With all the repartee about peaches and mangoes yesterday, I figure I might get away with volunteering that a commercial fisherman friend of ours came knocking on the door an hour ago bearing gifts. Four humongous king crab! Yum - part of today’s catch. Just boiled them in salt water in 2 big pots and the results are in the refrigerator awaiting my decision as to how we are going to consume them this evening. Probably a crab salad since it is quite hot today. Now if I only had some fresh peaches and mangoes for dessert!

OMG I love crab...It is one of the things I miss about living near a coast.

Look what I've found:

“Afrikander - a white native of Cape Province who is a descendant of Dutch settlers and who speaks Afrikaans”

Mombasa/Kenya were once controlled by the Dutch. If the Afrikander was used for WHITE natives what was used for black?

The evolutions of words certainly is fascinating.
