Weekday Rice Fills You, Sunday Rice Heals You

in CCC3 days ago

If you grew up in a home where Sundays are for visitors, you already know how this goes.

Weekday rice is like "let's just eat and go" But Sunday rice is another thing entirely. It’s an event. It starts with the cooking, On Sundays there’s no rushing. The stew fries slowly... We’d grind fresh pepper. The chicken is seasoned properly. There’s even a debate about which rice to cook, jollof rice or white rice with stew. That’s when you know it’s serious 😂

Sunday is visiting day. And there is that one family member who only remembers you on Sundays 😂 Nobody leaves hungry. The rule is simple, if you come on Sunday, you’re eating rice. Not small rice. Mountain rice. With chicken and extra stew on the side.

And the taste? It’s the same rice and same recipe we use other days. But Sunday rice tastes like joy. Maybe because there’s no pressure. We eat with family, we gist and laugh. Even the leftovers on Monday feels special.

It’s not just food. It’s love served on a plate. It’s how we say "you’re welcome" without words. It’s how we gather, even when life scatters us the rest of the week.

So if you ever pass a house on Sunday and smell stew from the gate... You’ve arrived at the right time😉
HAPPY SUNDAY ❤️
