Weddings oh weddings! I love weddings, especially the quickly accompanying honeymoon romance. I love the wedding night excitement and the beautiful love tonic that stimulate the couple in the early days of marriage life.
Seeing how quickly the fun, spark and romance in many a young marriages dies off, I decided to carry out a research of my own to study the causes of early marriage cracks. Today's post is one of the findings I made from my research.It has been said repeatedly, especially here in Africa, that a lady who doesn't know how to cook is heading for a hell of a marriage life. Also, it might interest you to know that being a good student of mama's kitchen ain't completely a way out of that hell; in fact scoring an A from mum's school might actually be a snare of some sort.
Okay let me explain! Now, it is obvious that a lady who can't cook simply doesn't stand a good chance of getting a guy to propose (at least that is 99% certain here in Nigeria and most African countries as of today). So it means the said growing love relationship is nipped at the bud, that is the guy quickly runs away because he finds out that Cinderella cannot cook. Well the good thing about this is that the lady's deficiency is very glaring such that the guy does his worst fast enough to prevent a heartbreak.
But as a lady who can cook very well (though with a certain clause) you might be in for a problem. So what's the clause? Yes, if you can cook ONLY YOUR MUM'S MENU very well then you are definitely going to enter that trap. Now here's how the drama goes.
Cinderella scored an A from the school of Mummy's Super Recipes; prince charming comes along and learns how skills Missy is in the kitchen after tasting a couple of her delicacies; the wedding plans are fast tracked and ROYALTY OKASIONS is contracted to plan the wedding (*oh! Royalty Okasions is my wedding planning outfit* ;-)) and a grand wedding is organized. Fast forward >>> to 3months later, prince charming is driving off for work and is not feeling too happy. Wondering why he is unhappy? he gets to find out that in the last week or so his meals have been quite of a routine and this morning's was another repetition of the usual meal circle. Funny enough, he discovers that he is even missing his own mothers meal and of course some of the varieties he enjoyed from the different eateries in town.
(to be cont.... tomorrow, keep a date with me)
