Dear Diary,
You can't believe what I was able to accomplish today. To me, it is overwhelming. I never knew I still have such energy in me.
Restarting My Handkerchief production
I woke up by 3am and worked in steemit as much as I could before dashing out to the seating room where my weaving machine is. It's been long I operated it last and because I want to restart my handkerchief production, I had called the engineer that usually serve it for me on Monday. He came and worked on it but there was no electricity to check it out.
This morning, i decided to check it out since there was electricity. And guess what, it is in good condition. I then decided to weave some handkerchief and sale. Haha, can I remember how to operate the machine again after a year I left it? Can I be able to fix the trade if it cut? Those questions filled my mind but I don't relent efforts in anything I am determined to accomplish.
When I started the weaving, the machine gave me tough time but I won. Yes, I was able to weave and finally produced 9 packs of handkerchief. I weaved with 2 different colors, royal blue and white.
These are 2 packs out of the 9. Blue and white, well packed | this is me and my machine, trying it out |
I was through by 7:32am and I needed to get ready for my workout. I got ready and left with 3 packs of handkerchief so that I can market it. I was able to market and sale them to my workout mates. Wow! It's really going to be awesome when I finally mass produce and supply as before.
My workout ended by 10am and I returned home imediately so as to go monitor the electrician that is fixing light for me in my new business office. Oh, I didn't let you know dear diary, about the new office I rented. Just listen, ok? Am sorry, I forgot but let me make it up to you.
Fixing My Newly Rented Office/Business Space
My former steemit office is just what it is, an office and not suitable for other businesses like buying and selling. That was why I couldn't add other things to it. The rent will expire this coming October but I don't intend to renew it because I want to restart my production business.
I had already paid for another office at another location close to my house and it is more of a business area. The rent started running this September and as such, I need to fix sometimes before I start up. I paid 96000 naira (equivalent of 739 steem) for a year.

I hired an electrician to help me connect to electric light there. I also hired a painter to help with the painting. I needed to be around to supervise the job and so that was what I did after my workout.
The work already started since Saturday. They are at the finishing stage today. I had paid 20500 naira (equivalent of 157 steem) for both the painting and the electrical work. I bought wires, changeover caught out and some sockets. I also bought a bucket of paint. Then I paid the labourers.
This is the electrician fixing the wires. The painter is done already |

This place is located at Mbiabong u-turn Oron Road, Uyo Akwaibom State. It is close to the market. The space will serve for both steemit training and where I can display my products after production. I will also weave clothes for clients because I will take my weaving machine there.
After the work was done, I lucked up the place and went home to complete other things. Just keep reading.
Production Of Dish Wash
I was into this year's back when I was in my former city of residence until I changed city. I had produced it once last year just for house use but now, I want to add it to what I will sale in my office.
I produced the soap now before the office is ready because I want to create the awareness beforehand. I want to show it to some people. I will give out some samples. That's my market strategy. My target audience is hotels, eateries/ restaurants and supermarkets. I will package them in 4 liters. I am yet to get the label ready.
The soap was ready in no time because I already know how to produce it. I am familiar with the chemicals and at what stage to add them. I used lemon color for it. Look at the final product at the picture below
that is me with the soap. That is 40 liters that I produced. |

Frying puff puff For My Kids
They requested that I buy puff puff for them. I wasn't comfortable buying it outside because I don't trust the oil they used for it. Since I have the floor and some other ingredients at home, I decided to get just few other ingredients and prepare it for them because it doesn't take time and no stress.
I got the ingredients ready.
Floor | 2 cups |
---|---|
Vagetable oil | 75 cl for frying |
Sugar | 1/4 cups plus 1 teaspoon for yeast |
Yeast | 2 teaspoon |
Salt | 1teaspoon |
Nutmeg | 1 teaspoon |
Warm water | 11/4 cups of water |
Dry pepper | 2 teaspoon |
I then proofed the yeast with 1/2 cup of water, I added 1 teaspoon of sugar, mixed and set aside for 5 to 6 minutes.
While the yeast was still proofing, I sieved the floor and added all the dry ingredients and mixed thoroughly.
Then, added the remaining water along with the yeast mixture and mixed thoroughly. Then I covered it and allowed to rest for 1 hour.
I then placed the frying pan on the fire with the oil and fried the puff puff in batches.
this is the final result. I got 38 small balls of puff puff |
