Supra Preparation

Ia’s birthday is the 18th of February and Ramazi’s is the 19th. They had a huge birthday supra at their house. It was quite the task to get ready for it and it was fun for me to watch (this was the first large scale supra that I had seen be prepared). A few days before Friday they started cleaning. Everything downstairs was moved and cleaned. Furniture was rearranged and tables were brought in for the 30 or so guests that were coming.

Tamriko, one of Ramazi’s neighbors, and her daughter came over Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday to help cook. A pig and two turkeys were killed and cooked. Beef was bought and cooked into stews and sausages. Around 20 Katchapuri and 20 loaves of bread were baked. Multiple types of salads with different vegetables were prepared. Two cakes and dozens of pastries were also made for the party.

Cooking went on nonstop Wednesday and Thursday from 10 in the morning till 8 at night. Friday they started even earlier and worked up until people started arriving for the party around 3:30. All of the teachers from school came, along with Pridoni and Luisa, and some of Ramazi and Ia’s friends.

The supra lasted for four or so hours. It was good times!
