6th - I Dream of Spices | Reading
My
mother
would
say:
“Little
boy
Raj...
Go
to
Muthu’s
and
get
some
cinnamon,
betel
leaves
and
ginger
and
garlic.”
And
so
I
go
to
the
shops
singing
all
the
way
and
when
Muthu
asks
me
what
I’d
want
I
rattle
off
a
list:
“Sesame
seeds,
onions
tomatoes
and
pickles”
And
back
home,
Mother
twists
my
ears
Ouch!
I Dream of Spices
