<h2>Gorintaku, hand decor</h2>
<h5>July 27, 2019</h5>

<p>Sumathi has this orange discoloration on her hands. At first I thought it was the residue from something she was cooking, I asked her and didn't quite understand the answer. It didn't go away after a couple days, so I started to think maybe it was some sort of disease or skin condition. I committed to getting an answer, and I came to understand that it had something to do with a plant called "gorintaku". Things still weren't clear, so Sumathi just took me out this plant in the back, and we started picking leaves from it.</p>
<p>When we got inside she put it in a blender with water and a little yogurt. I was back to theory number one, cooking residue! But then she sat me down and told me to hold out my hand, and after a few minutes we were here:</p>

<p>Things became clear about half way through that this was a form of Indian makeup/decoration used to festivals. I had to wait while it would imbue its color into my skin-- where it would stay for about two weeks. Sumathi proceeded to put the paste on the sides of her feet.</p>
<p>So ah, here it is! Here's my hand for the next few weeks:</p>
