Apologies for the lateness of today's post, feeling slightly under the weather!
But I'm always prepared, so for days when I fall a little short I've compiled an A-Z of all things Ghanaian to keep you entertained.
Today, A-F.
 |
| Pounding fufu, a cassava-based ball eaten with soup. |
A is for AKWAABA = Twi (a Ghanaian dialect) word for "Welcome!"
B is for Banku = a ball of corndough (soaked and fermented maize) which is usually eaten with fish or okro stew. Also related to kenkey which also has a corndough base.
C is for Cousins. Aren't they just the best :)
D is for Dansoman = the area in Accra where our family home was built my Grandad (who started calling me Banku when I was a baby -because I was so so fat- and has continued to call me Banku to this day. I'm even saved as Banku on his phone. I'm convinced he doesn't know my real name...)
E is for English language since English is still the official language of Ghana

| I was SO tempted to hijack this truck and drive it all the way back to the UK... |
And finally, F is for Fan Ice.
I'm totally addicted.
