夕方のスークで食材探し。赤く染まる夕焼けに照らされた野菜が綺麗。旅行者を見かけないこの街の市場に並ぶのは、ここに住む人々が買う食材ばかり。山積みになった食べ物を見ると、なんだか本当に幸せな気分になる。全てがここでカッサラ産というわけではなく、輸入品も周辺国からの輸入品もたくさん並んでいるようだけれど、でも豊かな土地だな、平和だな、なんて思ってしまう。この日買ったのは、トマト、ズッキーニ、ジャガイモ、玉ねぎとマンゴー。あとはテイクアウトの炭焼きチキン。これで500円ほど。今日の夕食はトマトスープ!
DAY 572 : TOMATO SOUP FOR TONIGHT'S DINNER
A grocery shopping at the bazar in the evening. The vegetables were shining beautifully in red under the sunset sky. I assumed that most of the stuff sold here were for the locals, some imported from neighbor countries, since there were no travelers around in this town. The piles of all sorts of food just made me so happy. The land seemed quite rich and peaceful. We bought some tomatoes, zucchinis, potatoes, onions and mangoes. In addition, a piece of BBQ chicken, for about 500 yen. We are going to cook tomato soup for dinner!
