We have been abundantly blessed in so many ways, and this group of people is just another undeserved blessing God has showered on our lives! Each of these families lives nearby and they have all adopted and/or are in the process of adopting from Ethiopia! This is a great group of Christian families that we will be able to surround ourselves with who share such a wonderful bond through Ethiopian adoption and faith. Our children will have friends who are sharing the same experiences they are and whose families love the Lord! It doesn't get any better than that!! We are soooo grateful for these families!!!

* All-purpose flour - 1 1/2 cups * whole wheat flour - 1/2 cup * baking powder - 1 tablespoon * salt - 1/2 teaspoon * club soda - 2 to 2 1/2 cups * lemons, juice only
1. Preheat large cast-iron skillet over medium flame. Mix flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder & salt in large bowl. Stir in club soda & mix to a smooth batter (thin consistency of pancake batter).
2. Wipe the skillet with a little oil using a paper towel. Ladle 1/2 cup of batter into the skillet and spread to make a large crepe. Let bake in skillet until all the bubbles on top burst and begin to dry out, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Turn injera over and cook on second side another minute or two. Don't brown too much.
4. Remove the injera to a warm platter & repeat with rest of batter, wiping skillet clean with oiled paper towel each time.
