Muheza there are a selection of snack including tic tac cracker, peanut brittle, crisps, peanuts, cashus, and a lot other stuff.



Treats, Chocolate bars, biscuits, and candy,

Here in Muheza you cant get a lot of treats but in tanga you can get everything that Muheza has plus more! Like the Snickers bar, mars bar, Bounty bar and a lot other bars. Plus Digestives cookies, assorted cookies, a lot of crap cookies, and some good cookies e.g. eat sum or short bread cookies. (Some is spelt sum on the package).



And those are the food and drinks from tanga and mostly MUHEZA.

Great post Sy. You've captured the options well. We had veggie curry, raita and naan bread last night with Jan and Colleen and watched the pictures again so we were thinking about Muheza and food too.

Really interesting to read your list. It's cool to know what you have and don't have on your trip. Are you missing any particular foods from home?
