Life according to Manny

-When life hands you chicken…eat everything, including the bones. (Apparently all Ghanaians do this).

-Never leave food on a plate…Never.

-When swimming, scream incoherently in foreign language at Daddy.

-White people will buy me everything I can think of in America.

-Contrary to previous belief, it is okay to flush toilet paper.

-Eggs+toast+2lbs rice+3 chicken breast (including bones)+29 raisins+1 sucker+2 rice -krispie treats= Daddy cleaning up vomit from floor at 2am while Mommy gags in the corner

-Grasshopper is delicious

-Take turns with everything…including suckers

-"Cool Runnings" (staring John Candy) is a cinematic masterpiece that is completely underappreciated by our generation

-Don’t eat the crust on the sandwich. Only eat the crust if it is on my plate after Daddy cuts it off

-Peanut Butter is overrated. Jelly is cool though.

-Sandwiches are best when eaten with a fork and a spoon

-Appearantly S.H.I.* is a dirty word... who knew!?


Daily update- we visited the orphanage today and had another very moving time. We gave some reading books to the 12 year old girl I mentioned earlier. From time to time children from the orphange come back to the hotel to play with the other kids; so we invited her back to the hotel with us. We all swam, and ate good food, and watched a movie with all the kids! Overall, it was a Good day.
