Well you know....
I've been away from home for a long long time so I don't get to go hmong eatings anymore.
NOt only that but my father's side of the family, they and we've all gone away from that sorta stuff so when I did go to different states...
It was shocking for me to see hmong men still eating at the table and the ladies doing the serving and refilling of food. This was...maybe 2 years ago? or a year ago. I can't recall but I just remember thinking "wow, I can't belive this is still happening?!?!" But talking to that girl ... appearantly it still does.
But it really shocked me becuase she was a pretty young girl so I thought she wouldn't even be in that kinda enviroment anymore.. but oh wells! Guess it still happens.
Well I now that I think about it... yeah it's still pretty prevelant.. I did go to another hmong place a while back.. maybe like 4-5 years ago. and they were doing the same thing too sorta...
The men was eating at the table and the women... well they was in the kitchen eating whatever was in the kitchen.
It was so weird...
My part of the family... I always see the men and women all eating together....so ... yeah, to see this still happening still surprises me.
