Poulet 337

Our date night ritual has all but disappeared now that we live in Haiti.
It wasn't for lack of trying, it is just complicated.
I figure it can either be something that makes me really crabby or we can learn to be really creative and come up with ways we can spend time together. Since my love language is one on one time together crabby can knock on my door pretty often around here. It is my job not to answer the door.
Our days are very busy so it isn't always easy to get away.
After all we do have about one hundred ladies that come through our house every week.
Again a problem for the one on one thing.
We used to meet at Starbucks to get a coffee and talk for an hour or so....no such thing here. We had our favorite dinner spots and I loved to go out for breakfast after car pool and before work at the gallery.

Going out to eat here just isn't really something I find relaxing. It can take alot to get where you want to go here. It took us almost two hours to get to the other side of town to see Margaret today. Once you get to your destination you can wait hours for food and fairly often they just don't have much of a selection.

Today was a creative date day...
I grabbed my camera, an arm load of new reading material for Margaret to help her pass the time allowing her back to heal and off we went. She hasn't left the house in weeks because of her back. We visited for awhile, prayed with her and got ready to make our way back. On the way home Dan asked if I wanted to try his "chicken place".
Uuummmm in a word, No!
I didn't want to wait an hour for rice, beans and chicken since it was almost one o'clock. He promised it wouldn't take all that long, he had eaten there before.
It was clean, quick and cheap! All magic words when eating out here. Much to my delight it was all he said it would be.
