How I Proved My Sister Wrong By Cooking With 3,100 Naira. by Caaz(op):
My sis visited me complaining her husband gave her 5k to prepare food that it's too meagre.

I told her to manage it and whip any meal together so her kids can see what to eat when they return from school...madam kept insisting that the money won't go anywhere.


A family of 4......So in order to teach her how to manage with her husband for the time being since he's a good man....make she nor use her hands push him outside.

I told her to give me the money so I would cook the meal for her.then she can take it home.
I insisted on buying everything from outside.

She said there's no way I can cook with less than 5k.

She was even teasing me that we should use one of my bird join the experiment(lolz)

Here are the things I bought from the market
Pepper #200
Redoil 300
Melon 450
Maggi #100
Sachet tomato 150
Dried tilapia fish #500
Okpehi 200
A cup of garri 100(for experimental purposes)
Spaghetti #1000
Onions #100

Nobody is arguing with you, but whatever you are doing, you know in your mind.

If you like, say you cooked for an entire village with 2k and plucked beef 🍖 and fish 🐟 from the tree 🌴, no wahala.

Truth is that your sister is lazy. undecidedNo sugar coating it..How can she say 5k cannot make a meal for 4?
If she isn't lazy ,after you successfully bought the ingredients, why didn't she take them home to cook? But allowed you cook to still prove what point? She just lazy.

You made food for a one time meal.

Money has so much lost value that a proper pot of soup that will serve 3 different meals for a family of four is nothing less than 15k no matter how you want to economise.

If you sent her to get fresh pepper...it's from #500 but if it's cameroun pepper you can get as low as #100
