ZIKALICIOUS

It was Mixed feelings, my flight had been booked and my meeting was set for two days ( although I would have liked  to have spent  a few more days to experience and explore) So, It was my first time in South Africa and I had heard a lot of stories about its history and was eager to see all I could during my short stay I arrived Johannesburg around 2am South-African time and was at time jet lagged and needed to get some rest Walking throughb the terminal was like walking through in a  haze ….my legs were so heavy, it felt like I  dragged bricks along with me Finally, I spotted my pick up driver holding the up a sign with my name on it. He was so kind to help carry my luggage South Africa was well lit but I had heard from the driver that there what he called ” Load Sharing ” (Power outage) and there was always a media announcement if there was going be any outage of any sort( where I come from that felt  like they were pampered a lot!  LOL…but it was the right thing to do)

Variety they say is the spice of life, you can never get enough of the different variety of rich African delicacies  available in West Africa I took a short to trip to Ghana and immediately wanted to try every dish available within the short time frame. these three dishes were all I had time for and must say …they are all very tasty! Jollof rice, Chicken Kebab with Ghanaian Chili peppers Ingredients: 2 pounds Chicken 3 Onions 12 Tomatoes 15 Kpakpo shito (hot green peppers) 1 tablespoon blend of spices (ginger, garlic, onion, bay leaves, cloves, rosemary) 3 tablespoons tomato puree 1 desertpoon curry 4 cups rice 2 cups cooking oil 2 maggi cubes Salt Start by cutting  chicken into equal parts, remove skin and wash thoroughly and set aside NEXT marinate Chicken with   spices: 1 maggi cube  and pinch of salt.

The moment you think you are going to conquer the world  is when you believe you can do anything ...but you are not going to achieve that eating every chocolate bar,  and greasy meal offered you ..anyway lets talk about my new conquest and ambition to become the next  weight lifting Olympic champion So  I joined this new gym with lots of  dedicated people trying to loose some weight or maintain what they already had..truth be told I was impressed with some of the ladies ...the expression  on their faces was that of sheer determination, you know ...that  kind of look that says "that girl can't take my man away from me"  and oh! I had a little chit chat with some of the ladies and discovered some had  the warning  ticket that told them to GET BACK IN SHAPE OR I'M  NOT TOUCHING THAT!!! or YOU BETTER LOOSE ALL THAT FAT OR I WOULD START LOOKING THE OTHER WAY...... Most of the guys were young, most of them getting their sexy on or just in that space to show off

I love good looking Men... I really do, you know all those amazing qualities; Smooth skin, clean nails, a Man with a sexy smile, great physique ....I know I'm not the only one who is attracted to men like this But what if your Man spends hours at the spa tending to his precious body and never misses any appointment? What if he also spends an awful amount of time everyday at the gym and honestly speaking.... sometimes when he is gone for long periods on end I would think he was with another girl only to discover he was working out all night with his buddies HE SPENDS OVER 3 HOURS GETTING DRESSED AND READY FOR THE DAY An hour to shave, another hour for a bath, 30 minutes to apply cream on his luscious skin, the other 30 minutes for powder, lip balm and time out in front of the mirror taking selfies? Does it make him gay? What if he has Teddy bears in his car and home and loves feminine fragrance....IS HE GAY!!!

Have you ever wondered what the world would be like without 'GOSSIP', I can just imagine a bunch of people smiling all day and the others who have taken 'gossip' as a part time or full time jobs.. either bored or fustrated but smiling anyway...lol Was going through my phone for updates and I saw a post on a friends 'PM' and she was talking about her encounter with some drama queen and how this individual liked to talk about her and it reminded me of my own personal experience and what I heard about myself lately, usually I didn't have any kind of reaction when things like that happen, one might expect I start yelling, pull at my hair fuming and breathing fire..but I stop to think how much it cost me to make my precious hair ,buy the hair piece and how long I sat at the salon to get it done and quickly changed my mind, besides I would hate to mess up my make up. Instead I end up feeling sorry for them and thought how sad and lonely these people really

Be sincere! I know you feel that way sometimes..you sometimes wish you can smack the taste out of their mouth on the busy streets of Lagos. it's annoying how many people don't care for their safety, let alone the safety of other road users. Don't get me wrong, most of the time these aren't drivers under the influence; it's either caused by plain ignorance or stupidity. Certain factors drive an unqualified driver in search of a job especially when they hear the pay is good.  A good-paying job does not equal having the right skill set to apply. Unfortunately, they scheme their way in with the hopes to learn on the job. Okada/motorcycle and Keke riders, danfo buses, and major public transport drivers have gradually turned driving experiences into nightmares. I recall getting a call one fine morning for a job at a recording studio and I figured taking a bike would help me beat traffic and get me there on time, I got a bike almost immediately - wrong decision  The firs
