My friends here and I have been wanting to make dinner for quite some time-- today we finally did it. Pasta, broccoli, and chicken-- delicious and ordinary. Awesome.
We had a bit of an adventure trying to get the ingredients in the grocery store. While I know many food words in Turkish, I don't know how to differentiate between tomato sauce and paste except by guesswork (we guessed right). And good luck trying to find spices in a mini travel dictionary. We were stuck trying to smell the spices through the wrapping and guess if they'd go well with tomato sauce. But in the end, we succeeded in creating a perfectly ordinary dinner. Yay us.
