I remember one-day last year when I satisfied my cravings. It became a day I can’t forget. Don't let people deceive you that you are a glutton or that you like food too much. When they say so, just acknowledge that you like food.
If you work for your money, nothing should stop you from spending on yourself. That day I was so stressed and hungry. I really wanted some rest but before I have one I have to satisfy my cravings. I work as a farmer but as a fish farmer. So that day I had to wash all the ponds, sort the fish, and pump water too. After sorting I took my bath.
I looked at the fish swimming happily in the pond, I smiled at them. Sighted the biggest one among them and got it with a net. I licked my tongue as I swallowed the last saliva in my mouth. I guess I am mostly imagining the meal I am going to take.
I prepared catfish pepper soup. Ooh. It cost me a little money after which I got myself a chill drink. I didn’t opt for just any soft drink but an expensive one that I have tasted for some time. Dished the meal and ate to satisfactory.
I could feel my cravings getting diminished gradually. And at some point, I was fully loaded. I don't know when I slept off to the cool breeze that blew on me.
With these, you should know that I like something good for myself. You will see me where they talk about good food. This is why I am doing my best to avoid poverty and live fine. You can't enjoy yourself when you don’t have money. You will only imagine and sink in that imagination.
There was another time I went to work on a poultry farm. We raised the birds from day-old to market size. Then after all of the stress, I was paid for the job done. I took 1/3 of my payment and got two big live chickens. Then when I got home I asked my sister to help me prepare it well. Wow! I got an active chivita drink and enjoyed it to the fullest.
The sleep I had that night was different from the ones I had before it.
That's the power of good food. Sometimes I meet with people who are just after quantity alone. So far the food is heaped like a mountain. That's when they get the appetite to eat. Oooh. One man's food is another man’s poison.
I don't care about quantity, but quality. If I could eat what I want at the right time then I am good to go. The day I bought a whole chicken all I ate was just one drumstick and the wing and that's enough.
I am used to eating my meals when I am hungry. I can't hold on to hunger for long. But that was when I was still young as a child under my parents' care. Life has shown me the difference and taught me how to be resistant to hunger. Now I can do without having breakfast and lunch. But in the evening you will notice it from my reactions and actions. My body will be vibrating 😂 and my eyes will change 😂.
Food is life. I remember some days while I was at university with my brother. There are times when we won't have anything to eat. Maybe we just take biscuits and water. But as soon as we get any money the first thing we would do is to get something nice.
I am a good chef. This is why you can call me a food lover. I don't care. I know how to cook and I am proud of myself. So eating food outdoors is not always satisfactory to me. I prefer preparing my food myself even if it's not as rich in ingredients as I wanted. But the fact that I prepared it myself is everything for me.
I will cook good food and both of us will eat like no tomorrow. We make sure we try to recover from the days when hunger dealt with it and also prepare ahead for the day's hunger will deal with us again.
