Sometimes on leap year before we go and relax mum tells us to go and clean up while she goes and get the food for our hangi at countdown. When she gets back with the food she says put them on the bench and then some of my family start arriving to help prepare the hangi. For lunch we usually have fish and chips with pizza.Then the rest of the family arrive. While mum and the adults make the hangi and the children play outside. When there finished we go inside and there’s heaps of things on the table like stuffing(my favourite)meat,cabbage,carrot,fried bread and heaps more things. “Mum usually says a grace and then says amen”.

Monday 11th March

 

Sometimes, at Christmas, dad would tug the cover off the dusty old barbeque and we would have a big family dinner. Cousins, aunties, uncles, grandparents started to arrive around lunch as mum and Nanny started to prepare the food. Sausages, steak, fresh bread, eggs, pasta salad and meat patties.

 

People sat out on the deck in big comfy deck chairs and chatted and drunk beer while us kids run around the backyard. “Foods ready!" Yelled mum from the kitchen. "Come get it!"
