The morning routine is more routine and we got everyone off to the buses without drama. Aeden and I went back to the police station with the same man from TED as Monday, and we spent 2 hours waiting around, signing something, waiting around more, signing something else, and then finally we left.
Aeden has been enjoying wearing the scarf Ayse's mother made and that Ayse gave to me before leaving for Turkey. It has little coins on the edges that jingle when he runs around. He completed his ensemble today with Lacey's swim goggles. Oh my.
I spent the rest of the day surfing recipes online to figure out something to make with lentils besides lentil soup with tomatoes. I laughed when I realized that I should just go to a Pullman "Lentil Capital of the World" website, or remember back to the lentil festival and remember the lentil chili, pancakes, cakes, and burritos that people were selling. Hmm. I found a recipe for Armenian Lentils and chose that. When Brian got home it was cooking and I felt pretty on top of things. We liked it; Aeden liked it (ate 3 servings of it!); but the girls wouldn't touch it. It was basically lentils and bulgur with caramelized onions and toppings of lemon juice, plain yogurt, and green onions. Pretty tasty after plain white rice the night before.
And finally, some pictures of our apartment. More to come, but here are the highlights (after the cleaners came of course :-)
(we've rearranged furniture now,
but this is off to the right of the dining area
in one large space)
