Goat: It's what's for Dinner.

Here at RVA we are blessed with some really great guards to keep us safe enough that even Daddy approves of where I live. Some of these guards happen to be Masai - one of Africa's biggest tribes. They're fantastic and rich in tradition - google them sometime if you'd like.

Anyways, a dear couple here, the Holts, decided to buy a goat from one of our Masai guards and roast it for some of their workers and their families as well as a few of the guards we're friends with. So Sammy (the owner of the goat) brought up his goat in the trunk of a car and there in the Holts' backyard we watched as they slaughtered it. I have great pictures of it all, but seeing as most of you probably don't want to see them, I'll just post a few :) The meal was complete with other Kenyan favorites - chapatis, sakuma wiki, stew, and other meats. They also fried the intestines, but unfortunately due to a chain of events I was too late for that... bummer! Such a fun day - thanks Holts!
Before...
And after!
Sammy and Givan and their little girls!
