Oh ...We Crave Puff Puff! :D

Cooking together is a great way to bond with your kids. You can spend quality time together, share stories, and work together towards a common goal. Puff-Puff is a popular West African snack that is similar to a doughnut. Puff-Puff is a delicious snack that is popular in many West African countries, such as Nigeria, Ghana, and Cameroon. People crave Puff-Puff for several reasons:

  1. Puff-Puff is a deep-fried doughnut-like snack that is crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. It has a slightly sweet taste that is very satisfying.

  2. The texture of Puff-Puff is unique and enjoyable. When cooked properly, it has a crispy outer layer and a soft, doughy interior.

  3. Puff-Puff is a popular street food snack that can be found in many West African countries. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed on the go.

  4. Puff-Puff is a staple in many West African households and is often served at special occasions, such as weddings and birthday parties. Many people have fond memories of eating Puff-Puff with their families and friends, which makes it a comfort food for them.Here's a simple recipe for making Puff-Puff:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of flour

  • 1/4 cup of sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt

  • 1 teaspoon of instant yeast

  • 1 1/2 cups of warm water

  • Oil, for frying

Instructions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast.

  2. Add the warm water and mix everything together until it forms a smooth batter. The batter should be thick and sticky.

  3. Cover the bowl with a clean cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest in a warm place for 1-2 hours. The batter should double in size and become fluffy.

  4. Heat up the oil in a deep fryer or a pot. The oil should be hot but not smoking.

  5. Scoop some batter using a spoon and use your fingers to drop it into the hot oil. You can also use a small ice cream scoop or a piping bag to shape the Puff-Puff.

  6. Fry the Puff-Puff until golden brown, flipping them over as needed to cook evenly.

  7. Use a slotted spoon to remove the Puff-Puff from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.

  8. Serve warm and enjoy!

Miscarriage

Miscarriage

I have grown to despise the term "miscarriage". It feels clinical and impersonal, like my loss is being reduced to a medical term. The truth is, my experience was anything but clinical. It was an emotional rollercoaster of hope and despair, a deep sense of loss that still lingers. The word "miscarriage" fails to capture the depth of what I went through and what so many others continue to go through.

New Dad...She Needs You!

One of the most significant things my husband did to support me was to encourage me to take time for myself. He would take our daughter for a walk or watch her while I took a long shower or went for a run. He knew how important it was for me to have a break from the constant demands of motherhood, and he made sure I had the time and space to do so.
