SURVIVAL FOOD IN SCHOOL THAT YEAR

Great Minds,
Today I sat down and what came to my mind was the days in school, the good times and rough times in school. Most especially the days of little or no food. Well, my school days was a mixed one, there was periods that I never lacked anything, it was all rosy and the came a period when it was difficult for me so much that to get was by serious struggle, I called that period that year.

Yes it was a particular year, and a particular time we were writing exams, things suddenly became tough no money was coming out from my parents who were very supportive. Well, man must survive and I must finish school the way and manner, so it was time to feign for myself, I started managing and skipping meal just to meet up.

GARRI, SUGAR AND GROUNDNUT

(Picture of garri, sugar and groundnut I took today)

There is this wonder food that did the job, it was the survival food. Most Nigerian students who come from a not too well to do family can relate very well.
The food is garri, groundnut and sugar, some may not know what garri means it is gotten from cassava. The meal is prepared by pouring the garri into a plate, put some cubes of sugar and either pour the groundnut into the mixture or eat groundnut after a a spoon of the garri.
This food can last you for a good time and also give you enough strength to carry you till the next day. You can take it even in the night as we read and prepare for exams.

Today as k remember, these things I became so excited and thank God that I survived that year. So I decided to take the food today, I took it today not because no alternative as it was that year but as a remembrance. If you are out there and things are rough with tou, please don't give up it will be over and things will turn out for good for you eventually. Be happy and make the best use of the time available to you now.

Live sweet and praise God
