So us Americans have been craving chocolate chip cookies. Let me tell you in South Africa they are hard to find… actually impossible to find. Leah and I were feeling confident so we decided that we were going to make a batch from scratch for everyone in our community. We went to the store and bought all the supplies, but could not find baking soda. I figured our house parents would have some so we went to their house to ask. Well they didn’t. Please let me explain how awesome our house parents are. Our dad jumped on his scooter and said he would be back. All the stores close early on Saturday so we were not sure if we could fulfill our promise to everyone in our development the chocolate chip cookies we had been raving about. Sure enough our house dad comes knocking on my door. When I opened the door, he had a bag full of supplies. He said “no worries I called my American friend and she provided me with all the supplies you will need.” I open the bag and the first item I see is a 72 oz bag of Nestle Chocolate Chips. I grabbed the bag and started tossing it in the air screaming. “American chocolate chips!!!!!!!!!!!” This was kind of a big deal compared to the chocolate flakes we were going to have to originally use before this delivery. The cookies turned out alright and we invited others over for our cookies!
