GAP-Haiti Mission News Blog: Mossburg Strings

The Mossburg Strings will be performing at our Annual Dinner on November 8. Hope you can make it!

Welcome to GAP-Haiti mission blog

This is the blog site for ( G.A.P. ) go and produce ministries. I first started my career as a missionary in April 2000 after having had two other careers. At the time I was well into the second half of my life. A good friend of mine refers to this period as the down hill side of the mountain phase of life. I have never asked him to clarify whether he means he is half way through the journey or into the easiest part. I know for my particular situation both applied. I had retired from a Fortune 500 company with a pension and lifetime health insurance and into a career owning a construction company. Like many of my friends I could see retirement not too far off in the future. God had other plans and purpose in mind for me. While so many others my age are contemplating retiring and the easy life there are others like myself who feel inspired to work harder and give more of themselves to others. I once read a book titled "Finishing Strong" that advocated that God expects us to finish life in a strong and positive way. I hope this blog will be an inspiration for others who feel that life is a new beginning in the second half and intended to be every bit as productive as the first.

Creole Recipes

"Banaan Peze" or pressed plantains
Peel the plantain and cut it diagonally into 2 or 3 pieces. Let them sit in salted water at least an hour. Fry them in hot oil in a skillet then lower the heat for a few minute.Remove and absorb excess oil with paper toweling. Press them with a manufacured press or 2 pieces of board or anything that will flatten them. Place back in oil and deep fry getting them as crisp as possible is the way I prefer to eat them.
"Peekleez" or Pickles
Cut into small pieces white cabbage carrots, onions, shallots, 1 red and 1 green hot pepper, and 1 red and 1 green pepper. Add a clove of garlic and some whole black pepper. Put everything in a glass jar or bowl and pour 2-3 cups of boiling white vinegar , juice and pulp from 1 lime and 3 chicken bouillon cubes, add some salt. Great on banaan peze, meat and rice dishes.
