Unending fun…still of Three Crowns Milk and the 2017 mom of the year award.




This is one moment I greatly worry that my pen might be unable to express the depth of excitement and gratitude I feel in my heart towards Friesland Campina, makers of Three Crowns Milk.

Great things indeed come in little packages. From buying a promo pack of Three Crowns Milk, I ended up as one of the 6 finalists of the 2017 mom of the year award.  This has put me on the path of ‘mindful fitness’ and with all my family members now tagging along to Saturday dance aerobics class, the excitement is endless.  

Yesterday, my daughters and I went to check out Best Western plus along Iyanganku, Ibadan, venue of the Three Crowns Milk sponsored buffet. My girls got home to announce that the restaurant is splendid and superb! This sure stirred the atmosphere in the house – My Mazi, Myself, 2 kids, 2 Ladies and 3 uncles. A small family you say. lol

My little girl woke up this morning and asked, is it today that Three Crowns Milk is buying us lunch? Just like kids! She wanted to be sure. We put plans in motion. Light breakfast, Fasting if you can, empty shiny pots, idle cooker, et al.

To say that we had a splendid time is an understatement. I will let the pictures speak. The laughter, the family time, the jokes, the sound of the water falling from the fountain, having to select food from a wide variety of sumptuous meals in a state-of-the-art restaurant was indeed a wonderful experience. I even played an upright wooden piano. There was no way i would have missed that!

Funny some months back my mazi said there is a new hotel in Ibadan we should visit. We went sampling and thought it would be a nice place to bring our household to when there is ‘free cash’. Lo! We bought a promo pack of Three Crowns milk and that was it! Miracles still happen I tell you!

Keep buying Three Crowns Milk and watch them fill your life with beautiful stories and memories.

Thank you again, Idy and co. @ 3Crowns Milk.

This must be after the third serving!


I and my first love!

For Posterity Sake

In most parts of the world, the month of May begins with 'workers day' holiday. There is dignity in labour they say and this is because workers (taxpayers) expectedly contribute to the GDP of every country alongside entrepreneurs’. All things being equal, workers should be able to at least live decently from the remuneration received at work. Growing up, I always wondered what people had to do daily in the office. The same way my six year-old wonders what I am endlessly typing on the computer. In fact, according to her, my work never finishes because ‘I type and erase and type again all over’. I recall my dad recount with pride the joy with which they worked in building the ‘‘new Nigeria’’ following the independence of Nigeria from British colonial masters. The take-home-pay could indeed take one home and provide the bare necessities of life. One could see how little activities in the work place added up to the bigger picture and goal of the team.  Be it white, blue,

Hobbies of Then and Now...

Image
Memoirs Recently I was in a training session where participants were asked their hobbies. Hobbies like Cooking, Photography, Football, Travelling, and Learning were mentioned. This got me thinking about hobbies now and hobbies years ago. Growing up some thirty something years ago in South East Nigeria, I was an adventurous child who tried all sorts from tree climbing to baking, snail hunting, learning the piano, philately, photography, knitting, sewing, drawing, painting, and flower gardening. I had collections - coins and paper money no longer in use, sea shells, Pacesetter novel series, stamps. Today, I have over a thousand stamps in my stamp album (see some few clips below)  and oh my, I lobbied for stamps in secondary school like my very life depended on it. I could exchange a meal for a postage stamp back then. Themes on stamps taught me a lot about – African nations, Animals, Anniversaries of queen of England, Birds, Cultural dance, Festivals, Flowers, Inventors and Inv

The Wind and the Water

Image
  I live in the South West of Nigeria and right now it appears the North East trade wind is sweeping across again to collect ‘something’ it left behind earlier in the year. Layers of dust. Chapped lips. Harmattan haze. Flight cancellations and diversions. Low humidity. Nose bleeding. Cough. Flu. Wildfires are all aftermaths.    When the wind blows gently and lightly, it has a cooling and soothing effect especially in the country side and beach areas but when strong with violent gusts, it carries anything on its way and cause disaster. My tall, slender, papaya tree succumbed regrettably yesterday at the passing of a not-so-strong wind. Wind of prosperity. Wind of adversity. Wind of doctrine. Wind of promotion. Wind of revival. Wind of restoration. Wind of deliverance. Wind of recession. Wind all around! Winds cause waves when they transfer their energy to the water and in a matter of time a storm is stirred as the waves ride majestically on the water foaming and ri
