“No Soup For You” Contest

   Posted by: mpier   in Uncategorized

OK  Here’s some fun for the day. We bought 20 live chickens on Wednesday (yes, LIVE chickens) for the Care Point kids. The chickens were delivered in a kombi (a mini van type vehicle) and not a one of them was wearing a seat belt. Needless to say a little clean up was in order after unloading the hens. The preparation of our fine feathered friends was quite an eye opening experience for some of the missions team members. One of them even asked me which ones were the boys and which ones were the girls!! The Care Point kids were quite excited to join in the plucking and were able to teach us all a thing or two in this fine art.

Anyway, here’s the challenge. Take a look at the picture and see if you know what the soup is made from. This is a special dish the cooks from the Care Point prepared and it is one of their favorites. Here’s a hint, I really thought they were joking when they told me the name of this dish but they were serious!!  Walky-Talky Soup is what this fine African delicacy is called. The first one to identify the 3 main ingredients gets a free bowl when they come to Africa!!! Carrots don’t count, that’s too easy.

Ya know, a famous pastor I know once tought me how to suck crawfish heads and I’m just not falling for that again, especially not with chicken heads! I’m praying for you!

Considering I was there to see the ingredients, I won’t give the full answer away. I will say it’s all efficiently using what The lord has made. Although, it wasn’t ‘good eatin’in my neighborhood. The preparation of living to cooked was the most exciting. I learned a thing or two. Have fun Mike and Press on.
