the breakfast and culture

I felt going to the shepherds in the morning would be the best thing to do. I went to them and I found everyone home. Four tents in total, they were distant relatives.
I met the first family where the couple was an old couple. they were performing their daily morning routine, wherein the lady was cooking food. She was making rotli's for the breakfast. She had an earthen 'tawa' and a chula within a corner of the tent used some wooden sticks to light it. The tawa was had a crack but it functioned well. The utensils were made of aluminium and steel. She had steel pots to bring in water. She had to fill in water from Kudasan a village far off i.e. 2 kms from the place of her residence. They did not have a source of water nearby. She used to the same water for all purposes washing and drinking. She offered me the breakfast with the buttermilk. It was a very nice rotli with ladyfinger cooked in buttermilk. This was a gujrati dish i suppose. but it was really tasty. She felt good when i ate it and only then did she open up and giving more information. I promised her to come and see the butter milk making process which i did later.
She wore a Banjaran dress(Ghagra, Choli and a duppatta covering her head). The mangalsutra was made in rajasthani style. The frail woman was very much aware of the people around. As soon as her mom in law cme, she covered her face.
They had charpai/khat to sit on or sleep at night. The men normally used it to sleep at night.
The women slept on the ground. The elderly person was sitting on it. He was a well built with white dhoti and kurta and special pink turban. He wore a huge 'kada' in his hand. He was first skeptical about what i was doing there but later spoke a lot.
The information: Their family hailed from Rajasthan. They went back home only thrice to four times a year. His kids were studying in rajasthan. They travelled the belt of Rajasthan, Gujrat, and maharashtra and back in the search of green pastures for their sheep. he had around 200 sheep. He had counted them. This was an approximate figure.
They supplied milk as a source of income. They did not have a place of their own to stay. They just settled anywhere. And kept moving as and when required. The amount rains in the farms might make them shift somewhere else within two days is an assurity.
