Gave the Potato a Bath


I was forced today to say, “I gave the potatoes a bath.” When my night guard ate some of the soup I prepared for him he asked me about the skins I left on the potatoes. I knew exactly how it would sound before I prepared my response. Yet with my limited Kirundi I was stuck. What could I do? I do have to say that the Burundi people are so very kind to put up with my limited vocabulary. Please pray that God would continue to open my mind to this difficult language.
