It gives me great pleasure to read Dominic Fernandes's postings, evoking memories of childhood visits to Goa. I can visualize the kitchen, blackened by soot and smoke from the fire, and the "ponti" casting flickering shadows. The kitchen as described by Dominic could well have been my Grandparents kitchen, except for a window near the "Nanni" which overlooked the well, and from where water was drawn with a copper cosso on a coir rope on a pulley. Pleasant memories of the days gone by. I wish Dominic, with his treasure trove of information, would compile all his memories into a book, with pictures of the various pots and utensils. Thank you ever so much Dominic ! Vivian A. D'Souza
