shi-yaki-imo! Ishi-yaki-imo! The singsong cry of the sweet potato peddler would echo again and again, resounding into every home on the street. Children and mothers, lured by the sweet smell, would run out to buy the simple treat from the hand-pulled cart, heavily laden with sweet potatoes buried in hot rocks. I remember, too, as a young child being lured by the beauty of the cry, warming my hands over the rocks in the cart and biting into the smoky sweetness of roasted yams.
