Health / Re: Cheap Eye Lens by otilowaju(f): 9:40am On Jul 27, 2010
How cheap? If you know the number of your lenses you can get them from those road side hawkers but you run the risk of damaging your eyes lipsrsealed.

However, good and affordable medicated eye lenses can be bought at a shop (upstairs, back) within the complex directly opposite Awolowo (glass) house in Ikeja. It's the only optical shop in the complex.

Business / Who Knows Where 'stop Center' On Allen Avenue Moved To? by otilowaju(f): 12:19pm On Jul 26, 2010
Stop Centre, a popular supermarket at Allen Avenue/Toyin Street roundabout has since moved to another location. Where it moved to precisely I do not know and there is a particular item I used to buy from them that I need now and do not know where else to pick it from. In fact Ive checked other stores in the area but couldn't find it. I also asked around but nobody knew the new address. Anyone who knows where they moved to should please help me out as soon as possible. Thanks a bunch.

Religion / Re: Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo Speaks On T.b Joshua by otilowaju(f): 12:45pm On Jul 07, 2010
thameamead:


its nonsence, no pastor has ever raised anyone from the dead, cured cancer or aids, It's all spin. i don't believe it, such a shame they never have any evidence to back it up, all they do is spend money like over paid footballers and hang out with corrupt politicans instead of lookinh after the poor and underpriviledged, bn a pastor these days is good business, all you do is set up a church with few people, go and visit a cheap babalawo for voodoo to help people flock to your church and that's it, money start rolling in, that's how they do it, [b][/b][size=8pt][/size]

Really Since you know what they do and how they do it why not go ahead and do likewise? Or, you don't need money?. Please, don't generalise. There are pastors and there are pastors. I rest my case. [s]I didn't want to come to this (Religion) Section in the firstplace. It's too full of arguments and insinuations[/s][sup][/sup].

Food / Re: Mamas Over 35 What Was Used To Make Food Taste Before Maggi Came by otilowaju(f): 5:08pm On Jun 17, 2010
Iru and ogiri were used in place of maggi in those days. People who crave for natural taste still do till now. If you don't like seeing them in your soup you can grind/blend them to paste and you'll still have your wonderful taste and tantalizing aroma. Lots of onion ground with your peppr or sliced in your soup/stew also bring out nice taste.

In addition, out mothers/grandmas cooked in clay pots and I tell you food cooked in these earthen items tastes natural and better than those cooked in modern cooking pots (though that's what I use too). I also use magi, but sparingly.

Food / Safest Container For Moimoi Healthwise (leaf, Nylon, Tin, Aluminium Cups?) by otilowaju(f): 4:22pm On Jun 17, 2010
Our mothers made tasty moimoi wrapped in leaves. Modernisation made us their children turn to nylon (less clumsy and easy to dispose) and plastic containers (such used by eateries to serve salad (easy to clean)! Besides, leaves are not easy to come by these days and they are not easy to preserve.

Over time we learnt that heated/steamed nylon and plastic containers can cause cancer (pls check the attachment). I decided then to buy alumnium cups with cover but am still afraid   shocked shocked of using them for fear of chemical.

I beg you house, does anyone know if its healthy to use aluminium cups/plates to steam moimoi Or is there a healthier alternative to all thesae cos I must always eat my moimoi o!!! wink  Thanks.

OOps, couldn't attach! Let me paste the info beneath here
"At Last, The reason of Cancer might have been discovered!
This is an article that should be sent to anyone important in your life  John Hopkins Hospital Update- Circulation Purpose
1. No plastic containers in micro.
‎2. No water bottles in freezer .
‎3. No plastic wrap in microwav ,
Dioxin chemicals cause cancer, especially bosom cancer ,
‎Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze   your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic 
‎Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimot!, Wellness Program Manager at Castle  Hospital , was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked  about dioxins and how bad they are for us .‎He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers ,
‎This especially applies to foods that contain fat ,
He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases  dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body .
‎Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else .
‎Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. ‎He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one  of the reasons ,
‎Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked , the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food" .
Health / Re: Doctor in the House: Free Medical Advice Available by otilowaju(f): 4:37pm On Jun 15, 2010
Balogun:

sharon, I have never practiced in Nigeria or trained there. Ask a dentist to refer you to a hygenist. Most mouthwashes are hydrogen peroxide based. Diluted peroxide might help

@Dr Balogun, what role can an ENT specialist play in this case?

Family / Re: Which Other Food Can I Introduce To My Baby Of 10 Mths Apart From Indomie? by otilowaju(f): 4:23pm On Feb 11, 2010
I have a baby of about the same age and with only 2 teeth up and 2 down wink which means he cannot chew but only swallow.

In the morning I pack in his school (creche) bag (in addition to his cereal) yam pottage, beans pottage, rice, potato, amala/semo/wheat & ewedu or ogbono. He eats almost everything we adults eat except that I cook them till very, very soft. The yam I mash totally with palmoil (no veg oil pls) and very small dry pepper and little salt (no maggi pls). Yes, I boil titus fish and debone completely and add to all the above. I also blend dry crayfish and alternate with fish. For his age, you should try and remove the skin of the beans before cooking (heard its the skin that triggers stooling ). If its Irish potato I add fresh egg to it and mash together, its also delicious to taste and my baby enjoys all of them. Even the amala and ewedu!!! kiss

There were these ladies I studied with in 1994/5 when I was writing ICSA (London) at Maryland study center. Their names are: Mary Mfon Akpan, Jumoke Alufa, Toyosi Adegoke (she was with Bagco then).

I'd like to reconcile with them, whoever knows their contact details should meet me here or send me a mail at temiyemi7731@yahoo.com. Cheers.

Deep Soul:

I have four (4) phobias:

1) Snakes
2) Plane crashes
3) Guns/Bullets
4) Sisters-In-Law

I'm not even married yet and you should see the pepper that these women have already shown me . . .It's not about having a pre-conceived notion, it's just about reality hitting you in the face!

Luckily, their mum is much nicer (thank goodness!). But then, every experience is a blessing. . .@least I'm learning how not to give my brothers' future wives hell . . .


@Deepsoul, pls read Outstrip's post again, I think she's rather saying ", NOT TO GIVE her brothers' future wives hell, "
