That story of Ms. Polly and the white woman is really funny. It rniemds me of the beef, iron and wine" story. My aunt was very good at telling hilarious stories.As a matter of fact Panamanians of West Indian descent can tell some good old jokes that will make you laugh so hard till tears come to your eyes. My aunt told us once that a woman went to the doctor because she was feeling weak and the doctor prescribed her "Beef, Iron and Wine Tonic". This tonic used to be sold in many West Indian pharmacies in Colon for anemia and all type of maladies. I do not know if they still sell it.The woman understood the doctor's prescription to mean something else  ;she bought a nice cut of beef, cooked it, then began ironing clothes and finally she started dancing and whining to a calypso beat. Another story that I heard was about a Bardadian man who was a laborer during the construction days. He applied to work and a white man wanted to give him a hard time. The white man knowing that the Barbadian man was illiterate told him to spell the word ink to be hired. The Barbadian man became indignant realizing that he could not spell the word ink;he then replied ,"I -ain- Kay, I-ain-Kay" . The white man surprised gave the Bajan the job.I have never had Rundon. I will try making it. Your stories have a way of bringing back memories, especially opening up the locks of those lost or hidden trunks where our most cherished and rich memories reside.Un cordial saludo,Anita
