Hello beautiful people, thanks for visiting my blog and reading my weekend story, like I mentioned in my previous publication, I am more of a stay-at-home lady, I rarely have reasons to go out and have fun.
This weekend was a busy one for me, it is that type of weekend when you have guests over, these guests are older family members who just come to check up and see how I am fairing. Whenever I have these sets of guests around, it usually gets me super busy because I have to make sure that they eat properly during the visit.
When I am at home alone, I barely find the time to prepare proper meals for myself, I eat in little quantities and by the time I am done cooking, most times, I am usually unable to eat, the satisfaction I get, however, is when I have people I love around, I cook for them and they eat well to their satisfaction.
When they informed me of their visit I hurried to the market to get some ingredients, I made semovita, okra, and egusi soup for them, and by the time I finished preparing the meal, I hurriedly dished out to everyone without remembering to take pictures of the end product.
We saw a movie later that evening and it was a beautiful time to have important discussions and laugh about interesting activities.
They were to leave the following morning and I didn't want them to leave without eating anything I got up very early before them, made a simple meal of rice and beans and of course vegetable soup to blend with, they really loved it and they promised to come to visit again soon.
The few moments I get to spend with those I love are indeed very precious to me and I do not take them for granted at all, on this note, once again, my weekend was filled with an interesting activity of spending enough time in the kitchen and I loved it. A big shout-out to @galenkp and the entire admin in charge of this beautiful community for an opportunity to share my weekend experience.
All pictures used are mine and were taken with my smart phone.
I understand you about the cooking. I love to entertain and feed people, but sometimes spend so much time cooking that I have no appetite by the time it comes to eat!
You had a great weekend though:)
Yes, I did have a great weekend and it is great to see someone who shares the same view as me.
Absolutely and you are very welcome:)
Lucky me I have a partner that loves to cook. If this was not the case I would be sailing in the same boat. I am happy you have found time to cook and entertain those closest to you. BTW, this is the first post I have read on this page. Luv it.
It's good that you have someone who loves to cook ooo, Sincerely once I get financially capable, I will need to get someone to do that for me.
