Same to you Buka

It depends on the type of rice you’re using.
I was using basmati in this case. Quick to cook and easy to get soggy. Hence it goes straight into the veggie mix and just cooks with the steam. Tiny stock added. No water.

If I’m using jasmine rice, I cook it like white rice, leave it in the fridge overnight to harden and then put in my veggie sauce when I’m ready.

When using parboiled rice, I give a good rinse and fry in butter like you described.

Experience has taught me the different rices don’t play the same way

Compliments of the season.

Lovely

You pour your rice into your veggies for fried rice?

Is the rice parboiled? Or fully cooked?

Would like to try this.

I fry my rice in butter, add soy sauce and raw eggs, stir fry the veggies in a different pot and add to the fried rice with my stock.

My fried rice is done. Shrimp, scallops and sausage are what I used in addition to the veggies.

I’m making stewed goat and chicken to serve with it.

But I’m so tired right now. Might have to suspend it and go sleep:

Let whomever the spirit leads go and finish the cooking. Or everyone can wait until I’m “untired” again.

Where do you find these your pictures?

Fine lady, why did u leave your man hanging?

I think for most ovens, the circle on the knobs indicates which part of the stove top will be lighted depending on where you turn it to.

In the most simplest term I think.

And I’ll answer for eyinjuege. You can’t make gizdodo without gizzards. Sorry.
It’s like jollof without rice

Okay.

Well as for how he can get involved in the child’s life. Small steps first and let it grow from there.
Once paternity is no longer in question, he can start by taking up some financial responsibility that goes directly to the child’s care.

They( him and the child’s mom) can discuss custody. Who gets him? When? Where? Holidays, school etc. a mediator might be needed to be the process more smooth and professional. It’s hard to detach emotions from things like this which is why a third party who has no stake in it should be involved.

Boundaries should be discussed and clearly spelled out because if he’s the father, that woman is going to be forever in your lives. That’s where boundaries need to be clearly laid down so no one is confused as to what their role is. This is usually the part that causes the most troubles with extended family settings.
However with maturity and the way you described your husband, hopefully that won’t be an issue.

Small steps first.

Massey27:
Thank you so much. We are already discussing surrogacy and have eve.n contacted some agencies. And the process will start next year hopefully.
The reason I brought this here is to know the best way to get him involved in the boy's life if he is the father. And I no want carry load enter 2020.

It's not a pleasant thing for me and even talking about it makes me angry. And the pain and hurt comes back at him.
I never believed I can even bring it up and talk to him about the child. But just like they say, time heals.

I know the emotional and psychological trauma I went through. And the anger still pops up once in a while.
I talk about him the way I do cos it's natural and he has gone through a lot too. That does not make what he did right, but everyone deserves a second chance especially if they are working hard for it.

I appreciate your advice. Thank you. Oh concerning a counsellor, we had a one month session with a marriage counselor.
I was not meeting up cos of the nature of my job. That was in August this year. I guess we have to schedule another.

Thanks allot.

Good luck in your search

“Nudes to be uploaded soon”. Yes we are so interested in seeing some naked stranger.

Everyone isn’t as pervy as you think. Move along.

Most people have already said it all.

Your husband is remorseful for the way he treated you, that should count for something. At least he’s not the type that claims he has the right be a horrible husband.
As is “we are in Africa” levels.

However he shouldn’t feel as if him ignoring the child he possibly fathered is a way to show you that he doesn’t care about that woman anymore. The two don’t have to go hand in hand. He can be over it/her and still be a responsible father.

Don’t feel apologetic for him because you think not having a child makes you deserve less. It doesn’t.
For one the child may not even be his and he might be the cause of you guys’ childlessness. Sometimes defective sperm cells can cause non-viable pregnancies that can’t be carried full term and the body just spontaneously aborts them. Go to a competent health center/hospital and figure this out together.

DNA testing has already been mentioned. Do that.

And after all the dust is settled you both need counseling from a professional to be able to put this behind you and move forward. You’re going to feel resentful. Don’t bury it and just hope it goes away.

Small something coming your way for your baby food.

Don’t despair please. You have no idea how things can change in this life.

Also read efemenaxy post and digest it.

I once had an aunt like you. Lost her in 2012. I’ll never forget her. Always hustling all over the place trying to do everything even when she had a man.
I know you can’t fold your arms and watch your family struggle. Most women can’t. But you have to be met halfway.

Don’t mind them.

fieryy:
Stop blaming the victim Mr!

Days ago when the video of a woman who threw her young maid to the floor went viral, a lot of men were saying things like: 'Women are naturally wicked, women are this and that'.

Now we have a case of the husband hitting his wife with A STONE.
As expected from misogynists who always want to blame women and justify the actions of men: 'Some women have bad mouth, blablabla'.

You are all sick hypocrites. The man should be locked up. He can explain to the judge why he felt the need to almost kill another human being and if he'd had acted the same way when challenged by someone stronger.

BigJoe19:
But you also comment the same when it is a woman that does it, are you any different?

You must be high on something.

When have I ever asked a woman to kill her husband because he asked her for money? Or for any reason at all?

Some of just wake up and confuse other people to be yourselves.
