Stressful Day Ended With Egg Sauce

in Steem4Nigeria • 28 days ago

Hello Steemians!

Good evening everyone from this side.

Today was one of those days that will just drain you completely. Monday stress never even finish, today own come add join.

Work today was too much. From morning till evening, it was one problem to another. My boss was shouting, customers were complaining, system was hanging, and to make it worse, Lagos sun was too hot. I did not even have time to eat lunch properly. I just managed to take gala and coke around 2pm just to hold body.

By 5pm when we closed, I was already exhausted. My head was paining me, my legs were shaking. The traffic on my way back home was another stress on its own. I was inside bus for almost two hours, sweating and tired. All I was thinking in the bus was just to get home, take my bath and sleep.

When I finally got home around 7:30pm, I was so hungry. I did not even have strength to cook something heavy. I checked my kitchen, I saw I have few eggs, tomatoes, pepper, onions and some yams left.

So I decided to make my favorite quick food - Egg Sauce and boiled yam.

I quickly boiled the yam, and in another pot I started my egg sauce. I sliced onions, tomatoes and pepper, fried it small with groundnut oil, added seasoning, and then added my eggs. Ah, the aroma alone woke me up. In less than 20 minutes, my dinner was ready.

I took my bath, served my food, sat down in my parlor with fan blowing me. As I took the first spoon of yam and egg sauce, hmm... all the stress of today just disappeared. Sometimes na simple food dey calm person down.

I ate, drank water, and now I am lying down writing this diary for you all.

Even though today was stressful, I am grateful I still have food to eat and a roof over my head. Tomorrow will be better.

How was your day today? What did you have for dinner? Tell me in the comments.

Thank you for reading my blog
