Childhood Memories of Roasting Sweet Potatoes |
|
As a child, I used to love roasting sweet potatoes with my friends. It was
always such a fun activity!
One day, I took my buddies to go roast sweet potatoes. However, we didn't have
any at home, so we decided to sneak into someone else's field to steal some.
After looking around and seeing nobody, we started digging up sweet potatoes. We
managed to get about four or five of them, and then we quickly looked around
again to make sure nobody was watching us before leaving.
Once we had everything we needed, we started roasting the sweet potatoes. We
first used bricks to create a small fire pit, then added a bunch of grass to it.
However, no matter how much we tried, we couldn't get the fire started. We ended
up throwing in a few pieces of paper, which did the trick and made the fire big
and scary. We then added another brick on top of it to help control the flames.
Once the fire settled down a bit, we threw in the raw sweet potatoes. After
waiting for about an hour, we thought they were ready and decided to take them
out. However, we didn't know how to do it and ended up discussing our options.
That's when my friend, Er Ya, suggested, "Let's put out the fire first, and then
take out the sweet potatoes!" We all agreed.
Finally, we managed to take the sweet potatoes out of the fire. Suddenly, a man
appeared out of nowhere and asked us, "What are you kids doing here?" I was
terrified and immediately shouted to my friends, "We have to run! Something's
not right!" The man yelled at us to stop, but we just kept running until we were
far away from him. When we came back to look for our sweet potatoes, they were
gone. We guessed that the man saw them and decided to take them for himself.
Looking back on that day, I still remember the thrill and excitement of roasting
sweet potatoes with my friends. Despite the unexpected encounter, it remains a
cherished childhood memory. |
