Always my pleasure, but apologies o’Berserker of the Win Board, but dinner will have to be served a tad bit late today…

As you see, I spent a good amount of time early this morning sailing the Fijian archipelago in search for a spot with good soil, earthy, fresh breeze, with a view of the surrounding Pacific. Took me about an hour to dig a bowl shaped hole, line the bottom with some rocks (maybe volcanic), and start a nice roaring fire fueled by indigenous wood from the surrounding area.

As I was wrapping cuts of fish, goat, pork and fowl marinated with coconut cream, garlic, onions, sweet limes and zesty herbs freshly plucked from the forest… a bright flash caught my eye, as I looked out I saw a curious craft - not so dissimilar to the bowl I just dug - hovering above a dark spot in the ocean. Quite odd, but these meats aren’t going to wrapped themselves…

Palm and banana leaves always does the trick. I did find some screw pine as well! That’ll do nicely with the taro dessert.

Cassava root, sweet potatoes, turnips, Dalo… It all goes into the earthen oven, the wood now embers.

It’s only been an hour since I’ve covered up the treasure. I’m sitting back, sipping on fresh coconut water, the first cricket calls are running out… the craft is still out there, but the ocean water underneath seem to be… boiling. Maybe a regeneration-fueling station?

Either way, in 3 or so hours… we’ll feast together.
