Omo, for my country party no dey complete without jollof rice and meat, fish or chicken ๐(in my country, a party isn't complete without jollof rice and meat, fish or chicken). Whether it's a birthday, weeding or even a small get together, once there is jollof rice then the party is complete. The smell of the jollof rice alone brings joy and people together. When I say jollof rice, I mean the one cooked with firewood.
That one has a special taste attached to it. I remember there was a time I went to a weeding celebration of a colleague, there was no jollof rice and that's what everyone was anticipating, so I joking asked someone sitting beside me, which kind party no dey cook jollof rice ๐ (what kind of party doesn't cook jollof rice). So if I could bring a special food to @ladiesofhive anniversary, it's going to be jollof rice served with chilled soft drink to step down.
One blessing I would say to the @ladiesofhive community is: May we continue to grow in love, strength, and support for one another. May this space remain a safe place where every woman can express herself freely, share her story, and find comfort among sisters. I pray for joy, blessings, favor and open doors for every lady here. I'm grateful to be a part of this wonderful community.
There is a song titled 'woman', sang by our very own Simi, one of my favorite female artist. The song celebrates women and their strengths. It talks about how women are strong, valuable and deserve love, care and respect. It's a perfect song to celebrate every woman in this community.
So here's to good food, good music and every woman on this community. May our bond grow stronger. Happy anniversary to us!
