Botswana and Beyond

Botswana and Beyond
I’ve heard a few interesting phrases recently and thought they were interesting enough to share. I heard a lady at church mention that she had a “jolly time” at one of their recent functions. She seemed pretty “jolly” herself! Another lady asked me if I wanted to “plunk down.” Yep, I decided to stay where I was. Someone asked our children if they would like “a drink of orange squash.” Are you kidding? No way! But then we learned it’s the South African equivalent of Kool-aid and it really is quite okay after all! We were invited to a “braai” yesterday and enjoyed BBQ hamburgers, hot dogs, and steaks. Lucas and Alexis love to ride in the kid trolley at the store. I usually find a smaller shopping cart for myself. The grocery stores are so large that Dan and I usually divide and conquer our shopping list.
