After working all day as a housekeeper/nanny for an American family, and cooking for a couple other people on the weekends, Tina bakes. Someone who works at the embassy and appreciates her dedication and hard work just bought her her first stove with four burners. Everyone thinks she should just bake, she is so good. She makes banana bread, zucchini bread, cookies and all kinds of other baked goods: she is the only source in the whole country for these and many other items, unless you want to make them yourself. Here she is delivering our standing order for tortillas, bagles and whole wheat bread. Pay her $2 taxi fare and she delivers the baked goods to your door. She is 24 years old and has five children. She was married at age 13.
