An Original Haiku: SATURDAY BRAAI
In South Africa we have great weather all year round this probably what gave rise to our national obsession of a "braai". Braai is essentially a BBQ with wood or charcoal. If you are South African you would look for any excuse to have a braai. For this reason it is not uncommon to have a braai on a Saturday afternoon and invite friends over to watch the sports match of the day.
great time to kuier with peeps;
All here for the game!"

Hi @aaarif - Yes, BBQ's are great anywhere, but here in South Africa it's an obsession..
Hha, "chicken or beef" remind me of an aeroplane flight!

Hi @rlt47, Greetings from #HHG11! Saturday Braai sounds so authentic! What a nice bonding culture that you have. I love grilled and barbeque food. The grilled food especially on cold days are just to die for. Thanks for another great Haiku and for making this great culture blog for #HHG11. Stay Blessed :D
