Read about Mary and Martha in Luke 10:38-42.

A shindwa is a small red fruit that grows in the ground so you can see the red shell poking through the surface, the plant stem grows about 3 feet (1 meter) tall and has broad leaves at the top of the stem . The fruit has a white bitter/tangy pulp with black seeds; a tasty treat if you could find one. I believe it is the young fruit of an African ginger plant, if anyone could verify that.
