Everyday that breaks opens the door to a new story. My day broke to a new story, though some are familiar while some are entirely new. You will like to know how I spent my day and it is filled with much vibes.
I sincerely appreciate this particular twist to the engagement challenge. It is one of it's kind and thanks to both the steemit team and my dear community for such initiative. I therefore invite @okere-blessing, @patjewell and @Sofian88 to please come and take part in this amazing contest
It is now time for me to take the contest hints one after the other. Please just follow along because you are going to be amazed at the end due to how interesting my day was.
The weather was bright and sunny unlike the previous day that was rainy. In fact, the blue sky with the silver lining caught my attention and I took this picture.
look at how beautiful the sky looked in the morning
The sun became too hot between 10am and 3pm before it drizzled. I thought it was going to rain but it didn't. The drizzling didn't stop movement either and as such, I can say that it was a bright weather that allowed people to go about their daily businesses unlike when it rains.
Within the day, I was able to buy few things like the baking powder I use for my Nigerian buns (750 Nigerian Naira which is equivalent to 6 steem) and food items for the household because we ran out of most necessities at home.
As for the food I eat, I will like to share the dinner with you. Breakfast and lunch was nothing serious anyways.
About my dinner, I eat chicken pepper soup and white rice. I prepared them myself.
The white rice was just boiled with salt alone.
The chicken pepper soup was prepared with
1kg of chicken
6pcs of traditional nutmeg (ehuru by the Igbos and African nutmeg in English)
Cameron pepper to taste
Seasoning cubes
Crayfish
Salt
Ginger and garlic
Cent leaf and utazi (small quantities)
At the end, the dinner looked this way and very yummy and delicious
So, that was what I ate for dinner. It is healthy due to the natural ingredients that I used like the ehuru and the leaves.
Ehuru for instance is good for the heart because it doesn't contain any cholesterol even though it has fat in it. It improves libido and stimulates sex both in men and women. It is known to releaf cold and flu and good for everyone even to pregnant women. The great taste and aroma adds lustre to the food. In fact, hardly will I prepare pepper soup without it because that is a major spice in my pepper soup. It is a natural seed.
The leaves are also medicinal. The utazi has a bitter taste to control the sweetness and the scent leaf has its own flavour. All combined to give the pepper soup an excellent taste and aroma with lots of other benefits.
The day was filled with a lot of activities. First, I worked in the communities here in steemit before dashing out to prepare my sweet Nigerian buns. Yes, I do this daily this days.
As for the Buns, I mixed the dough with the recipes which included the flour, the sugar, nutmeg, and other ingredients. Then allowed it for at least 30 minutes before deep frying
I added a little onions in the oil to release it's flavour. This buns is liked by all who ate it and it doesn't take time to finish once it is taken out for sale.
Sometimes I fry twice a day especially when there is premier league or champions league. While going to the viewing center, I go with it along with soft drinks. But I only fried once this day because of our Bible study in the evening.
Next in line was going for my workout. I am still on it. Keeping fit is a nice business.
I was assigned to do Russian Twist with Cones |
---|
This program involves seating with only your buttocks with your both legs raised up and then you hang your body backwards. It helps to burn the fats at the lower abdomen and helps with balancing of the body. You have to pick the cones one by one to the other side until you are done and you must twist your upper body as you pick and drop the cones. The cones were 20 in number. Check out the video below
I did this program in 4 rounds. Then other programs followed before I finally went home by past 9am. It was fun!
On getting home, I took my shower, practiced craft of bag making with my niece before going to the office. Nothing much happened at the office except working in steemit. I tried to catch some sleep but couldn't.
By 5pm, we went for our Bible study program where I personally learned to be humble and attentive so as to learn from others just as Elisha learnt from Elijah (2 Kings chapters 1 and 2). This Bible chapters in the bracket was the main focus of the study. Other lessons were made to stand out. It was spiritually enriching. Go to jw.org for more information about our meetings and place of meetings. Try to attend and see that you will enjoy the Bible programs that are held each week.
We came back by 8pm and prepared dinner. Though late for dinner but nothing to worry.
The funniest aspect of my day was dancing after my workout programs. We danced to the music by Kizz Daniel -Cough. I and other friends there danced to the bearing and laughed out loud at the dance steps. It was very funny!
The news that the buns I made has finished even before I came back from workout was also very exciting. I didn't expect it to finish that quick.
Well, the most annoying part was when I dialed my niece's number to tell her to take the clothes we hung outside in because the rain was drizzling and she didn't pick and later the phone was switched off. I felt annoyed but she took it in before the rain on her own and her phone battery was dead because we have not had electric light for 2 days. I was ok when she explained.
There was no special events except the ones I already told above
I felt so great, being able to accomplish much with excitement, and then wrapped the day with spiritual instructions and that yummy white rice/chicken pepper soup. And the weather was friendly.
I have been able to give attention to all the tips raised by this contest through which I explained how my day went. Hope you enjoyed the diary. Thanks dear diary for reading till the end.
All images and video are my personal properties taken and recorded with my Techno Camon 16. At
The workout images and video were taken at The Ibibio museum, Udo Udoma Avenue
The other pictures were taken at my place of residence, Mbiabong
This is my introductory post here
You had a very eventful day over there. The chicken pepper soup was quite inviting, unfortunately, it must have finished at the moment.
I have heard of the Utazi leaf over time and how medicinal it is but I have always used scent leaf for my pepper soup cooking, I grew up with scent leaf used for cooking and it's been part of me. I may have to consider Utazi next time.
The production of the buns and workout, everything makes up a rich diary game entry. Thanks for sharing with us, ma'am @ngoenyi.

Thanks a lot my boss. Yes, the pepper soup is already finished.
A little of utazi leaf in your food will work wonders. You can use it to control the taste of noodles and you can use it for local source for yam, plantain and cocoyam. You will really like it. If you want to use it for source, you just need to pound it along with fresh pepper, onions and then add palm oil and salt. You have your wonderful source. Try it and thank me later.
I appreciate your wonderful comment. Thanks a lot @fredquantum

It is one ingredient that is 750 and not buns. That is the cost of the Baking powder if you really read the post.
