See that massive stain on the pocket of my favorite piece of oi-wear? That's from a pat of butter I was hoarding. Butter is unavailable in the South, only thing that is available is a margarine spread. It's just no substitute for real butter. Here in Khartoum butter abounds.I wasn't planning on taking the pat back to Juba with me--let's be reasonable here, I'm not that out of touch yet--I was just going to savor it in the privacy of my own room. In the privacy of my own room where I can eat butter without the interference of bread or other like items. Just gobbling straight butter.
I do hope I can get the grease stain out of this shirt. It took one for the team.
Dawn liquid dish soap is is about the only thing that will really work according to my friend Jane W. who read this before I did. Temporarily, you could try some shampoo in the hotel bathroom.
ReplyDeleteHa! Resorting to eat pats of butter on their lonesome?
