Dear Readers,

Happy New Year 2025 🎉

I know for a fact that you have missed me. The truth is, I have missed you all just as much. I don’t go off without updating the blog on purpose, you can blame it on my very busy schedule. But I am here now to wish you a Happy New Year

As we step into 2025, I can’t help but reflect on the incredible journey that 2024 has been. One of the most significant milestones was joining the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).

This new chapter in my career has been nothing short of amazing. I absolutely love my job, and my co-workers are the best—supportive, inspiring, and truly a joy to work with. In addition to my professional achievements, I continued to share my culinary adventures with you all. From the delightful Milky Chin-Chin, to the savory Goat Meat Basmati Jollof Rice, it’s been a pleasure to bring these recipes to your kitchen.

Beyond recipes, I also shared lifestyle content, including my top 5 “Must-Have” Perfumes for Ladies and a review on Biotène. Your engagement and feedback (especially on my Instagram) have been truly encouraging. On a personal note, I had the joy of spending the new year in the arms of my new boyfriend whose love and unwavering support have been a cornerstone of my happiness, and I am deeply grateful to have him in my life. And of course, I made a bad-ass festive rice for the New Year. Even though the recipe is not here, let me share some photos

Looking ahead, I am filled with hope and excitement for what 2025 holds. I plan to continue sharing more recipes, lifestyle tips, and personal stories on this blog. I hope this year brings even more joy, success, and memorable moments for all of us. Thank you for being a part of my journey. Your readership means the world to me. Let’s make 2025 our best year yet!

With love and gratitude❤️,

Hadiza!
