It’s so easy to loudly announce that I don’t care that the year is halved already, because I feel like I wasn’t ready for the year and could care less that the year is running at a crazy speed, but that would be living in denial – the kind of denial you’ll see in people who are dating celebrities but the celebrities aren’t dating them. It’s hilarious and should bring my loved ones to be concerned for me; the Nigerian kind of concern.

Memories are what our times are made of. Some of life’s memories leave you longing to rewind the clock while others have you scampering to blank out and forget your pains. Some memories leave a physical mark while others pop up sweet and nostalgic at every turn.

I love vegetable soup. And you wanna know why? Well, you can achieve different tastes just by mixing and matching the leafy greens. A lot of Nigerian soups qualify for the phrase ‘vegetable soup’ but the most popular is the one with pumpkin(Ugu), waterleaf and Okazi leaves. In my mind’s eye, I’m seeing visions of hot yellow garri, steaming plates of soup with ‘correct’ pieces of stockfish, dried fish, chicken, beef. At 7:00 am on a working day? chai what a savoury temptation!
My 7 leaves vegetable soup came...

Having lived a few decades, I have seen that people want to be loved and appreciated. I have a senior colleague who is a...

If you thought the only thing that could be done with agbalumo is eating the entire juicy insides, throw the seeds away (or make sticky earrings as we used to as kids *giggles*) and make gum out of the chewy skin, you’ve got company.
It’s indeed true that the impossible is untried. Believe me, I never thought there was any other way to consume agbalumo (African Star Apple) than as described above. Imagine how shocked I was when I found that some very adventurous persons had been processing agbalumo, and not...

You know the saying “When life give you lemons, make lemonades out of them’? Well, when your garden or a very resourceful grandma or mother-in-law or even the grocery shop (discount sales) gives you peppers, make hot sauce.
Homemade hot sauce is another way to cut out on processed foods and it will only take 15 minutes to make.
Why hot sauce though? Today is Hot Sauce Day and lovers of spicy food are just getting fired up to have a hot day. Nigerians love spicy food, even though some folks...
