and i am and as you know we've had a psychic show in seattle for some time and now we're  there and get jobs and they're not afraid of hard work and they're very meticulous and what they do and one thing i really have to admire about these people is they are so devoted to their religion that they will fast like two hundred days  and when they do go to church it's like for eight hours and they do not have pews in their church so they are more last worshiping rather standing up and i think that would really be very hard because i know a lot of people they don't even want to go to church for half an hour it's too much for them so you really have to admire people that are sorry voted into their families and to their religion and to their food and so this is the obvious the surprise is something to carry on this have but we're going to now when we do our ethiopia and our recipe whether i'm going to be doing is tough enough some of our beats and we have to take this here and we're going to be thirty and green peppers and spin age i have can spin age and i also and this is a really wonderful knife that a friend gave me it's if you have arthritis it has a very good handle on it and people that have arthritis sometimes come out of our grasp handle so what we're going to do is chopped really really fine but when i'm cooking their shows i like to be able to at least taste what i'm eating and have a little something to crunch on  yes today we're really going out of the comfort zone and we're specializing in an east african recipe oil or canola oil or vegetable oil that's
