wow

our new flatmate (abdul, sierra leone) arrived last week some time.
i am not sure how old he is -- roughly mid-20's
studies geo-physics.
and (this is where the funny part comes in) has ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE how to
operate in a kitchen.
the other day i found him standing, looking blankly at the 2-slice toaster
he asked how to use it. i internally shook my head and chuckled and externally smiled and sort of suggested that he could probably suss it out.
then i realized he was holding a store bought sub/sandwich like all sloppy with mayonnaise and little bits of lettuce and chunks of chicken.
it didn't get much better when i led him over to the oven (warning that the vegetables would get kind of lame with heat).

whatever.

just now i noticed that he has a plastic tub of neapolitan ice cream.
he must have bought it days ago.
it is under a box of eggs on the top shelf of the fridge.
should i move it for him or tell him or just let him figure it out on his own?
