The Kenyan reaction to poprocks... and marshmallows... and froyo

I was shocked to find froyo had come to Nairobi! Of course, it was in a crazy bougie mall, but nonetheless.... I'd gone to that mall to buy "Simplified Swahili" a much, much, much, much, much, much, much better book than the Hinnebusch one we'd used in earlier classes.


Kenyans generally dislike eating/drinking anything cold. They even drink lukewarm beer.

They had tree tomato froyo! So weird.... I didn't try it. Figured it might not mix well with chocolate and mango and such....

Nyos eating a marshamallow on Safari. We also gave one to our guide who said, "She's come to bewitch us with these things!" Sometimes, I think half of the talking Kenyans do is joking.

Mashmallowwwwww
Nyos' adorable little cousin + poprocks


Nyos+ poprocks


Nyos performing whatever silliness he always does to that little one, this time in reference to poprocks.


My favorite: despite all appearances, he did enjoy them.
