I am not the sort that people should depend on when they&#8217;re really hungry &#8211; unless I&#8217;m just gonna make them a bowl of cereal. In the time I would use to cook one meal, you would have already had breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And even snacks in between. Anyway, I have been cooking moi moi since 1pm on Sunday. It is past 12 AM on Tuesday and I just got done. Don&#8217;t ask me how that happened. Just keep in mind that it took me 8 hours to wash the beans.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Fast-foward to how I found out I&#8217;m having twins.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_JGw_f7aCtEE\/SIVtIDIiDxI\/AAAAAAAAAQM\/6g1Ixo-gA90\/s1600-h\/DSC_0371.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5225702927680802578\" style=\"FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_JGw_f7aCtEE\/SIVtIDIiDxI\/AAAAAAAAAQM\/6g1Ixo-gA90\/s320\/DSC_0371.JPG\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>I put half of an egg in each moi moi. So there I was, throwing half an egg in each moi moi when I noticed this twin egg. Two chicks would have hatched from this egg. In case you didn&#8217;t know, I have always dreamt of having twins, so finding this twin egg was a sign. You know what I did? I didn&#8217;t put the egg in any moi moi. I ate it! Yeap, I sure did. I even prayed over it before eating. As the Lord has made two chicks (yolks) in this egg, so shall one of my eggs produce two [identical] babies. Amen. So now, I&#8217;m convinced that I will be having twins.<\/p>\n<p>For the record, I am not currently pregnant. And I&#8217;m not trying to get pregnant. In fact, I am not doing <strong><u>anything<\/u><\/strong> that can make me pregnant &#8211; all pun intended. But when I do become pregnant, I will be having twins. If they are the same sex, I would prefer for them to be confusingly identical.<\/p>\n<p>All that I can say to you wonderful readers is that you need to start saving money for my twins. Open up special bank accounts for them if you have to. On second thoughts, you don&#8217;t need to save the money. Just start sending the gifts immediately. <em><strong>Sigh.<\/strong><\/em><br \/><em><\/em><br \/><strong><em>***Rubbing my tummy***<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think I hear some sounds in my tummy; they must be sounds of my future twins kicking.
