After watching – and participating in – the sewing of peanuts in the field next to our compound, Simon started to play at planting seed in “his field” - one corner of our compound. We looked on, smiling indulgently … and were very surprised to discover one day that he actually had real corn growing in his field! Well, it turns out that our home help, Hélène, had planted it, and last week she suggested planting some okra too. So she, two of her kids, Simon, and another visiting boy all got busy planting the okra seeds.

Okra is one of my favourites,I served it up last week to 3 guests who didn't know what it was.
