Sweet Harissa Chicken Wings

Were they spicy (hot)? Yes
Did my children complain? No

Harissa spice mix and agave were a gift from a friend.

The tupperware marinader is from Sonnie.

Ever tried baking plantain?
It's my fave way to prepare a big batch.

All you need is oil, spices, salt and pepper.
The baking time is dependent on how thick or thin you slice the plantain.

Wazee hukumbuka 🤣

Baked some blueberry lemon cinnamon rolls for my family just to remind myself that I still got it.

Not to worry, seeing how I can bring them back.

Make your stand known.
Silence is complicitness.
Churches need to speak louder!

Has your church/ place of worship spoken against the state of this nation?
I challenge us to call in our pastors, reverends, imams to be on the fore front of calling for change.

Dare I say, they have enabled this for far too long.

Tag your place of worship.

To our fathers, those here with us and those who left too soon.

To those whom this day may be a reminder of not so good memories, sending love.

Let's talk pans.

I love stainless steel cookware for their durability and versatility.
In this video, I yap about the beauty of stainless steel and what to look for when buying. I also answer the common questions I get whenever I use these pans.

Every day is a new day to learn something.
Turns out you can listen to rice to tell if it's cooked.

@irauka_mtaka_yote busy at work.

Did you know this?
Is it something you do?
