Joao

Also worth mentioning is that my youngest brother Joao turned 19 last Sunday!!!!! He got a whole bunch of presents and cooked dinner for all of us. For those of you who don't know the whole story: he's from Angola and my parents adopted him, while I was away in Germany... (they love me, don't they? :) They don't eat potatoes there (which we Dutch very much do), so we had the largest bowl of rice I have ever seen, plates with chickens and steaks and lot's of beans. My god, it was much. Too bad I have an eating aversion to all that has wings or bones... But the beans and rice were superb (as was the rest according to my family).
