Naija Weekend


It's Nigeria's Independence Day (anniversary) on Monday - October 1st and today is the first day I've felt home-sick in such a long time. Actually it was because a friend was telling me what he had for lunch in the office all week in Lagos i.e. Monday - yam pottage, Tues - this, Wednesday - that....Friday - Iyan and Efo Riro with snail and meat. Before I order that one to be delivered to my office in this Jand, we would have seen a few more independence days. Arghhh, well he calls me an Abolounjeku and I called him an Abaiyalasepoku! LOL i.e. grubby do calling grubby do, grubby do! And on that note, another friend (YYTX - lol) is telling me on msn that she is craving suya. I should send her that Suya Video on YouTube to tickle her fancy.

So, currently listening to TY Bello's album courtesy of DonChiChi (fellow-blogger) and wondering what I should put up today.

First off, congrats Peridot and Ruby! They are featured in this month's TL WA Magazine (True Love West Africa). See P&R on the pages below.



One of the two co-founders (as I don't know whether she is Peridot or Ruby), has a blog - check it out "Low's Mental Floss"

This is really a "name-dropping" post oh - teehee!

So:

Time Out Nigeria - the new-ish Magazine soon to be launched. We've all heard of the famous Time Out Magazine used as a guide for going out, eating out, drinking out, travelling out, anything out! Well now, there's a Naija version. Click to see the website.



For Sushi Lovers in England - Yo Sushi offer here!


Mode Men Magazine - Don't get it twisted! First there was MADE Men, now we have MODE Men Magazine (not sure in which order). I smell some competition here, but hey I'm just a keen reader. The Mode Mag looks hot though but I've got nothing but love for my friends at MADE. Keep up the good work guys!

Who the hell is YYTX.... Get it right before you get it twisted. I'm still craving my suya, but to make you feel worse, I had eba and Ila-asepo with meat, oxtails and all the good stuff for dinner two nights ago......
