Afrojiri Sacco

Morning talkers,
Happy Easter.

Lord God,
Jesus cried out to you on the cross,
“Why have you forsaken me?”
You seemed so far from his cry
And from his distress.
Those who stood at the foot of the cross
Wondered where you were,
As they saw Jesus mocked and shamed and killed.
Where were you then?
Lord God,
We, too, ask where you are,
When there is trouble and suffering and death,
And we cry out to you for help.
Be near to us, and save us
So that we may praise you for your deliverance.
Lord God,
We wait, on Friday, for the resurrection of Sunday
And sometimes our lives seem a succession of Fridays
And we cannot see what is “Good.”
Teach us to call your name
As Jesus did.
Make us to trust in you like little children.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Traditional porridge… Ucuru wa kugagatio:D:D:D

Ucuru wa gukia? Huo uji mtamu sana especially from some grains grown in the North East slopes of Mt. Kenya, Meruensis.

Yes Padre…naona you are familiar with it

Gari iko na puncture.
(There’s a reason why Harry Belafonte’s Hole in the Bucket was one of my favorite song. )

Love it ! Wamukiyo Kana ni wa heho ? From kirinyaga Millers pale chini khoja roudabout, kwa hawkers

You are on point, that store has served us well…first my mum raised us with their unga,then we also do the same with our kids and our kids will buy their Unga there too.Whatever business model they used ,it worked like magic.

musito hiso ni vitambaa kwa ukuta?, kweli you lost a ball

The best such porridge is made of wimbi or mawele (or both) mixed in water and traditionaly finely ground with two stones,

hio ni gruel sio wa kugagatia

We have those stones… But grinding si mchezo

ucuru wa mikiyo. Tumia ndirii na muthiì and not so green maize .Make sure you have 6 inya cia ucuru …oooooh how i miss cucu wa gikuyu . May she and all my sweet Aunties rest in peace

Many year ago they were based at Kirinyaga rd opposite Geela Auto spares used to take my grandmother there

I wonder how old the store is.

Any long holiday is always an opportune time to continue work on the pigsty.
Happy Easter weekend to those in the holiday mood.

It has served generations

This is the best time to sin yaaani usherati coz on monday the blood of our Lord and saviour,Jesus Christ will flow…it really is a good Friday

I thought he was betrayed yesternight denied before cock crow and will be speared this afternoon and bleed blood and water after a drink of bile. A Maria, we can’t tell if it’s the mother or the Magdalene will discover the body missing Sunday but because we like ourselves a holiday we’ll celebrate the rising on Monday

Did you go to Sunday school ?

Good day people!
