Valentine's Day: Caraway Anyone?!

Shauen made a half-hearted attempt to get out of Valentine's Day this year, guessing that they probably don't celebrate it here in Uganda. He was wrong! While certainly not as extreme as back home (no Hallmark cards here!) there are small Valentine's Day displays set up in most of the groceries stores. In one such display that we saw yesterday, they advertised purchasing "exotic" fruits for your loved one: apples and grapes! Shauen snuck a Valentine's Day cake in among the groceries, we tried it for lunch today. We haven't had many sweet things here in Uganda, it seems there isn't that appreciation for sugar like there is in the States! Now some of you may be aware, but I am not a fan of caraway, it is one of the few things I am picky about, and what flavor did our Valentine's Day cake end up being? Caraway! Simply not expected by either of us! Oh well, we're going to to dinner tonight at a place that has ice cream on their dessert menu, that'll work to satisfy my sweet tooth!  -Krista
