Today I had red red for lunch at school. This dish consists of fried bananas (plantains) and bean curry. The bean curry is red. I do not know why it is called red-red. It was good. But now I am too full. With a faculty discount the meal comes to a dollar or less. So if I was complaining about high prices, school lunches are not among those.
In fact this is the second time I have tried outside food, with being sick and busy and all that. I have not had fufu yet but I did taste banku, which is similar to fufu, which I liked very much. The markets around where we live are uninteresting. The land lady and others have offered to take me around. I stop at the Land lady's house for a chat when I go back from school. People here are really friendly and orderly. No rushing, pushing, or shouting. Every one speaks English even road side sellers. They also speak Ga in Accra. In other cities they speak different languages.
There are 37 students in my class right now. It is a pleasure to see them hard at work on the hw which is due on Thursday. A little hard work hurt no one, so they say!
