So here is some of the local food from Niger. Doesn't it look yummy?

Mmm...intestines anyone?

Judging by the tail, I'd say it's a sheep!

This is "fura" which is made up of a ground millet paste mixed with water. Add sugar and ice for added goodness...

Tuwo...mashed millet or corn paste with an okra and spice sauce...

"Mia"...onion/pepper sauce which is good on rice or to dip bread in

Beans ("Wake")

Millet...
Favorite Hausa Phrase of the Day:
Ina da farin ciki.
"I am happy."
(or literally translated..."I am with a white stomach.")
Cool, huh?

well, if a "white stomach" makes you happy, then I guess so...
but "yunwa" means full...maybe emotions or feelings are a "gut" thing, in the stomach.
