Good day, amazing Steemians!
It’s finally the weekend, and I’m truly grateful for the days that have passed. There’s something comforting about weekends they give us time to breathe, rest, and enjoy the little moments.
My morning started just like every other weekday, calm and familiar. For lunch today, I decided to prepare jollof rice and fish . Let me take you through how the magic happened.

I began by blending my pepper, crayfish, ginger, and garlic using my little grinding clay pot. Next, I sliced my fresh tomatoes and onions on the chopping board, parboiled my rice, and set it aside. I also steamed the fish with seasoning and cubes, keeping it ready for later.

Once all the preparations were done, it was time to cook. I fried all my condiments on low heat until the aroma filled the kitchen such a lovely aroma ,Then I added the fish stock and some water, allowed it to boil, and gently stirred in the parboiled rice. In just a few minutes, my delicious jollof rice was ready, perfectly cooked and inviting.

While I was busy with lunch, my mum helped prepare my son. He had already bathed, so I served him bread and tea for breakfast, which he really enjoyed. Afterward, I dressed him up, packed his lunch, and off we went.
Later in the day, I did some laundry and rested And yes, I slept really well today . I woke up refreshed and enjoyed my lunch. My mum later went to pick up her grandson from school. After his bath, he slept off immediately. When he woke up in the evening, we spent quality time playing and singing nursery rhymes, filling the house with laughter and joy 🎶💖.

All in all, it was an amazing day no stress, plenty of rest, and lots of happy moments. Truly grateful for days like this.
Have a lovely weekend, Steemians!
