I have two stories to tell you. The first is about a product I ordered from Jumia, and the second is about something I missed about home.
Are you like me that likes to buy things online rather than physically going to the market to check them out? You would have most certainly ordered some things that you did not like and would have had to request a return. Yes, this recently happened to me.
I ordered a shoe on Jumia that had a great rating and positive reviews, so I expected to be pleased with the quality, however it did not meet my expectations. The last shoe I received was terrible, but I didn't request a return because I paid a low price for the shoe and didn't expect it to be of high quality. That is the reason why I kept that shoe without returning it.
But I can't say the same for this shoe because the quality should have been far better given the price tag and the positive feedback I've read about it.
Here is the order picture below:
I bought this shoe with plans of rocking it to an outing but looks like it is a No for me. Right now, seems I would better go for more expensive shoes on Jumia if it means I would get a shoe of much better quality, comfort and feel.
Here are some pictures of the shoe I took with my phone camera:
The shoe was wonderful on the outside, but I didn't like how the sole felt. It was not of the same calibre as the shoe I had been using. I was anticipating a thicker sole, but it was surprisingly soft. If the sole had been robust and thick, I would not have asked for a return.
I didn't want to wear the shoe since it would leave a mark indicating I had worn it, and my return might not be accepted. But, in any case, I took advantage of the opportunity to photograph it.
THE SECOND STORY
I had forgotten how much I missed the taste of pepper soup since I returned home. It was difficult to get the thoughts out of my head because it was so simple to leave my house and walk a few steps away to my favourite pepper soup shop. I couldn't resist the temptation, so I went out to grab some pepper soup to eat.
I ordered goat meat and catfish pepper soup. The first two photographs are of the catfish I obtained, and the last two are of the goat meat. I was handed the head of a catfish; I don't like eating the head, but there were no other catfish available, so I had no choice but to eat what was offered.
I got a new sense of accomplishment after eating the dinner. Perhaps a dopamine sensation. I felt fantastic and realised how much I had missed. Since I don't have a favourite meal, I should make pepper soup my official favourite.
By the way, What meal do you always long to eat in particular?
