A VISIT TO MY GRANDMOTHER’S PLACE IN THE VILLAGE

avatar


This week before I went back to college because I am presently in college now, I went to visit my grandmother in the village and I spend two days with her. She was happy to see me because since I was at the age of six I left her place and I have not had the chance to visit her. Yes, I grew up at my grandma's place when I was young and she pampers me a lot.

Her village is igbotako,ondo state Nigeria and I will say it’s a nice place and I have a lot of fun with my grandmother.

My grandmother loves cooking with firewood and she believes that food that is cooked with firewood is sweeter and more delicious. I don’t think maybe she is right or wrong but I will have to say she is right because her food is always delicious and I am always craving more after eating it.

On getting to her place that day I was hungry and let her know about it and we immediately prepare firewood together, lit it with a fire and cooked rice because she has stew available already. I help her out by checking on the food on the fire every minute so that it won’t burn up.

After the food was done, I served myself the food which was rice and I enjoy it.

I get to try out different food that day which was plantain that was fried with palm oil and bean cake too which is called “Akara” in the Yoruba language.

Orange which is a fruit I have been craving to take before I got there was something I got to take and I was happy I did .you won’t believe me if I say I ate all this food in a day😂. Well, that’s how much I enjoy myself over there.

In my grandmother's compound, she plants vegetable leaves and I think we all know that and yes the vegetable has a big seed that can be planted and another fresh vegetable will grow from it.

Black leaves which is a leaf that Nigerian use to cook black soup was also planted in her compound and it was nice seeing that.

Another thing she planted was plantain and too bad they are not yet strong for eating I will have cut some to take to college but she promise she will send some to me when they are strong so I don’t have to worry about not eating out of the plantain😂.

She has two chickens two of which she rears and she said by Easter time she is going to kill them😂and use the chicken to make a delicious soup. I can’t wait to eat that because I will be visiting her that very time😊


My grandmother is a hardworking woman and she doesn’t have to buy a lot of things in the market before she cooks because she has most of it planted in her compound and I love that.

It was a nice time with my grandmother and I enjoy my stay with her.

Thanks for reading to the end.
