Bil Hanna wi Shiffa

Our friends are in the military and graciously took us to the commissary here! What a treat!!!!! We were able to get great American food at great American prices! Instead of paying $10 for coffee creamer (which we don't ever do here), we got it for $2.62! Instead of paying $2.50 for a can of cream of chicken soup, we got it for $.69. When we brought all of the food home the kids were screaming with excitement as we got each item out of the bags.
In Arabic when you are given food at someone's home they may say to you, "Bil Hanna wi shiffa" which means "May this food make you happy and heal you." Well, I am not sure this food with make us healthy but it sure does make us happy!!!

A real live HAM for Christmas dinner!


Tostitos sell here for about $8 a bag...not at the commissary...$2!!!
Bacon...and do you see the biscuits and crescents to the left? We can't even find those here!!

Can you tell we are excited?!?
