'Feast' Your Eyes

Hey folks. I'm at a meeting right now and I'm hungry and bored out of my mind. Some oyinbo people are giving a presentation to the staff of my unit and I was required to attend. We were given meat pie and juice during the lunch break- meat pie and juice!*&!#@- can you imagine? This is the worst meeting I've had to attend. So, here I am sitting with my laptop, looking attentive and 'taking notes' (meaning I'm browsing). At a point I knew I'd fall asleep and to prevent embarrassing myself, I decided to do something constructive. I looked for pictures of food (I love food) and since I haven't eaten all afternoon, this is probably the closest I'll get to food, before I get home.

Here are the pictures. Enjoy!
Beans and Plantain

Jollof Rice


Pounded Yam an Egusi Soup

Goat Meat Peppersoup


Pounded Yam and Ogbonor Soup with assorted meat.


Check out the vegetable soup right there in the middle!

I don't feel sleepy anymore. Now I am really hungry. Let me get back to the meeting jare.
I'm out!

darkelcee said...

i am meant to be fasting today. why now?

My stomach is rumbling like mad. the jollof rice oooooo no.

*wailing*

Naija Chickito said...

@onydchic-! could really be mean yeh? I don't see why I have to suffer alone!

@misspumping-I am lucky to be in Nigeria. But I had no hope of eating anything remotely resembling those pictures at the time of the post. I made really delicious egusi with goat meat when I got home because of torment. Praise God, some body!

@Orientatednaijababe-noodles? ewwwwww. epele o. lol.

@fantasy queen- Please don't tell. I'll be good. How about lunch?

@Sting-lol

@omosewa- No mind those people. Them no know say we need to chop better chop!

@rayo- e ya!!

@toochi- ah, but why na? What have I done wrong? *wink*

@guerreiranigeriana - Kpele. What we go through in the name of work. *shakes head*

@darkelcee- But I only aim to please. May God answer you prayers during your fast. Amen

@DL- I must give it to you. You are 'Da Blogga'! even in your sleep, you dey check blog? Mehn, I'm tripped. This is my take, you wake up cos you are pressed, you take a leak and on your way back to the bed you go, "why don't I just check naija chickito [insert blog name here]'s blog, leave a comment and go back to bed?"

hmmm...i can't compete with that!

@Oh dear! So sorry. I will make Ogbono, with dry fish and you favorite meat, and post to you. How about that?

Hephzibah said...

I actually swallowed hard! can't believe it as I am not a foodie and the first pic put me off as I love beans and plantian and my first thot was that's not beans and plaintain neither is that jollof rice more like fried or chinese special fired rice but the solids did it, I swallowed.....

so i might make an attempt at cooking, last I did was 3-4 weeks, I usually microwave indomie...not a foodie....
