achu

fufu and eru

@ w koko
it depends on what type of meat u want in ur achu soup
but what i know is dat fresh fish is never used as it can spoil the taste/colour
of the soup
the cow leg is usually used in cameroon to prepare pepper soup and yes it is served with the bones

@ africhika
i'll have to look dat up coz cameroonians have so many different meals. can u please describe this meal well so i can get a clue?
what did u eat it with? plantains, fufu, rice etc?

@chika98

Hi Doc

how bad is the disease proteus mirabilis? does it have any effect on fertility? is it sexually transmissible?

~Sissy~:

get the neutrogena deep moisture butter cream or the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Body Moisturizer both are good. and since you have eczema take short showers and avoid using hot water. you can also mix it with the neutrogena sesame oil

Thanks Sissy, i just bought the neutrogena norwagian formula and the body oil few days ago and am expecting good results

Thank God i found this thread.
I am the hairy type from birth but recently i don't
know whats happenning to my hair. I have been using Dark and Lovely
for the past 5 years and it relaxes my hair well without any burns (i have a very
delicate scalp)
When ever i style my hair (using rollers), it looks good but the next day is like
i was not in the saloon. And i have realised dat i have breakages when i comb my hair( even though i trim the edge of my hair after every retouching).
I am posting along the pic of the hair product i currently use.
Please can u advise me of what to do and use to give my hair that thick and rich texture it use to have before?
NB I have also used motions products before( but not the relaxer)

I felt so sad when Nicholas was put on probation
