Like any other vegetables, I was never crazy about it but it is okay. But the hindusthani(?) name 'parowol' for 'potol' is just driving me nuts. I would rather talk about it in English. :) Oh, please don't think this now: 'eh, aami imaan sirius kotha paati aasu - dex-bidexor baare-boronia rajnitir kotha-r logote` upor-khapor kotha, eo akou aahil eta paak-ghoror xoru kotha eta loi'. I better go home to take care of our two beautiful (I better say, handsome before they feel insulted, but they are too beautiful - you know what I mean, if you ever have had a dog at home) dogs.
