The entire summer after we got evacuated, I kept hoping that we would go back. I remember getting word from my parents while I was at a retreat of some sort that we couldn't go back and were going to move to Iowa City. I burst into tears and said, "Iowa City? Iowa City?!! Who wants to live there?!"<br /><br />The thing our family missed the most was all of my mom's recipes. I guess the fact that all our worldly possessions were in a few suitcases made us all miss simple things like recipes that brought back memories of happier times. Amazingly, one of the missionaries who went back briefly and visited our home saw the recipe cards scattered all over and picked them up and mailed them to us. That meant more to us than just about anything else we could have received.Chocolate, Vanilla and Caramelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08477024009100356240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5118517190489901866.post-89471105550196717152009-05-31T07:34:46.129+03:002009-05-31T07:34:46.129+03:00Megan, the name doesn't sound familiar, but there ...Megan, the name doesn't sound familiar, but there were a lot of missionaries there.

I have a friend who grew up as an MK in Liberia and he's about the same age as you. Did you know a William's family?
