Ethiopian Grocery Store

Through all of Rich's aimless online searching, he found an African grocery store not too far from our house. So, today on our way somewhere else we stopped in. Of course we found a wonderful woman from Ethiopia (with a 4 year stop in Germany, how perfect is that) who showed us all of her products, told us how to cook food, and served us some Misir Wat that she had fixed. She makes her own injera which is the spongy, flat bread that Ethiopian food is served on-Declan is particularly fond of that. He thought the Misir Wat was a little too spicy but Tsige told us just to call before we came the next time and she would fix him something that Ethiopian children like. Tsige was nice enough to tell us all about the Ethiopian Orthodox church in town and invited us to come anytime. We purchased a few items because we are starting to try to cook something Ethiopian food. Rich tried to convince Tsige that he wanted to make his own injera but she thought that was not a good idea, we should just buy hers...which we will probably do! It was a great experience, one that I think we will repeat many times....
