USA Donuts
Rock the vote!I haven't this done since college, thanks to the too-slow international absentee ballot system. The place to go for a vote, a coffee, and a treat? USA Donuts! A donut is shaped like an O... more than just a coincidence? Subliminal messaging and tuktuk adverts aside, it's just 50cents for a full-sized, hot, fresh, properly fluffy glazed donut and, and free to cast a ballot for *insert name of chosen Dem candidate*. Feeling a little patriotic.

Back in Penh
I'm here in Phnom Penh, I'm safe, I haven't abandoned the blog, and I'm living near the Royal Palace. Working at CCF and it's heaven, and after a week of many ups and downs, I am more adjusted to life here. Spent yesterday on a 3-hour (each way) journey via truck, ferry, and dugout canoe to a remote island to visit a village with a sponsor and some of the girls that used to live there. Better story and pretty photos to come. I won't post pictures of the CCF kids for security/privacy reasons, but you can see some of their stories at:

Life is sweet. (Coincidentally, if you want some freaking amazing gourmet chocolates with a warm and fuzzy aura, order the ones of that name from the CCF site. But stay away from the 'Bombay curry'. SO wrong.)

So wrong it's right. And then wrong. And then wrong again... welcome to the inaka.
