While I started the fire, Yalaxow fetch more wood and Righteous decapitated the animal, I requested that the two select which part of the animal they want since they were my guests in the Great Hawd
Righteous requested that he takes "qarka danbe" and Dr Yalaxow was quick in his choice: "I want the mid-section" he said with a funny accent never heard in the Great Hawd
I happily took the "qarka hore" and quickly got the juicy "garab" and remembered a Hawdian chant about "ilen garab waxar ma deqo" sorry can't recall the full chant.
I enjoyed my shoulder blade in peace while Righteous enjoyed his "misig". Dr Yalaxow did his thing somewhere in the bushes at least a mile out off the "ardaa".
After filling up. I was curious why each man took that part. Righteous said he had a thing for clean and lean meat found in the "misig" adding "aarbowe Wallahi wa sununad macaan". Dr. Yalaxow on his explanation said "xaa sheegay aboowe ani calooley inti lega helo wa ogahay hee". We all laughed.
Join me next time when we go fishing in Biyokulule and then off to Yalaxow's neck of the wood where we hope to catch a hyena for fest.
