This dish is a vivid memory of the first time I had couscous back in Ghana with some Ivorian friends. I did my best to cook this meal exactly the way my Ivorian friends did and I am very happy it worked and tasted almost the same. Hope everyone who tries this enjoys it as much as I did.
Somewhere in Nyaniba Estates, close to the now defunct Christiansborg Hotel, hides a burger restaurant for people of hearty hearts and big appetites. Popularly known for serving expansive burgers, Burger & Relish have been in Ghana for awhile and they look set on staying awhile for the long haul.
My blog had won Top Lifestyle Blog of Africa for 2016 at the African Bloggers Awards! I jumped up screaming in the most girlish manner possible! Ellie my intern looked up sharply at the unpredictable movement .
On June 9th, Uber launched in Accra at the Chinese hotel; Tang Palace. It was a dreary day in Accra as the city got flooded yet again during a heavy downpour. I myself, was caught in traffic which was crawling during rising waters in Kanda. Very scary experience. Naturally, I got there late. I couldn't help but wonder if Uber would consider bringing in UberSUV to Ghana taking into consideration our giant pot-holed roads and flood situations.
Imagine going about life as usual. It’s Saturday morning and you wake up to the enticing vapours of palm-nut soup emanating from your mother’s kitchen. You stretch your body languorously and scratch your stomach in mindless fashion.
You search for your phone to catch up on news on Twitter. As you flip through what you missed during the night, your eye catches on news that violence has erupted in the city and it looks like some incensed people are going house to house killing opposition party supporters. What do you do? Where can you go?
I picked up the Mazda 3 for a full day’s experience which I know wasn't sufficient for a total experience. A week wouldn't have been bad. This was going to exciting I still thought to myself. As a lifestyle blogger I have been approached by brands for an experiential occurrence at one point or the other. Remember Mauritius? It gives me a whole different experience every time.
Doing things together as a couple to build intimacy can come in different forms. It's not just going out to eat or hangout at pubs and joints, but understanding each other's passion and interests. Imagine learning how to play video games with your partner whilst he also learns how to create flatlay product photos which you love to do? Incredible time for knowing more about each other.
I recently invited my friend Emelda Amoah to whom I became acquainted with during the WhatAWoman workshop sessions last year to share how toprepare Tuo Zaafi. Don’t be fooled by her name, she’s a Northerner from the Frafra part of Northern Ghana. When she told me TZ is a common meal eaten in her home I just had to invite her to show how it’s done.
What does it mean to be a woman of influence? How can you be an influential woman? I have asked myself this question many times, finding the answers often by listening and reading podcasts and books by revered authors like John C. Maxwell and Michael Hyatt. But last week Sunday during a special Mother's Day service at church, I received more insight than I thought possible from Mrs Shola Doodo. It was as though God had sent her to speak to me directly.
Here’s an inside look at how beans is sold atthe Beans Joint and at most beans joints in the city. The procedure is basically the same but the taste is always different from place to place. I recorded the ambient noise and conversation exchanges between buyer and seller so you get an appreciation of how streetfood is bought in Ghana.
