Family › Re: Why Male Education Is Better Than Female Education In The Family? by cococandy(f): 10:34pm On Mar 05, 2015
MasterJayJay:
This is just an assignment given to a student that approached me. They are going to use it for debate. So I need some points on why male education is better than female education in the family.

Thank you.
If that someone is related to you pls have them withdraw from that archaic school if you can.

This is a debate fit for last century.

And there's no playing devil's advocate either way because you can only debate topics that make sense not the senseless ones.

When you were playing pretend devil's advocate,what reasons did you come up with that made sense to the ears?

It is a dumb debate.

He will buy you expensive masculine gifts that you don't understand.

Like how many Pairs of sunglasses does one need since they all look alike?
But he will buy it because it is a designer even if it looks exactly like the last one just a different brand angry

Things like that.
Trainers
Beatz by Dre that I don't care about.

Hmmm. I'm learning a lot from nairaland.
Now I know not to bother about such things.

At least he's improving. Last gift was a handbag and a good brand too.
I didn't even know he was aware such brand exists. (He said he used google to find it)

I guess that are really fast learners.

Thanks . Please how can I make the dough
Mix one and half cups of flour with half teaspoonful of salt and two teaspoonfuls of vegetable oil . Rub in the oil thoroughly until absorbed by the flour.

Add half cup water gradually until you have a thick dough.
Start kneading the dough until it becomes very stretchy. If it sticks to your hands, put dry flour on both surfaces of your palms and keep kneading.

Note that the more you knead the tougher it becomes. You don't want to too hard to roll.

So stop when you've gotten a consistency that you can roll easily and at the same time be able to cut it shape.
Cover for fifteen minutes.

Then cut a handful of dough and roll into a flat circle. Cut the circle into three equal triangles (picture 1)

Fold each triangle into a cone using a little flour mixed with water to form a paste to secure the sides. (Picture two) One edge will stick out on top(pic 3)

Put your filling and fold the edge sticking out on top over the cone. Secure with more flour paste (pic 4) and set aside until you've done all of them and then start frying.

I now believe you are out to get me!
How can u be posting such yummy looking snack & expect one not to atleast salivate?
Please, can I have the receipe for the filling? Thanks dear.
smiley

Very simple to make

Use your favorite veggies.
Minus broccoli or cauliflower (I hate those two)

I used green beans, egg plant, sweet corn,carrot,potato, onions,mushroom and spinach leaf.

Chilli pepper (ground)
Garlic
Salt
Half cup water
Accent seasoning(my personal favorite smiley )
Chicken flavor seasoning or maggi chicken
**********************************
Boil the potato and dice.
Dice and fry your onions with curry and a pinch garlic.
Add the other veggies and let cook until carrots and green beans are soft.
Add the water and then Add mushroom,sweet corn,eggplant and spinach greens last because they cook at two minutes tops.

Then put your already diced boiled potatoes.
add little chilli pepper according to your taste but don't let it get too spicy

Salt and seasoning last according to your taste.
If it is too runny,add a teaspoonful of plain flour to thicken it

Let cool and use it to fill your pastry/dough before frying.

Don't make the dough too soft or too think or too thick either.

You get the general idea from my pic but I should have made my dough a bit stiffer so it would be crunchier.

The samosa should be Crisp and crunchy on the outside but tender and juicy on the inside.

Make your dough stiff but not too hard to roll or cut.

Romance › Re: In Need Of An Experienced Advice Pls!!! Should I Follow My Head Or Heart by cococandy(f): 12:47am On Mar 05, 2015
0malicious:
my advice is this
1. just bear it in mind that you are young, 21 is a young age to talk of marriage.
2. Talk of marriage is not a sign of seriousness, men can talk talk n talk n introduce you to their ancestors but if they're gonna mess u up, they will.
3. Focus on building urself now. this is d most important part of my advice. I swear it can't be over emphasized. as a woman you need to have something going for yourself, have some self worth. forget the love fairy tale bullshit, it doesn't last, what your seeing is jus d welcoming parade. what makes you a real woman is not a mans appreciation but your ability to stand on your own. don't make rships d centre of your life when you ought to focus on harnessing your God given talents.
4. don't take any rship seriously for now unless your ready to get married. stop d activity with d second guy, think about it n realise d guy is selfish in his demands. if you eventually leave ur bf he might lose interest, some men re chasers it would shock you to know what they'd do to get what they want. and no this guy is not too sweet to be like that, open your eyes.
5. sex is just an activity, stop putting too much thought on it. it comes with a lot of baggage that only marriage can handle trust me.
sorry for d long post smiley God bless you.

Family › Re: Would You Marry A Man You Can't Trust? by cococandy(f): 6:34pm On Mar 04, 2015
Why do some men marry women they don't trust?
If the wife is not trustworthy enough to be reasonable and contribute sensibly to the home decision making and upkeep, why marry her?

If his judgment must always be the correct one,it means he doesn't believe he's marrying a trustworthy mature adult whose POV and opinion should always be on the table alongside his for consideration and the best option of the two chosen In the end.

If a man feels like his wife should always go along with whatever he says regardless of how it affects her or the home in general,then he doesn't need a wife.

He needs to be by himself since he is self sufficient and all-knowing.

Or is trust one sided?

I wasn’t even bothered she had two sons from her previous marriages because when I met her, she was the best woman in the world. She took care of the seven children I had from my previous marriages.
The drunk poverty stricken eidiot even had seven kids from his former marriages (whom she took good care of as can be deduced fron the son's stance that all the kids are in harmony) yet he feels he did her a favor by marrying her and her two sons.

klark3:
My dear with total sincerity, men handle success better than women.

Success intoxicate women. The male child has been trained as a leader by both d mum & dad. It would be an aberration for a male child to wash dishes in a house with female. The male child is expected to emulate his dad, while female, their mum. The society plays a significant role in our lives, & the society recognise the wife & female children to be the cook in any family.

For example, I'm d 4th child, d first is a girl, she's married with kids, but whenever she is at home, maybe on holiday or any celebration, she does all the d house chores & cooking, because she had a good upbringing. So u don't expect me to get married tomorrow & cook for my wife, even if am idle, I will never do it.

Personally, I think God designed it that way, it's a God given role to women, in marriage, it's generally acceptable for a woman to cook, do house chores, is her natural responsibility. That's why most successful restaurants are managed by women, because it's related to cooking, washing dishes. Though I know most women deplore this culture, but in a realistic sense, it's more acceptable by d general public.

U as girl won't be happy if u visit your brother to find out that he's d one doing all d house chores & cooking, while d wife sits on a sofa watching TV. Though women have been agitating for equality, the obvious God made domineering power of a male cannot be overshadowed by d weak characteristics of a female.

In marriage, it would be better if women are in charge of anything that has to do with d kitchen & chores, regardless of her financial status, the man's involvement can be episodic. A man is man, d male natural responsibility is to cater for d family financially, & if he fails, he resort to frustration, because he has failed. Subjecting him to doing house chores will only compound his failure as d breadwinner.

This will only escalate issues. there are certain things that doesn't befits a man, I don't know why women are finding it difficult to accept this natural/cultural Phenomenon.
Christianity Etc › Re: How Do You Love God But Hate Your Neighbours? by cococandy(f):
bukatyne:
If you believe Peter, why not John in Revelations?

Even Jesus told stories about hell... E.g. the 3 servants who were given talents; the 10 virgins etc. etc.

If Nobody will go to hell, what is the motivation to live a righteous life?

If everyone is assured of a 1st class in the university, what is the motivation to read?

Will give you more robust response later.
@bold, I don't know maybe the motivation is the responsibility naturally bestowed on us as a higher species to ensure that harmony, fairness and continuity is the theme of life from one generation to another?
Does there have to be a motivation borne out of fear for one to live a righteous life?
Promoting good relationship,friendship and justice between humans of all races should be enough motivation. shouldn't it?
Afterall if you really look at the 10commandements, those rules are specifically mostly for the promotion of good relationship between man and his neighbor for our own good.

If that's not enough motivation for anyone to try to live a righteous life, trust me, the promise of a shiny heaven or the fear of a fiery hell won't be enough to get them to live righteously.

We have been raised to be selfish mostly. so it is perfectly ok to see someone say "if I can't go heaven,why do good?"
subconsciously everything we do,we hope to gain something from.
That's not righteousness. That's selfishness.

Most people honestly cannot break a sweat to help another person if there's nothing in it for them. They just can't wrap their heads around such.
So there has to be the promise of heaven for them before they can do good.
Take that away and you will see that most 'godly' people aren't really godly or selfless at all.
They just think they are buying themselves some treasure up somewhere.

If there was no promise of a heaven or the threat of hell somewhere,many humans would be running amok in their own wickedness because the thought of doing good just so that the life of the next person will be easier won't ever cross their minds. To them it would be a waste.

And that honey is true human nature.

Whoever or however the idea came up of a hell and heaven,it was centered on man's inability to do good except there's something personal in it for him.


As for whether there is really a hell and a heaven, everyone to their beliefs jare. Since Christians are even divided on the matter who else will vouch for it?
