mumu

Last week Paul and the survey team were invited to a nearby village to join in a goodbye celebration for one of the teachers, Donna, who's going on furlough. The village had a mumu (pronounced "moomoo") for Donna. A mumu is cooking food (cooking bananas, sweet potato, corn, squash, greens,chicken, lamb, or pig) on hot rocks that have been heated in the fire, either in a hole in the ground, or covered in banana leaves. As you can see in the photos, the village ladies made a lot of food!
