Sloppy Joes, Apple Pie, Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan

While Ernie & Anna, the missionaries that we are living with, were away on vacation, Shushan and I were basking in all of our new found freedom! On Friday October 27th, Shushan and I were able to have our first American movie night with our conversation group. Boy was it entertaining! It began at six o’clock with a traditional American dinner of sloppy joe’s, jo-jo’s (AKA “Potato Wedges” if you are from Indiana), salad, and apple pie for dessert. After dinner we watched the classic Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan flick, Sleepless in Seattle. I know what you are probably thinking… “Were there guys at this event?” To answer this question, yes there were. In our defense, we gave them a choice between Sleepless in Seattle and The Rookie, a baseball movie with Dennis Quaid. At the first mention that The Rookie was about baseball, even the men immediately chose Sleepless in Seattle. Sorry baseball fans, you probably will not find many peers here in Ukraine!
