Bean-Cake

It's like any other day. Well, not any other day actually. It's the first weekday after the election weekend and everyone seems skeptical to step out of their 'fortresses' cause of the tension of the unknown.
Let's be honest. It's not exactly a cue to safety. We all just found a solid excuse not to go to work that day.

Election weekends should be every weekend. All in favor of this say, 'I!'
Yeup. I thought so too.

Anyway, politics is really not my cup of tea *yawns* Food on the the hand, pretty much is.

Okay. Back to my life-changing tale.
So I was walking down the street going over to meet my 'colleague-turned-friend' so we could head to work together. And then, right there...that awesome aroma hit me. I have quite the nose so trust me, I mean it when I say 'hit' me.
I knew that aroma oh so well. It was the belly-saving smell of Akara. For those who don't know this amazing work of cuisine art, kindly click on the link here

Anyway, fast forward to a pack of plantain chips, three cupcakes, another pack of plantain chips and one and a half cream 'duff'nuts, (as my friend calls it...you know like 'DoUGH'. 'EnoUGH'. Anyway, sure you get the idea) I found myself in Mushin, well 'we', found ourselves in Mushin just to get us a bag quarter-full of Akara. And then my day was complete. *sigh*

The thing is, Akara is not your 'everyday-craving-meal'. But when you do crave it, the feeling never goes away till you quench it...with just a taste of one hot freshly-fried ball. And then when you couple it with a loaf of soft Agege bread...oh! *tears of joy*

Again, for those who know not what Agege bread is, my bad. Can't seem to find it in Google/Wikipedia this time. You just have to live with the imagination. It's such a pity you can't share this glorious moment with us.

And that's it for the day. Happy belly, Happy Wit :)




Touching...isn't it? *wipes happy tear*

The #rePlay Series: ePisode 1

The Beatles.
Never been much of a fan but thanks to the 'bigger' bro I couldn't help but get hooked to a few classics.

And today just happens to be one of those days. Got my iPod to blame for that... #rePlay

                                                 

'Na Na Na Na Na Na Na 
Na Na Na Na
Hey Jude!'

Peace...Be Still

Overwhelming...yet reassuring
In a rush...but still so calming

Looking for the right words
Searching for the start point
Tug...Pull
Push...Shove

Feels like a roller coaster
Sometimes my hands can raise no higher
But then I sit...I wait...I wonder
Is it just me or do I feel the walls crashing under?
