My Fish Stew Market Friday

in Market Friday β€’ 3 years ago

This would be my first post in this community, do I need to do a sort of introduction? πŸ˜‡ Yeah, I think I should.

I'm a lady that loves to cook a lot but have been failing to take pictures to show for my market outings which this community is created for.

I don't know how it happened but I remembered to take some pictures today when I went to the market to get some food stuffs to prepare my FISH STEW πŸ˜‹

They may not be professional pictures but please view with me as I take you around my stops at the market to get what's needed for my stew.

But before that, these are the places I walked past while going to where I get my stew ingredients.

Aren't those gowns looking beautiful? 😍

I knew what I went to the market for (my fish Stew ingredients) but somehow my eyes couldn't stare away from those gowns so I took a picture of them. And I think that pink gown would have look nice on me, what do you think? πŸ˜…

I actually stopped to bargain for a Pam slipper

I was walking past this shoe shop and saw a beautiful Pam slippers, I stopped to ask for the price and was willing to buy one if the price was favorable. Yeah, it was a nice slippers but $8? I thought it was too expensive or maybe the money at hand wasn't enough to get it at that time so I walked past πŸ˜…

Fresh tomatoes for my fish stew

I finally got to the part of the market where they sell my fish Stew ingredients and the first on the list was fresh tomatoes. You can see how it is being shaded for sales, I bought two packs for half a dollar.

Fresh pepper for my fish stew

Then I bought some fresh pepper for about 0.3cents, I don't like too spicy meals so I buy lesser pepper for my stew. I added the two ingredients together, bought onions and paid someone to help me grind them with a grinding machine.

A picture of the onions I bought from

I was almost done with buying the stuffs I need but not until I bought the main thing which would complete my stew to be a Fish Stew.

No, I'm not the one touching the fish πŸ˜…

I bargained a price with the seller and she tried to select a bigger fish for me, the fish cost me $1.5 and I thought it was worth it as the tomatoes I bought was a bit much too.

Some Watermelons and paw paw for take home

I don't think there's a day I go to the market and not get some fruits to take home. I have my favorite fruit which is banana but for some reasons I don't know, bananas are a bit more expensive to get now so I bought some watermelon and paw paw instead.

Well, my market Friday wasn't too stressful for me as I didn't waste much time at the market unlike other times. So there you have it, how the market outing was for me to get a fish Stew prepared.

Thanks to this amazing #marketfriday community and to @dswigle for this beautiful idea to share and view some market photos. I had fun writing this.

Thanks for reading and viewing!!!

what I like most is the watermelons parts.
am not a fan of the other guy close to it.

πŸ˜‚ Oya come and take watermelon that I will buy soon in the future πŸ€ͺ

Nice market shopping and now I'm curious to see the Fish Stew done. :)

πŸ˜‚ I didn't remember to take pictures of the stew, maybe another time I prepare it

It's okay. Have a great weekend!

Hope you haven't finished the stew because I'm coming to get mine and please cook rice ooo, you wouldn't want me to lick the stew 🀣🀣

πŸ˜‚ I'm waiting but make sure to bring raw rice when coming... πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Amazing... Not only did you write very well, you also made me laugh while reading it... I think the $8 is good for the pam slippers. Why didn't you get it?

Your images are so lovely.. Kudos..

Hope the stew was delicious oo?

@dreemport directed me to your post

Ahaaa I made you laugh, that's an achievement πŸ˜… I didn't have that $8 to spend at that moment so I couldn't.

Thanks for laughing to my post 😝 and the stew was very delicious, you miss πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Don't worry, you will cook it for me when you come because I really want to taste it and see it truly it was deliciousπŸ˜‹.. πŸ˜‚

Laugh well, my services are expensive now... A stew would cost you $8 πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚ πŸ˜‚... $8? Why is it the exact price of the pam?.. πŸ˜‚

Just tell me you want me to buy the pam for you and stop beating around the Bush. I even wanted to buy it for you before but I have changed my mind because you were about cheating me...

Hi, I am @khoola... also from @dreemport,

Yes, I think the pink gown would look lovely on you!

Tell you the truth reading it felt exactly the same when I was shopping not just shopping but also talking with my wife... pointing at bag, a gown, explaining the prices, it was fun,

I always go to the market with her... she knows where to buy the cheapest and best everything even how much it should be... haggling and everything.

Amazing...

Reading your Blog... reminded me of her a lot.

Thank you!

Awww @khoola its nice to meet you through Dreemport, I'm honored.

And I'm glad you are reminded of your wife through my shopping at the market.

Thanks a lot for reading through and for your lovely comment πŸ‘Œ

It surely is wonderful to go to a market like yours. My grandma loves bananas. We eat quite a bit ourselves. We buy the cheapest ones that is measured by weight. May I know what is paw paw? I've never had any of that before.

I found you on @dreemport.

Looking forward to seeing another post from you.

God bless.

You don't know about paw paw? I guess you don't have it over there.

It's a kind of fruit too, very delicious and crunchy when it's not too ripe and too sweet when it's very ripe πŸ˜€

I'll have you try it one day. untitled.gif

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Nothing good about overripe pawpaw. The crunchiness adds to it.

@victorholyo might know but as papaya.

@victorholyo do you know papaya?

πŸ˜‚This guy is so funny, so you hate the overripe ones like me too... It's alright
@victorholyo just in case you see them go for the nearly overripe or the unripe

You are officially welcome to market Friday πŸ˜‚πŸ˜.
You shop just like me, I might have made a list and budget but often times divert to buy or price whatever appeals to me.
Please send my take home pawpaw.

πŸ˜‚ I think that's just a norm in going to the market, you tend to go off budget sometimes.

Your take home pawpaw on the way 😁

Titus fish my best fish soo far
