Greetings to you all!!馃馃

Yesterday being Wednesday, I had a lot of movements, from here to there and didn't had the chance to eat anything. since it was Wednesday and our church usually observes fasting on Wednesdays, I smartly turned the day to a fasting day for me鉁岋笍.

I returned home around 5:30pm, so famished, looking like I haven't eaten since Christmas last year. I checked what's in kitchen and no reasonable food stuff was there, there was rice but I'm not the type that goes with "mix rice in pot and eat"(casual Jollof rice), I like to eat my rice in a standard way. I opted in for 'swallow' because that kind of hunger could only be quenched by heavy food.

I drafted out my budget to prepare a nice egusi soup and everything amounted to N2,500.

There was no cash with me, there was no cash in my bank (fiat), the only thing left for me is to do a 'quickie' trade to get N2,500.

I entered blocktrade, moved to Remitano to convert to fiat and this app decided show me shege馃槶.

My 2,500 got seized and I almost cried, they said they were having issue transferring the money into my bank. I waited and waited but couldn't hold the rumbling stomach anymore, I quickly went to a nearby shop to get Peak Milk for strength (peak milk gives strength 馃檮).

The fund got released after 36mins of waiting and I headed straight to the POS center to get the cash because market women don't accept transfer.

Guys, immediately I got there, the POS lady said N400 charges to withdraw N1,000 new notes. "Haaaa!" I exclaimed so loud.

I thought she was joking but she keened to her words. And the worst part was that, I didn't calculated the Withdrawal fes on the earlier drafted Budget.

I was left with no option than to pay.

After I collected the money, I moved straight to the market with a thickened face and not ready to smile at any of the market women.
Immediately I got there, they started calling me as usual to come and patronize them and that scene irritates me馃槝...I had plan to get a babe so I would stop going to market...but babe had refused to come馃槩.

I bought the foodstuffs and left to my house in a jiffy.

Trust me na, a nice cool, the soup got ready within 40mins and I didn't waste time to fill my stomach.

I won't brag but the soup was so sweet and I needed someone to eat with me, so as to get some accolades but there was none馃ぇ.

I made sure I filled my stomach to the brim and I got pregnant on the spot, I had to do "breath in, breathe out" before I could get up from the seat.
Time was 7:00pm already.

To hell with hunger!

Today's morning...

There was electricity, so I woke up early to press some clothes and before I could remember to warm the soup, it has soured馃挃.

"I can't throw away this soup that I passed through stress to cook. Where do I get the cash to cook another one?" I soliloquized鈽猴笍.

I decided to revive the soup back to its original state and it worked.

Only few persons know how to revive a soured soup back to its original state and these people that know how to do that, are the the ones brought up in the village... I pity the rich kids馃

You're a rich kid and want to know how to revive a soured soup? Please use Google (if it's in Google sef馃槀), I won't teach you馃寶
