Last night our friend Daniel B. invited me, my flatmate Sahar, and a few other friends to a dinner at his new apartment to celebrate his move from our building. We arrived at 6 pm and started helping prepare the food. We tried turning on the stove to start frying veggies…<\/p>\n
and it wouldn’t light.<\/strong> No gas was coming out.<\/p>\n Sahar and I trooped around to the back of the building to see if the gas balloon had run out. As we turned the corner, we encountered a large dog<\/strong> chained on the hill above us. After consultation we decided to walk past him calmly and ignore the barking.<\/p>\n As I checked each of the gas ballons, Sahar chatted with the dog. It was impossible to tell which one was for Daniel’s apartment.<\/strong> We threw up our hands in despair and went back inside. Daniel called a few other Baha’is on that street and Adam C. kindly offered his stove. Sahar and Jayce took some of the food over to start the process.<\/p>\n As Daniel and I were preparing the rest of the food, the fuse blew. Twice.<\/strong> We couldn’t find the fuse box at first, finally locating it in the hallway outside his door.<\/p>\n Sahar called when she got to Adam’s house. “Um…the stove here isn’t working<\/strong>, the guys are trying to figure it out.” I started laughing. They eventually got it lit (someone had turned off their gas line!) and we ate dinner at 9 pm.<\/p>\n It was a wonderful adventure, and we ate a ridiculous amount of food when it was all over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last night our friend Daniel B. invited me, my flatmate Sahar, and a few other friends to a dinner at his new apartment to celebrate his move from our building.
