Somalia Last night I mentioned that we really wanted to crack into the big, uncoloured spaces on our world map, so Somalia was a good place to start. We cooked a spicy fish stew, made with a selection of seafood, curry and tomatoes and served with rice. We have included a photo which is meant to show the big tentacly octopus on the top of Niamh's bowl, but it hasn't come out very well. I would just like to say how proud of the kids I am; it's a pretty big call to eat whole octopus in the name of experimentation, but they both did. Niamh actually ate the whole lot: squid, shrimps, mussels etc, a lot of which were new tastes for her. We all discovered some new and interesting flavours which we would not have otherwise tried...and I guess that's what this adventure is all about. We have the night off tomorrow as Niamh is having a pizza party, but are back into it on Thursday.
