Saligao Khotla: Milag, the last surviving render (toddy-tapper) of my
village is back from his evening "soor" (toddy) collection trip. Every
"khapancho maad" (coconut trees with niches on them) reminds me of my
childhood days and that brave breed of renders of the seventies.  My salute
to Milag for retaining the age-old tradition of our ancestors. I feel
always happy to see Milag walking with his cathi ani dudke (toddy-tapping
implements). Sometimes one question haunts me: after Milag retires who will
give us soor (toddy) for making tasty sanna (local rice-cakes).
