5 “MUST-HAVE” PERFUMES FOR LADIES
Anyone who knows me will tell you that Hadiza loves good perfumes. This insane love started back in the year 2015 when I joined a group of friends who believed that, a lady can get anything she wants if she is smells good. I was in Uni back then, and it was like a competition between us. It is around that time that I started collecting perfumes and from since then till now, I have gathered a little over 70 bottles. Today I will share with you, 5 “Must-Have” perfumes for you as a lady.

Loose Leaf Tea or Tea Bags?
Tea Lovers will always find themselves in a ‘tea bag or loose leaf’ debate. And if you are team loose-leaf like I am, you probably first started with tea bags before you got introduced to Loose Leaf. And it is the same for me, I started with Lipton, Top Tea, Twinning and Ahmad Tea in that order. Around 2017, there was Batsam Tea which I also drank a lot. But all that stopped the moment I was introduced to Loose Leaf Tea and hopefully, this blog post will convince you to join the Team.

Biotène Review
Unlike many other Mouthwashes that I have used in the past (including Corsodyl), Biotène Mouthwash will never burn you and this is a plus, because it means you have plenty of time to relax and gargle with it, without feeling the urgent need to spit it out. Soon as you use it, your mouth feels lubricated and not for a short while, but for all day long.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024
A new year always starts off with excitement. It’s a chance to think back on the past and plan for the future. The year 2023 was a challenging year for all of us Nigerians, because it started off with the Naira redesign policy from the Central Bank. I remember how crazy it was around this time last year. We literally had to buy the Naira with Naira. I think 10,000 Naira was sold for 3000 Naira or so. And in the midst of it all, we had to deal with preparations for the general elections. And after the elections, everything was so slow. It was as if nothing was moving and everyone was waiting for the new government to come in before things begin to normalize. Gosh, what a crazy year it was!!! But, Alhamdulillah is all I have to say because even with all the drama that 2023 started with, it was also an amazing year for me because I achieved so much, especially career wise.

BLACK TURTLE BEANS AND POTATO STEW
A friend who just returned from Cameroon, brought me some black turtle beans, and you needed to have been there to see the joy all over my face. Once the potatoes are soft, fold in the cooked beans and give it a nice stir.

QUICK CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE
This weekend, it is #NigeriaDecides2023 and I’ve chosen to remain indoors until it is all over. This means more cooking, more baking and more experimenting in the kitchen.

The recipe to this yummy chocolate cake has been in my phone for 4 months now and am sharing it with you today. Continue reading for ingredients and steps

ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE
I made a few changes to the recipe, by deep frying the beef and roasting the tomatoes, tatashe, ginger and garlic. These changes turned this sauce to another level and I have not made tomato sauce any other way, since
