Bringing Rice to Families who have very little

James has met these villagers several times on his trips to Kabala. They have always been very kind to him and he is always happy to provide rice for this beautiful family. The father of the family has promised me to provide some Palm Wine on my next visit. I've never tried it and I'd like to at least taste it - carefully, since I've heard its tremendously potent.
