Note To Ada Verastic: There’s Rice At Home

One thing that Nigerian parents are famous for doing is telling their children that there's rice at home whenever the children dare to ask for any food outside. It's never any other food that's offered but rice. Rice. Rice. Rice. I have spent a chunk of my life making fun of Nigerian parents, including mine, and now, I find myself as a said Nigerian parent. Does that mean that I can't make fun of Nigerian parents anymore? Well, I still plan on saying and doing some of the things that our parents Read More

So My Mommy Wants Me To Join A Women’s Meeting

The other day I was talking to my mommy and she told me that she had a wedding to attend, but that she was not going to go because the previous weekend, she was on call at the hospital and did not get any rest. She really just wanted to spend this wedding weekend at home on her bed. I agreed with her. Me sef, I don't like wahala, so I'm all for staying home and sleeping. She then went on to add that even if "asks permission" to miss the wedding, she would still have to pay the fine. I'm Read More

That Time My Mommy Became An Importer Exporter

I really just wanted an opportunity to say 'importer exporter' the way my Igbo business men introduce themselves.

My mom has this thing where she comes up with a new business idea. The problem is that my mommy isn't a great business woman, as she has proven many times. Great medical doctor, yes. Business? No. She has stared many Read More

Breastfeeding Breasts Are The Best Breasts!

Let me start by introducing my breasts. They're not huge, but they're definitely not small either. While we're on the issue of breasts, I might as well be as transparent as ever. I'm a 38D. Let me rephrase that: I was 38D before I got pregnant. I was told by many over zealous mothers (read: Solachi) that once I get pregnant, my breasts would explode. Well, I got pregnant and that didn't really happen. They got bigger, sure, but nothing like what I was expecting. I didn't even notice their Read More

If Balaam Was Nigerian (And His Donkey Talked)

Igwe and I are still reading the bible and trying to know God better. Currently, we're in the first book of Samuel. We have not gone as far as we should have because for a couple of weeks, we slacked. I cannot speak for Igwe, but for me, I wish I was a better child of God. I'm disappointed in how many times I dishonor Him in a day. But for now, let's focus on the humor I find in the bible. I especially love comparing some of these stories to the characters being Nigerian. Today, we're looking at Read More
