Better Life With Steem || The Diary Game || 14th February 2025
Love can be displayed in various ways; through little thought, actions, sacrifices and care. Yesterday, I created time to care and show love to my loved ones.
Selfie at the market
The day started beautifully well as always, I carried out my usual morning routine of doing house chores and exercise. Being that the platform is part of my routine, I logged in to blog for a while.
After having breakfast, I relaxed for few minutes and got dressed at 10:30am to visit the market. I had a lot of food items on my list to purchase because I was going to prepare both soup and stew.
Purchasing goat meat
I arrived the market and went straight to purchase goat meat and chicken first. These were the most expensive items on the list so I had to pay for them first in order to know the balance I will have left and also adjust some price of things.
Purchasing chicken
I purchased half kg of goat meat before moving to frozen store where I bought 1kg of chicken for #5,200 (20.8 steem). The chicken price was fair because the amount was displayed on the digital scale.
Kilishi spot
While I was at the frozen store, I saw an open space where Kilishi is being made. Kilishi is a dried meat ( beef) seasoned with spices and dried directly to the sun after being smoked. I took a picture of it and moved to continue shopping.
Fresh pepper spot
I went to fresh pepper and okra stand to purchase them. I always enjoy morning market because I get value for whatever I'm purchasing.
Okra spot
All ingredients were fresh. I proceeded to buying other food ingredients; periwinkle, onions, cow skin, stock fish, crayfish, tomato paste, curry, thyme, dried fish and maggi.
Food ingredients spot
I also purchased half cup of ogbono for draw soup, the seller blended it for me and I made payment.
Blending process of ogbono
Getting home, I sorted all the ingredients, put them in place and prepared soup. I served the delicious delicacy to my loved ones and stored the leftover in the freezer.

I was exhausted after cleaning the kitchen, I rested for 2 hours and evening was fast approaching.
About to put the soup in the freezer
I couldn't prepare stew anymore, I had to wash the chicken and store in the freezer for next day. I ate dinner and went back to bed and that was it for the day.
