Decided to put my culinary skills to work once again... my second attempt in making fried rice 😁🙈 (issa big deal) Growing up at home in Port Harcourt.. I dreaded kitchen work..(Cooking)...I avoided it like a plague! My mum knew not to involve me cos I will fail woefully... the only thing then I could do was boil water and maybe make  eba.. even to boil rice...'I sucked' It didn't really matter because my sisters were available to do the needful..so I will gladly do the other house chores and avoid the kitchen! Found myself in the hospitality business at some point...  in the garde manger section.... took awhile for me to enjoy it..still didn't like cooking though! Fast forward to a few years later..I moved to Lagos and had to fend for myself... the friend I stayed with at the time didn't care for home cooked meal..and I had already been spoiled at home ...to adjust to the Lagos style of eating anything and anywhere took a toll on me and I eventually had t...

I went for a movie premiere over the weekend..as my friends and I walked up to the red carpet..it was a bit busy with celebs and co..waiting to be photographed.

She goes ...why don't you go on the carpet so the photographers can take you.. I obliged and the next thing all the photographers acted like...they can't be bothered... *Like Seriously* they all turned away..looking for the next celeb to take! Well I jejely removed myself from the carpet..lol (no shame) cos I can hold my own any day...I didn't feel bad or anything but my friend was so pissed and couldn't take it..so she walked off... I thought it was funny! So because I am not yet a super star...they are looking at me gross....it's all good! I believe my turn is coming..so no pressure Then it will be my...

See below..... A Sudanese court has overturned the death sentence of a 19-year-old woman who killed her husband after he allegedly raped her. Noura Hussein was instead sentenced to five years in jail, according to her lawyer. CNN reported that the court ordered her family to pay $25,000 in “blood money” to the man’s family.
