Dami we are old school jare Times have changed.

I'm always tempt to give this one a hard head knock but always hold back coz of his age.(thinking in my head if I can talk like that to my brother of same age). It's somewhat awkward jare compared to our current environment trend. I guess we have to blame it on our culture and upbringing.

naijababe:
I was thinking about that too, imagine her bringing home some guy who is 10 years older I will ask plenty plenty questions o

Babe the point is they are not even wired to fall in love with such age gap.

My kindergartener only converses, will invite, play dates with a first grader at home and in school. The first question they (not even me) asks new neighbours is 'what grade are you'? If we have older kid over, everybody play seperately. That's how strict their orientation is.

No freaking way. Hypergamy is soo old school jare.

Hmm Hypergamy.. Only a big deal with Nigerians.

Times have changed and financial status is not a big deal anymore. New age men are open to their bacon winner wives.

For Parents with school age children here; Speaking of new age, Do you notice in our children's schools, that mixed age grouping stops at school age?(pre-Kindergarten).

*Recesses are divided into different times to prevent what we champion in Nigeria.

*First graders cannot play with a third grader etc

* Infact I've never seen a 12th grader ask a 10th grader out to a prom. Never.

Come to think of it; I don't think I'll ever endorse one old agbaya to ask my daughters hand in marriage because he's i'ntellectual level' is assumed to be higher than hers??
By the way, What's the age difference btw Kath & prince for example? 1or 2? Obama & Michele? Bush & Hilary? To name few.

Times have changed folks.

My zero cents..

cococandy:
thanks dear. I'm not spitting or throwing up....yet.

Hopefully it remains so.

I hope so too. Lucky you. Please take it easy and drink lots of 3.5% milk That boy must look Freeeshhhh.

all4naija:
I like it. I'd love it sugary a bit. Like brownies I'd soak it down with glass of milk.

Thanks. You got that right, best way to wash every sugary dessert down.. Milky Way.

all4naija:
I like it! That would serve for a desert! Is it cold?

yes very and crunchy too had to toss half of it. Don't wanna ruin my teeth.I'll let it soak longer next time.

all4naija:

'You meant no harm' but your expressions come across kinda rude.
How I wish NL is a scifi open concept where posters are within reach.. The kain beating you for don get here would've blinded your face shut tete. What is so funny in White rice and eforiro fish stew? Do you have any idea what it takes to make a meal from scratch?

People need to respect others effort and enough with these unsolicited criticisms.

lolaxavier:
You came home from the most stressful day at work. Your boss just threatened your job because you just missed out on a contract and it's already first week of the new month but yet to receive your last month's pay. Somehow you found your kids in this manner. What will you do? Be honest.

Or simply put, you are a worker in Osun state where Aregbesola has paid one year salary in advance
What would be your reaction?

N.B: I no talk Yankee pikin o. Na African children I dey talk.

Lololol but your na Yankee pikin dey your pic na.

NAIJA pikin no get that kain liver bro, knowing the kind of beating theyll get from their parents.

Tell me about it

I'll give it a try.

ayoi:
Yeah overcooked vegetables r unpleasant to d eyes cld taste well bt they've got no nutrients.
I actually find it easier to toss them in a pan on fire.

Hmm like that? I'm learning. Then what?

I cant believe what I'm reading here

Really

Body parts on a food thread? Gosh

@ayoi. Ayo girl please e don do

obiksam:
House she called this morning and he didn't. why, because he is tired of her abusing words. Then he called her father to tell him to talk to her duaghter not to call him again when she left out of her wish. Do you people know what her father replied? This same man that told him two months ago that marriage is contract. Well he said " You would have listen to her" On what ground? That was his reply, then he said i will pass your massage to her. What an insult. Let me put more light to this.
Ok you are leaving with your hubby in a particuler area best known to your hubby why he decides that you people should reside in that area. suddenly you don't fill comfortable again why, he asked, Nothing was the answer. Later i don't want to stay in east why. Nothing. So if a woman decides not to leave where his husband is comfortable enough to care for her and she left why send a witch sms again. After staying in Lagos for one month during the time the hubby was talking to her to come back she told the husband to relocate with the kids to Lagos to do what, on what grounds. So house please a woman has every right in her home but not when your hubby founds out what you are up too.
The reason why his hubby wanted them to stay in east,is this, Not that he is from the east,but she is from delta, born and brought up in Ogun, So the hubby was like come and learn this part of our great nation. wAHALA

Oga your own too much oh ..

Brb. I'm tired jare. I got my own palaver to tend to

obiksam:
Good. Well his mother is not angry about her sms instead she even tell him to go and recouncil with her wife, But that she dosent want to wish her bad all because of the kids. So right now her only concern is for her to repent. In order words he has made up his mind.

She will repent, be the bigger person and extend an olive branch.

I pray you both can work things out and be a family again.

freecocoa:
Really? I'm yet to see the correlation between promiscuity and feminism, i'm a feminist that doesn't mean I want to share my partner with anyone neither do I want to be sleeping with other men.

It's just ignorant that people want to place their excesses on feminism.

Polyamory is not Promiscuity. It's a choice and a way of life.

Lord have mercy .. Continue

shrekandfiona:
now this is funny and made me post here for the first time
All thru my pregnancy, i used to come here in stealth mode to drool on you, Ewuro4 and herzhumpter's delicacies. The pictures alone were filling
After drooling, I'll then go to any naija cuisine close to me and eat local foods. If there is a lagos island cafe close to you, go there. They serve a buffet of all naija dishes for about 15$ per head. You'll eat till you drop but no take out. I wish you a smooth 9 months journey

Drastic times calls for drastic measures.

Congrats Cococandy. I hope you have a spît cup handy?

ayoi:
@ tatacherie, I think it got black cuz
-u either covered it while u were cooking.
- u steamed in extremely hot water for a long time.
- u cooked it for a long time.

True.
Yes. Overcooked vegetables is unpleasant to the eyes, though still tasty.

I only blanch my veggies (pour boiling water over it then immediately shock it in ice cold water to retain the greeness) , never cook them.

Bros abeg stop it , if you know what I mean, it's just pointless going back and forth with that dude, it's clear that he's here to ruffle feathers , please

Just stop it. Abeg of you. Let this thread continue

Good morning everyone

Those knives and bômbś emoticons though

aspirebig:
Na wa ooo

You will need to relocate her fast and cut off her relationship with the woman.

Then what, She 'automatically' cuts off her sexcapades contacts too?

I don't think so.

OP.. LAUNCH THAT OPERATION ASAP!

obiksam:
Don't think, nobody is denying her anything she left by herself and the hubby tried to talk her back home with the help of elderly people but she refused. To the extend that her father told him that marriage is contract. So when she left for four months now why sudden sms calling his mother a witch. Na she be witch infact na only God go save her

Don't mean to sound rude sir but I do not believe you your story doesn't sound convincing. A sane woman will not leave her children behind without a reason, someone/thing is definately chasing that woman. But that's by the way.

@calling grandma a witch, does that make your mom a witch? What's with summoning her to ritual grounds , for what? Are you in the right state of mind atall? even when your mom is raging as a result of this, you're supposed to be the tension buffer , no, instead you opted to be irrational and ready to go for the kill when you could've apologized to your mom on her behalf and stop beating the dead horse.

If not for anything, she's still the mother of your children and will forever be in their lives so you gonna have to learn to tolerate her regardles of your differences.

Simmer your brain sir, you have two kids to raise.

ladyF:
I choose a stable man that is wealthy.

That makes two of we hehe

*dusts shoulders* who no like better thing?

tatacherie:
Cudnt find anyoda sample in past pages so had to quote dis frm page 286 buh dunno y d pix dint show in my quoting.would appreciate ur response.hope I can use yam or plaintain along dis eforiro

Yes you can use yam or plantain or any other carb of choice.

I used Spinach&Bok choy leaves(you can use any greens) . I also used olive oil hence the bright green color. So I deep fried Tomato paste (tin tomato) and crushed peppers(red bell peppers (tatashe) , scotch bonnet (hot pepper) , onions & galic) , crayfish and added the greens, then meat of choice.
Hope that helps?

obiksam:
Her wife left him 4 months ago leaving him with his two children, he have tried talking her back home but she refused rather than ranting abuses on him, So he decides not to call her again, suddenly his mother received an sms from her calling her a watch that she should confess and she also sent him same sms calling him and his entire family watchs.
He called the father in-law to warn her daughter to stop such act since she dose not want the marrage. But she continued sending rude sms to his mother. Now he wants to summon her at CHOKO NA EZE in Nbaisi Imo state for her to come and defend her sms why she should call his mother witch.
House kinded advice what should he do. Summon her or just let the fool be .

Maybe it's just me but Something's not right with your story sha. I think you're denying that woman access to her kids hence her rage & uncouthness.

You want to kill her? What is the repercussions of this ritual?
What is hidden to onlookers is open to God. Leave her alone, Let her have access to her children . Let God judge everyone.

Vivalavida99:
Now my question is, does feminism has anything to do with open marriage?

I've said it before. after reading many books , seen different marriage trends and even attended the movt conferences . The only cohabitation arrangement that works in any relationship that will give each partner the right to freedom is open marriage.

Not at all feminism has nothing to do with open marriages.

Maybe not all but I very much believe most of them.

Why do you think all these married Role models (chichi) have more followers/apologists than divorced & single ones? They (followers) finally see what to cling onto for once in their lives. It's a breakthrough for them. A breakthrough to keep a home and have the right to make decisions/choices without that obligation to consult anyone. Well even though they do not know how these Role models homes were ran, the portrait of a perfect family is a solice on its own. 'Why can't they pull that off ? '

IMO ; Feminism is the right to exercise freedom without barrier or being controlled('slavery').

Since it has been established from time immemorial ('Tradition' which the movt hate like a plaque) that men have more rights than women so the "What is good of goose is good for the gander' comes into play hence Feminism.

Every other purpose the movt claimed to support have their own respective NGO bodies ( human rights/women rights/FGM etc).. It's all cover up.

Tenk.

All these epistles again. more grease to your power abi elbow

Happy Epistling

tatacherie:
Greetings to you all
@ Ewuro i love ur Efo riro sample n would like to prepare it bt unfortunately I didn't see d ingredients needed for d soup as I've gone trough some past pages.could u pls help? Thanks already

Which one sweetheart? Just quote it. We are literally rice eaters so I always prepare different kinds of Efo riros/stews

Hmm I made Egusi soup/abi stew last night and forgot to snap the plated dish. This is what it looks like. I used Bok choy(too many stalks sha but I guess it okay) and ugwu dry leaves for greens.

Pic #2.. Dessert ; Lemon pound cake, they finished a whole loaf within 20mins I didn't get to taste it.

ApexTitan:
Dej Loaf. She has a new EP out "Thatsjustthething", only 6 songs long. Have you listened to it?

No. I'll check it on itunes. Love her vocals

thorpido:
I guess this is the same corpse i saw today.The police brought him to the morgue at my station.
I heard the mother left him with a neighbour because she fell into labour and some boys kidnapped him and killed him.

*covers mouth*

Lord have mercy on every members our family !

..

Anyway Mr. Shevon with all due respect, please change your mindset. I'm assuming you're new to parenthood (if you're parent). There's nothing immoral about a dad caring for his daughter, Infact dads share closer bonds with daughters than moms. Please don't deprive that babygirl her father's unconditional love because of Society's perception of you.

Yes some people are sick in the head to even think a dad will defile his daughter due to closeness. Says a lot about their childhood structure.

Thank you and God bless.

Breakie , Vanilla Yogurt and Granola

@Topic, that awkward moment you run into daddy's bedroom with only panties & bra on to steal a dash of his cologne (with the aim that he's still at work) , only to find him in bed reading punch and watching CNN news mogbe! Temibami (he just shook his head)

Daughters will forever be Daddy's princess/little girl.

shevon:
Is there a reason I have a wife?
Even if my wife is not home to do that, at least, I can afford a house help.
You really need to get you mind out of the gutters.
If I want to run my home that way, I feel you should mind your own and do your thing your way (that is of you are married)
What I have expressed is my opinion, you should do same and mind your corner.

Do you even have kids, Not to talk of a daughter?

This is not about minding business, your post is just creepy to start with. At first I thought you're being naive but now gotta ask if you even know what it feels like as a DADDY to have a daughter?

We won't mind our business, that's exactly what is depreciating NIGERIA.

SAMBARRY:
I'm the former

I see

edwife:
Great idea,but i chose to go sightseeing.London has so many attractions that i am planning on visiting few of them. No visitors in this time around-need my peace and quiet.

Tell me about it, sacrifice you make for your kids.
@sightseeing, you're right . you'll never know the beauty of your city/country till you're home bound and decide to explore . Then you'll know.

Days still young here. Have a good night.
