Sadza Night with my Murungu's

The summer after my BYU graduation (which was 8 years ago...Yikes!), I went with 3 other RMYL {Recreation Management Youth Leadership} interns to Zimbabwe, Africa for the summer to complete our degrees. It was my adventure of a lifetime. I fell deeply in love with this country and it's amazing people. We got to experience real life in Harare where we lived for the majority of our stay. I could probably write a book on the crazy things that happened to us and places we traveled. It was something that changed my life forever. Experiences like this aren't complete without the friends that I shared it with. Which is why we still get together for sadza nights and reminisce about the adventures we had and people we met there. After we came back from Africa, we were all roommates and worked at the Boys and Girls Club. We share a lot of memories and it's no wonder we want to get together because each have that same love for Africa. It's amazing how good our sadza tastes because of the memories behind it. Thanks Kenna and Maren for the fun night! T.I.A.

Wow, that is on my list of things to do before I die, go to Africa. I have no idea what Sadza is, and hope it tastes better than it looks! :) Is it like mashed potatoes? The rest of the dinner looks very yummy though.

Yay for sadza! Thanks for letting us invade your house! It was so much fun, and we need to do it more often! I just love you girls!

How fun. What an awesome experience and how cool that you have friends with whom to relive the memories. What is sadza anyways? It looks good
