Special Gift - Cassava Roll(Suman)

Before I came home last Friday,one of my student gave me cassava roll in banana leaves. It is call suman. Before, when I have my working student, we always cooking this and we have planted at home.

What made me pushed to write and share this with you because of the memory about this food. When we were a child. We were four siblings but all in all we ate six sibling but the two youngest brother and sister came along with us after 14 years of my existence. I was supposed to be the youngest Ami g four siblings. After the marriage of our eldest sister, my mother was pregnant two times and that made us six in all. My nephew is older than my youngest brother.

When we were young, out parent fed us corn not rice. Sometimes sweet potato(camote)or cassava cake or roll like this.

When my student handed me this , why the memory of my mother popped up in my mind. It remind me our life when we were eating this. We were happy eating and sleep together but now they are all gone, my mother and father.

Our grandparent are all in heaven. This cassava role were their favorite too gone too. Our eldest siblings is not around.Well, cassava roll is good for us. We grew up from what this Filipino delicacy. After eating with this mind of food, it made me full and not hungry quickly.

I told my student to extend my gratitude to her mother who specially made it.

That's my story today. Have a wonderful day. Tomorrow I willbe back to the mountain again.
