Devised 23/4/2019 for an upcoming midwinter dances based on an international theme. We have members from both Malaysia and from Singapore, but all are united in their love of food. (1-8 Look at the durian hawker stall to see if it looks edible. 9-16 looking at the other hawker stalls and finding some friends. 17-24 eating the durian with them. 25-32 celebrating.) For Priscilla, Moira, and Nancy. Kristin and I lived in Singapore for several years.
