Today was a busy day for me, hello everyone I'm pleased to be here. How are you all doing? Hope great.

I will love to share my food diary with us, this morning I woke up with a mix feeling, thinking of what to eat as breakfast since I am alone at home, cooking of food this days as become a problem to me because of how lonely I am.

I woke up arrange every where in my house, dress my room then arranged my dress to church in the evening, this week we are having women's convention in my church, the program will end on Sunday.

When I was done arranging my house, I went to the kitchen to fix breakfast and I settled for jellof spaghetti.

Since I had everything at home I arranged the ingredients I will be using.
In this meal I didn't use meat so in place of meat I use fried egg to supplement my meal.

✅ Spaghetti
✅ Carrots
✅Green beans
✅ Tomatoes
✅ Vegetable oil
✅ Tumeric powder
✅ Fresh pepper
✅ Egg's
✅ Onions

I first of all parboiled my spaghetti by adding a little salt to it while cooking.

then I wash my carrots and green beans and onions, then slice them into the sizes which I want, and I keep it aside. While the spaghetti was still on fire, I ponded my pepper with a seed of garlic.

In another pot, I fried the tomatoes to dry by using my vegetable oil to fry it. Then I keep it aside and by this time my spaghetti is ready to be washed.

I don't like cooking spaghetti directly without removing some starch.

I then was the spaghetti, I make sure that I wash them properly because I didn't want any sand to penetrate and I didn't want the spaghetti to be sticky.

When I was done washing, I drain out the water, return it to the pot, then I pour in my tomatoes to the pot of the spaghetti, I added pepper, tumeric powder,salt, Maggie then I use my cooking spoon and I turn to mix the ingredients together, I make it was well mixed. I added a little water to it , then after mixing, I taste to see if I was able to get a sweet test.

Then I put it on fire and on a low temperature, I allow it to cook until the water dry off, then it was time to add my carrot and green beans.

When there was no water again, I added my carrots and green beans.

Immediately I added the carrot and green beans, I off my gas, I love it when my vegetables are fresh inside any meal, so my carrots and green beans was still fresh, I then off the fire and my food was ready.

So In a plate I I added my two eggs, then I added carrots and onions and a little pepper, beat it very well and then I fried the.

I finished frying the eggs, I get a plate scoop my spaghetti and then I added the eggs, at this point it was time to eat breakfast.

After eating my breakfast, so I had my neighbor's talking and I decided to check what they were discussing, and behold I saw her smoking fresh fish so I took some pictures of the fish.

I stayed with my neighbor and watched how she was smoking the fish, though I bought small fish from her though I ask her to smoke them for me.

Checking my time it was already pass 4pm and I needed to be in church, so I hurriedly rush down to my house and I took my bathe and I dressed up for church service.

I was in church by few minutes to 5pm.
Today program was picnic and breasts cancer awareness , we were supposed to have our picnic fun outside the house but because of rain we sat inside the church and because of the heavy rain fall we couldn't hear what was discussed, the rain stop alot of women to come,.

Mrs nurse iniobong, talk about breast cancer and how we can overcome them. I jot down some important points and I will love to share it with us.

While the seminar was on going, some snacks was going round, we had groundnuts, small chops and some drinks.

My own portion was given to me and I eat and enjoy myself. I make sure I ate well so that I can sleep without food as dinner.

By 7:30pm we were done with the activities in church, we took some group pictures.

When we were done, I went back home, then I took my evening bath, and when I was done taking my bath started writing.

This was how my food diary went.
