Mary’s Last To’ona’i

06/01/08

To’ona’i is the large traditional meal served after church on Sunday. It is cooked on the Samoan umu or outdoor oven. This one is special for it is our host’s family last with Mary. The meal is modest by most Samoan standards with apologies for not having enough money to buy even more food. But it is even better because all the ingredients, including the pig, are grown and produced on the family’s land.
