I Did it All by Myself - No Shame at all

I can't believe it, all of it is gone! I had ordered a portion of yam porridge, plantain porridge and some vegetable to go with it with the thought that one may taste better than the other and at least I will be compensated with whichever tasted better.

I whipped out my phone and took a hasty picture and was ready to post a not-so-good review on google. But, guess what? the first taste of each spoon sent me to heaven and back!
I tried it the second time to make sure that my tastebuds weren't playing tricks on me, but alas, no! it wasn't. My eyes literally lit up in seconds and I could feel how dilated they were from a combination of emotions that ran through me; surprise, shock and joy.

Ordinarily, I would munch down a few spoonfuls of food and totally lose interest. Most of the time it looked so good I forgot to take pictures for my reviews, this one was quite different. it tasted divine! Did they change cooks or something, were they celebrating something I wasn't aware of?  I am a regular here but this meal was the most satisfying experience. Omg!

I was still in utter disbelief when I was about to take the last spoonful of porridge.
Now, I'm looking at my empty plate in satisfaction after I was sure I did a good job clearing it. Ready to leave and sweating profusely on the insides of my wig (even though the Ac units were on full blast) I realized that I couldn't move, it started to sink in  I AM OVERFED, at the moment, I'm feeling like a huge sack of (Garri) cassava flakes stuck on a restaurants seat.
"This food was really good", I thought to myself. "What kind of sorcery is this?" I wish you could see the number of flips and breakdance I did in my head.

As I speak to you, I am picking my teeth with a toothpick, with one button on my jeans trouser open to accommodate my tummy and staring out of the window and thinking how wonderful the world is.

How to make Lemon and Honey Tea

Making tea using plants and herbs has always been a thing for me because I know it contains a healthy dose of nutrients our body needs in its purest form. This is TRULY SATISFYING. You can use and citrus fruit of your choice and you can make a variety of homemade drinks from it. Have you tried it before? Please leave me a line or two in the comments

Tell the truth - does your watch really work?

Which are you? The one who has a variety of useless watches that are now makeshift bracelets or the one who would dutifully take them for repairs when the battery is flat. If you ask where I belong, I'd say with those who have turned their wristwatches into some sort of 'Wrist ornament'. I don't even own a clock, the time doesn't even read correctly in my car!  The only accurate time would be the one found on my phone - that's it!  Is there something wrong with us? Why is it that almost everyone tells time using their phones, is technology the problem? I remember those good old days... way before mobile phones and way before the computers, when our wristwatches/clocks were the only alternatives, if you didn't have one, you were screwed!  I had a wall clock, I panicked if something ever happened to it... it was like living in another reality; where you were stuck in your world and the rest of humanity were in another, you felt completely cut off m...

What is your body count?

That was the question I was asked today...The evening was going quite well for me until it went from "This has gotta be the best night ever" to "Oh no he didn't!". My facial expression changed in that instant from a smile to outrage: it became glaring that this question was off-limits. I moved around uneasily in my seat; I began thinking about how best to address the situation without coming off as the 'Crazy b***h!'  Peter was a good friend, and oftentimes we would discuss random topics of interest and argue endlessly- they were resolved amicably each time but this one wasn't one of those.  I honestly don't know how we went from discussing random things to, "So, do you mind sharing how many people you have had sexual encounters with?" I was in shock for a few seconds, If I had been drinking at the time I would have choked on it and spat it out in shock! Why was this piece of information important, why would anyone want to know the numb...
