My choice of soup brought in lots of realizations.







 My choice of soup brought in lots of realizations.
 -Nafisat

 Today l ran out of what to cook for dinner and l said to myself as l dash into the market that anything that catches my attention first is in for dinner.

 And whoah l found myself in front of the lgbo woman selling varieties of soup ingredients. I ordered for ogbono blended with egusi,crayfish,pepper,stock fish my ugu leaves and e.t.c The woman beside me kept lamenting.

"Madam you sabi cook this soup" "Madam your husband be igbo" I smiled at her and said"l eat varieties of soups Madam"
 And conversation ensued between the woman and l.
 She never thought of learning to cook and eat from other cultures and so she was surprised to see a yoruba woman ordering for igbo soup ingredients in a yoruba land.
 I knew I had to write about this on my blog because my conversation with the woman was an eye-opener for her and for me.
 I never know who might end up catching the bug too. "Cook and eat from another ethnic group"

 God loves Nigeria so much for the country is richly endowed with lots of varieties of soups from different ethic groups,which we can learn to cook and eat from.
We don't have to force down through our throats only our ethnic soups especially when we are tried of it ,when we have numerous recipes from others.
 Surprisingly we may even prefer other ethnic groups meals to ours. I see this as a way of uniting our various ethic groups as one .
 For me it is a way of having varieties to choose from,rather than remain a boring woman who cooks and eats what she is familiar with only.
 "Variety is the spice of life"

 God has a reason for providing us with various unique and diverse soups and meals and therefore it is the duty of every woman to enjoin in the bountiful blessings.
