Hello, hive friends! How are you all doing? I hope you had a great day. I am delighted to be in your midst once again.
Today, being Monday, February 24th 2025 was filled with activities, but I am glad I accomplished them all. I didn't go to work today; I helped in cleaning our place of worship. After I came back, I saw my mom preparing to cook soup with an amazing plant that I haven't seen before. It is called inine ogwu, which is known in English as green. She got it from our streets due to a lack of vegetables, so she decided to cook with it.
However, I noticed that the leaves were still plenty. She was separating them from the stem, so in order to do it faster, I decided to assist her. I sat down with her to help her. Separating the leaves wasn't easy because she had a large quantity, but we kept doing it. It took us about 30 minutes to finish.
When we were done separating them, i put them inside the bucket and disposed of them. I was happy we finished the task in less time; that's why they say two is better than one, Because without my help, it would be difficult.
So she continued with the cooking. I was waiting patiently for her to finish cooking; actually, my mom is a good and fast cook. After a few minutes, she was done with the cooking, and she served me the soup. I said, "Wow, such a nice soup!" Although I hadn't eaten before, it really looked amazing. So I started eating it, and as I was eating, I discovered it had an amazing taste. It was really delicious, more than I expected, so I ate it happily. Below is a picture of me eating the soup.
After I was done eating, I thanked my mom, and I regained my energy. I was really happy, and I ate to my satisfaction. My friend, maybe you haven't cooked with this leaf; you should actually try it. It's also medicinal and is a really powerful plant used in curing some illnesses. You should research about it.
Finally, that's my eating experience today. I really had an amazing soup. Thank you for reading my blog.
