$90 Dinner Bill!

According to the title, you probably thought I was going to write about our family having dinner out. Well, we were not eating out, we were eating in!  What you may ask were we eating? Steak, celery, and bread with a few fresh carrots thrown in. :)

Yes, the meat was expensive. $65 for 8 smallish steaks... No Pheasant Cove hunk of meat here!  Only some very thin slabs of steak. 

BUT, this is not where all my fortunes were spent!  We finally got FRESH celery in the store!!!  I bought two "bunches". Anyone wanna guess how much??  Anyone... Anyone???

Only 260,000 rupiah or the USD equivalent of $25!!!!!!

I know, crazy!!!  But sometimes you just have to buy it if you want anything fresh. And after the most awful week in Chris' mining career, we needed some comfort food!  

Yeah, we don't get the normal "comfort" food here either... ;)

Love to you all!
