Cheyanne, the daughter of Valarie, my friend and former co-worker at the DU Bookstore, is currently working as a Peace Corps volunteer in Mozambique. She also has a great Blog documenting her experiences there, which can be found at www.timeinmozambique.blogspot.com. Recently she wrote about an assignment to kill, clean and cook a chicken (see Cheyanne's photograph above), which was given to better understand the local culture. Cheyanne was unable to carry this out. For this I blame the mother. Valarie and Cheyanne lived in the foothills of Colorado for years, but did Valarie EVEN ONCE teach Cheyanne the art of killing, cleaning, and cooking a chicken, a skill that Cheyanne might some day desperately need? SHE DID NOT! How incredibly disappointing. What more can I possibly say?
