Did you play the "papa and mama play" while growing up? 😅
Yeah, I did also😁 with my elder bro and my neighbors (2 young guys). I don't know why but they always appointed me the mama figure in the play where I use trashed tomato paste cans to make crazy meals 🤣
I'd get some quantities of foodstuffs from mom's kitchen to prepare my trashed can soup or jollof rice

Growing up in a typical African environment where dad sits in the sitting room and mom in the kitchen preparing meals. I really never liked that setting. I always wondered how romantic it would be seeing dad helping mom in the kitchen, chopping some veggies and opening some cans, to say the least.
I desire to have a really romantic relationship, so I decided to learn how to make some amazing meals.

Knowing my way around mom's kitchen, due to my skills of getting foodstuffs for our play🙃, I tried making small meals whenever mom is away.
Honestly, they were mostly insipid and I discarded them before mom's return, but over the years I have learned a lot of amazing, of which I am posting one here today.
