Constantly

He tells me I am beautiful. Constantly.
It weirds me out. Constantly.
I tell him that. Constantly.
Now he won't compliment me constantly.
I would now crave for it. Constantly.

Feeling: Lazy. Wanna be in bed all day Time : 6:44a.m Lol this post was scheduled for a day in May, but NYSC decided to scatter it. So, I'm just writing it. If you're Nigerian say "yo!" More specifically, if you're Yoruba say "ayyeee." This post is going to be about our culture and one very important aspect of it - Greetings and Respect . I hear that the Yoruba culture is probably the most respectful culture not only in Nigeria, but in the whole world. I wouldn't disagree with that if it's true. The proper way for a girl to greet elders is for her to go down on her knees and for the guys, they prostrate. Imagine during the trad wedding, going to greet the girl's parents and not fully prostrating!!!!  Just know you have forfeited the girl. Growing up, my parents weren't crazy crazy fans of going down fully on your knees to greet them in the morning, though I remember one time, when I was probably 12 or 13, my daddy said we s...

Creamy Chicken Soup For The Soul. RECIPE :)

Time: 11:13 am Feeling: Cold Over the weekend, I made some creamy chicken soup for myself and my brother. When I was in Uni, it was something I always made, because it's super easy to make. However, there were two things I didn't like in all the soups I made: they were always so flipping thick, and there were always surprises (lumps). This time around, I did things differently. I made use of some: Leftover chicken bbq, 10 green beans 2 sausages 5 small carrots 2 eggs (whites) 2 and a half tablespoons of flour 1 garlic clove 1 onion. 1 tablespoon of margarine. Salt. Thyme 2 Seasoning cubes. Some evaporated milk Pretty basic ingredients. I know, right? So, first things first: Shred your chicken. Slice your sausages into circles, they shouldn't be cut so thinly. Wash your carrots and slice into thick circles. Boil your carrots for 5-6 minutes. I boiled my carrots and eggs in the same pot. When the carrots were just right; somewhere in be...

It's Been a Year! I'm back!

Some days ago, I had loads of ideas on how I would word today's post, and now I'm at a loss for words. It's been a little over a year since I have written here, and being back here feels like when you go back to visit the house you grew up in. Do you know that feeling where you pass by your old neighbourhood and remember all the fond memories? That's what it feels like for me. The only difference is that I plan to stay here for a really long while.  So much has happened in the past year: • I turned 24. • I opened a new page on IG, @fifiskitchenn where I post food recipes and pictures. (It makes me so happy). • I spent one year at my Job. • I cut my hair several times. So, you see, quite a number of things have happened, every other thing is pretty much the same. I genuinely missed writing here and sharing my thoughts with everyone. I have two places where I can share my thoughts as freely as I want to, and this is one of them. What have you been up to...
