Candlelight

By the time the women had dinner cooked over small charcoal fires for 30 people at the end of training each evening, it was already getting dark.  We gained a whole new appreciation for eating by candlelight!  Not quite the romantic ambiance often envisioned! There were no candle  holders so wax was dripped on the table and the candle plopped in the middle of the wax blob.  They even managed to provide wall sconces in the same way by dripping wax down the wall and sticking the candle vertically.  And the menu for dinner?  Nshima, greens, and small river fish.
