I had a ton of food adventures during the four weeks including:

I had a ton of food adventures during the four weeks including:
- Making yogurt with Patrick and Wendy
- Granola with Jess (fruit after baking, doh!)
- Making Jon Laws' pickled green beans with Jess
- A Lebanese feast prepared by Jess
- Cucumber pickles with Patrick
- Three amazing meals with Jane who makes everything look easy
- One 'oven surprise'
- Ugali that actually tastes like something edible at a Moi's Brigde choma zone (pictured above)
- Brie and Peppered salami imported from Nairobi
- Chili paneer from Siek Union
- Dinner at Sanjeel complete with cheese nan and tandoori paneer
- A fabulous send-off dinner complete with a pumpkin cheesecake by Jess and Katy
