So the Mama's Market had island cabbage today. It's been a month since any food was sold there due to the storm. I am not a fan of island cabbage BUT I felt like a queen walking down the main road back to the office with two bundles in tow, almost like a bouquet of flowers. I got stopped several times and got asked where I got them. With beaming joy I replied, "The mama's market". The next big smile came as I walked into the office with them and told the staff to take some home. The look of joy on their faces to have some, but also to know the market is slowly returning, was AMAZING!!!
Vanuatu is a strong, cultural country and I dare say island cabbage is a deep part of that culture. I'm so grateful that it is returning!!
Until Next time
