In this second volume of AAFSW's "Realities of Foreign Life," 29 members of the U.S. diplomatic community - including employees, spouses and one articulate teen - share their knowledge, research and personal perspectives, broadening and extending the first book's candid insights into the Foreign Service lifestyle. Focusing on the "realities" faced by diplomats and their families outside the embassy or consulate walls, the authors explore topics such as schooling and housing abroad, intercultural marriage, medical evacuations, employment for accompanying partners, and the growing number of unaccompanied assignments. - If you are already a member of the Foreign Service community (and especially if you have recently joined), this book will provide useful and practical information for the fascinating but often challenging journey ahead. - If you (or your partner) are thinking about entering the Foreign Service, this book joins the first volume in serving as a "reality check," offering a clear view of both the positive and negative aspects of Foreign Service life, for partners and children as well as employees. - If you are a student contemplating a career in diplomacy, a friend or relative of a Foreign Service member - or if you are simply curious about the lives of U.S. diplomats and their families overseas - this book will give you an insider's perspective found nowhere else.Binding Type: Paperback

Great plate, great value
Size: 500 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Brown
I have been purchasing these plates for over a year and a half to two years and they’re quite excellent. They are very durable and hold up exceptionally well. A great value for the dollar.

You need to stack 3 trays for a turkey…
Size: 9*13 Aluminum Pans
I had to stack 3 of these light weight trays to cook my 11lb turkey. Heavy duty? Prove it. These thickness on these trays are no way close to what I’ve seen real heavy duty trays. The most accurate description on this item that they are disposable.
If you are baking cookies then you’ll be fine but if you are cooking hefty meals then this is not the tray you are looking for.
All in all though, this is honestly my fault for not going to my local market and getting a real tray and instead of using amazon search algorithm to find a tray.
1/5 would not get it again for meat.
5/5 I would get it to bake muffins or small sized bakery pastries and size is accurate.
Averages out to 2.5 stars but for lying on the title saying you can cook turkeys on this thing. I’m give it a 2/5.

Get all the cooking pans you need for the holidays.
Size: 9*13 Aluminum Pans
These really came in handy this holiday season. With all the parties to cook for, the business potlucks everyone had, and just needing a way to make large meals in one go, I burned thru most of these in a three week span. The worked great with baking a ham, keeping ribs warm in the oven, a large amount of banana pudding, bulk cooking potatoes, and several large chickens being roasted using these pans. The hold up well to heavy foods without warping or bending (always keep a sheet pan under it of course). And most of them were washed out and set to the side to be used again, saving even more money.
