How to Fry Groundnut using Garri

This video shows how to fry groundnuts or peanuts using garri (cassava flakes) as opposed to the regular use of sand. I start from using the raw peanuts and show you through the process of preparing deliciously made groundnuts. This video is made easy so you can try it in the comfort of your own kitchen. Please drop a comment, like and subscribe to my channel. You can also let me know what dish you will like me to prepare. I will be reading and responding to comments.

You know those times you are hungry for good food and don't know what to cook, or don't have the energy to cook? Or even the money? Well, here's a solution! I present to you Okro soup! Fast and easy to cook. I cook this soup like twice and week and it finishes on the same day. As cheap as it is, it is AMAZING!! In the video below you'll need less than N500 to prepare it (excluding beef) for two. Here:
Smoked fish - 100
Okro - 100
Ugu - 100
pepper, salt, palmoil, a seasoning cube and crayfish can not be more than N200 (inclucding gas sef)! lol! my point is that its relatively cheap.

He just might be your perfect guy

I watched a video on facebook. In the video, a guy is kneeling down and begging a lady while other guys around the scene are making fun of him for stooping so low for just a lady. He does not mind them and continues going after her to kneel down and beg while she is raining curses on him and even hitting him.

I don't know why he was begging because the video was inaudible so i can't say she should have given him what he wanted because i do not know what it was or the circumstances surrounding the situation. 

That brings me to my point, one thing about we ladies that we may not really know is that we unconsciously fall for proud guys, a guy that cannot kneel down before so many people to beg us. I mean yes, some part of us would like to be the girl whose guy is kneeling down and begging her but the kind of guys we are attracted to would not do that. Have you noticed that most times, the "perfect" ones are the heart breakers? That guy that has been begging you, has given you his "mumu" buttons, the one with an accent, the one that takes you out for lunch without asking anything in return, the one that thinks before he talks so as not to offend you, the one that is always apologising till you get irritated, the short guy, the ugly guy, the uneducated one most times that is the guy that would treat you like the queen you want to be treated as unfortunately, we are just attracted to the "Yoruba demons" and those are the ones with mood swings, the on and off ones, the ones that may dare to hit. I maybe partial, but i do believe its better for the man to do more of the loving while we love back. So take a second look at that guy, he may not be that bad. If he would love you everyday, take care of you and treat you right, maybe you should reconsider he just might be "your perfect guy".

Disclaimer: There is a thin line between this guy and an obsessed guy. Shine your eyes to know when its an obsession. 

Have you been in a relationship or married to a "Yoruba demon" (they don't actually have to be Yoruba) or do you know someone who has? Ever had a relationship with that guy that loved you too much? Drop the gist for me in the comment box lets interact.

Why I'm Tired of Makeup

Ignore the post title i'm not tired of makeup at least not yet. Once in a while, i still love to practice some dramatic makeup on my face. I'm just tired of everyone going into makeup artistry, do we not have many other skills to learn? What happened to graphics design? animation? photography? web design/programming, cooking, even interior decorations among others? Very soon, every girl would have learnt makeup and there would be no one to makeup anymore..lol! But seriously, please let us spread out.. I believe there is room for everyone if we are not doing the same thing... What other lucrative skills can people learn? In a country like Nigeria right now, we need to create the jobs ourselves not wait for it... Some people are ready to work but lack ideas, If you have some ideas you would like to share please please do. 

10 Reasons why people who spit in public are horrible humans

On my way to work at 5:30 am on Monday morning with my perfect makeup, i got on a bus and sat beside a man/pig (anyone you choose) who sat right by the window... while the bus was speeding on the express, he spat out the window and the wind blew the saliva back into the bus and right in my face... ..i screamed and he said "sorry" like its a normal thing. I was so disgusted, i felt like tearing my face off but what could i do? I cleaned it and moved on. Why are Lagosians so dirty? we see it as a very normal thing - spitting up and down like pregnant women. Something is smelling - spit! something is irritating - spit! they are regretful - spit! Someone is disrespectful - spit!.... smh.. I wish people were arrested for spitting in the public in Lagos but unfortunately, the police themselves would be the "chief-spitters". lol!

10 Reasons why people who spit in public are horrible humans

1. Spitting is forcing people to see what’s in your mouth.

If someone wanted to ever see the contents of your mouth, they would kiss you.

2. People who spit off of balconies are no better than birds who poop all over cars.

20th Century Fox

Just because you are spitting into water doesn’t mean people don’t still have to see it. The scene where Jack teaches Rose how to spit in Titanic is one of the most unwatchable parts, and Titanic is a movie where people drown and freeze and die.

3. The sound of people trying to hock a loogie is the closest sound to nails on a chalkboard that a human being can make.

Even the words “hock a loogie” are horrible.

4. People who spit in trashcans are people who don’t care that other people have to touch and put things in that trashcan.

instagram.com

Not to mention smell it. Spit is not odorless.

5. People who spit chewing tobacco in public are the type of people who think it is OK for everyone to see brown stuff coming out of their body.

instagram.com

6. Anyone who tries to spit into a can or a bottle is leaving an innocent looking can or bottle that ANYONE could accidentally drink from.

Anyone who tricks people into drinking their spit is a douche bag.

7. People who spit on the sidewalk are condemning their entire neighborhood to accidentally walking in their spit over. and. over.

This is should be illegal forever.

8. Anyone who does a spit take because they think it is hilarious is not actually a hilarious person.

NBC

I’m sorry you’re not awesome enough to come up with actual jokes, but spitting all over everything is just mean.

9. When people spit in sinks and just leave it there, it’s a sign that they do not care about anyone else in the entire building.

Via Twitter: @twtrless_justin

That is a lot of people to just not care about.

10. Most importantly, when you spit in public, you look like Justin Bieber.

Via Twitter: @emilymcdermont

Justin Bieber is a douche bag. Don’t look like Justin Bieber.
