show them a picture of my "bahay kubo" coop. It should spark them up and get them talking
A Bahay Kubo is a Nipa Hut - the traditional Filipino House.
There is a song that my kids sing and then point to all the fruits and veggies in the market
Filipino Version Bahay Kubo Bahay Kubo kahit munti Ang Halaman doon ay sari sari. Singkamas at talong, Sigarilyas at mane, Sitaw bataw patani, Kundol patola, upo’t kalabasa, At saka may’ron pang labasnos, mustasa. Sibuyas, kamatis, bawang at luya. Sa paligidligid nito’y panay na linga. English Version Nipa hut My nipa hut, although it’s small The plants are diverse Turnips and eggplants, Winged beans and peanuts, String beans, edible pots, lima beans, White melon, gourd, white pumpkin and squash, And still there are more, radish, mustard, Onions, tomatoes, garlic and ginger, All around are lush sesame plants.
Nipa hut is the basic Filipino architectural type of house. It’s commonly found in the northern part of the Philippines, the roof is made from woven coconut husks or nipa leaves while the walls are made of bamboo and other natural materials that is commonly found in the forest. Some bahay kubo are made of bamboo stilts in order to protect from wild animals. Communal space is very important in the Filipino families, to be surrounded by the people all the time regardless of all the chaos. The Children may be playing around, Lolas or Grand Mother playing cards and Titas or Aunties chismising (gossiping) but these are common and comforting, thus Filipinos have a fear of being alone.

I found much the same thing in Thailand back in the early 70's, extended families were the normal from what I seen.
I'm wondering what the neighbors think? Are you like the infamous chicken mogul? Has Bernie enlisted his cousins to patrol the grounds from chicken poachers?
