If you have ever been in a foreign country for a long period of time, especially one in the third world, and even more in Africa, then you will understand what I will be talking about in this blog!!  Food is what you miss the most while being gone.  I have never gotten an amazing cheeseburger like we have in America- oh I have tried and have gotten some pretty gross results.  While we were in Nairobi I actually found one that was not too bad but nothing to write home about:)  So since being here in Busia, we have tried to make some things that you find...
