23

I turned 23 on March 13th and after having a wonderful time in the desert cooking out, I met my parents and Tessa in Germany for spring break.

It snowed.



And it was green.



And now I'm back in Cairo and it was 99 degrees today.

Spring

Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth.
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before Him with joyful singing.
- Psalms 100: 1-2

My favorite thing about spring is everyone's humming at work.




I know this picture is not in focus -- but look how small our kitchen is.

The Ancient Food Pyramid

Today at THW:

"Why do you think they made it a food pyramid?"
- "Because we're in Egypt"
"Why do you think they made it a pyramid in America?"
- "Because they love Egypt so much."

So next time you see a food pyramid, remember how much you love Egypt.
