Just because I love cooking… 😌🍲
I’ve been craving catfish pepper soup for days now. So yesterday, I told myself, “Oya, go out this evening, spoil yourself small. It’s been a while you stepped out alone to enjoy life.” 💃🏽✨
In fact, I even posted on my WhatsApp status asking who’s interested in a catfish pepper soup date… and of course, people showed interest 👀😂
But then another voice whispered, “Why not just stay at home, cook it exactly how you like it, with correct pepper and everything complete?” 🤭
Meanwhile, the ‘soft life’ version of me was shouting, “Please go out! Dress up, sit somewhere nice, let somebody serve you for once!” 😂
But my inner chef said, “Why should I go and pay for something I can cook better? In this economy?” 😭
Guess who won?
My inner chef, as usual 👩🏽🍳🔥
So yes, I ignored everybody, stayed at home, cooked my own pepper soup, added pepper with confidence, adjusted seasoning with authority, and enjoyed it like a queen 😌✨
Lowkey, I don’t even think any restaurant would have satisfied me like that 😭
At this point, should I just accept my fate like this?
Am I the only one that plans to go out but ends up cooking instead? 🤷🏽♀️😂
Be honest, if you were one of the people that replied my status, would you forgive me? 😭🤣
And which one would you have chosen — eat out or cook at home? 👀
