Mumu

Saturday, our friends were getting baptized, and there was a mumu (feast cooked underground) to celebrate. 

Mumu’s take a lot of preparation.  LOTS.

      There are sweet potatoes to peel and ginger to peel.  I  spent a couple hours and helpers to slice this much ginger! 

But in the preparation, there is a togetherness, that doesn’t come with every day activities and busy schedules.  It is one of my favorite times with PNG friends to sit around working, telling stories, and laughing together!
