Those days in school

I had this lodge mate who cooks rubbish, the high point of his cooking was he putting ARCHI to thicken beans (whether he did it knowingly or unknowingly, only him knows) as we saw this, nobody ate the beans with him that day o. Infact I personally stopped eating food he cooked cos to me it's food poisoning

Back in the day mum want to pound yam and asked me to put yam on to cook. Absentmindedly I added salt LoL. When she came to see if it had cooked she tasted it and screamed my name. That's when I realized my mistake. Mum still made her pounded yam but I don't know how well she enjoyed it.

(ahhhh, rushes past a joint in his suit, reverses back, peeps and enters) ahh cheesy

this feels cool(looks@ wristwatch) okay still gat time!

Went to spend Dec wif my Uncle's family, i en my younger bro. He always mocked us that we cant cook, etc. Yet he wont give us a chance to prove him wrong.

N:b cooking on firewood has a taste on its own..
(dodges stones hurled his way)

so he told his son to cook beans. As usual we were not to go near the pot till its done. Gbam a roaming here and there and i entered the palor to see him snoring. 'Action!!' shouted the director of my mind.

I add maggi, etc and told his son to step down as per senior bro.

Bottomline: (dodges another stone) he queried who cooked it and i regretted confessing twas me... Why....

[size=48pt] Cos he gave the designation to be cooking beans for the next 3weeks like asif i be Bro A.y[/size].....

author=elantraceey post=30096141]Here's a thread for our cooks cheesy

[ladies and gents], Don't feel shy mistakes happens once in a while wink

Here's mine grin

One this very beautiful day i just returned from school then my mummy
sent me immediately to the kitchen , with the anger on my face i
staggared to kitchen , normally it's way i cook bean : The fast and the
normal tongue

. The fast way , i just put the beans on fire with all the
necessary ingredients excluding oil and pepper of course while the
normal way is just to put the bean with just potash and onions and allow
the heat do it job so on this beautiful day i adopted my fast method
and pour in all my ingredients with my supposed cryfish(grounded, you'll
find out why it's supposed soon ), came back latter saw it was cooked
added pepper and oil and that was it . Minutes later my cousin came in
and as usual her first point of call was the kichen , when she heard i
cooked beans she was overjoyed saying that she haven't eaten beans in
while and she knows my beans is always special. As she served herself
she noticed the beans was slimy then she called out to me laughing *
Tracey why your beans dey draw?* I replied * maybe na the beans hand ,
if you nor wan chop commot there* . She said she couldn't eat it and
opted bread , my siblings served themselves and atr though they asked
the same question (you know children can eat anything ) till my mum
decided to see the food everyone was complaining about (all this while i
didn't even get close to the pot) , after checking she called me and
asked me show her the crayfish i put in it, i went to the cupboard and
it was then i noticed there was two look alike items in look alike
containers but i knew the one i took from ,collected it and went to show
her, immediately she opened it she burst into laughter and then said
*so na ogbono you take cook beans? * in our dialet , i was shocked then i
took it from her and checked it , til date i still wonder how come i
didn't notice it at first , i was called ogbono beans for that whole
week and till date my mum still use it to yab me any day she remembers
sad

Oya over to you grin

Nice thread

Mine happened just last two weeks, I used this Nescafe bottle to put my "grounded crayfish".

So, that faithful evening I was cooking afang soup...inshort I was done....but I felt the crayfish wasn't enough...as I wanted to go get the crayfish - they took light.
I grabbed a Nescafe bottle actually containing coffee, poured generously into my soup.

Just as I wanted to stir, the Holy spirit ministered to me, I ran to get a torch light...you know the rest na.

I had to scoop out the top (of the soup).

I can imagine

Mine was some years back **I can't remember d exact year now**

It was christmas day and rice was on d fire. I perceived d rice was burning and I rushed to see for myself. Getting there, I immediately poured rivers of living waters into d pot. I never knew d rice was fully cooked! cheesy

My aunty had to spread d rice on d sun for it to dry up ASAP cos visitors would be coming any moment.
