Hangi

The Maori Society Department was holding a hangi so I went to get some food and check it out. A hangi is a traditional Maori method of cooking used on special occasions; the food is cooked in a big pit in the ground. It was fun to sit and eat my bin of baked veggies and be surrounded by Maori people. They were loud, funny, and full of life; it was like watching a big family since everyone knew everyone else. I don't think I'll eat the food at the next one I go to a hangi though, mine gave me food poisoning.
