Thank you @ladiesofhive for all this interesting questions for the contest, I must confess all your questions brings us closer to our home.
This week questions speaks alot about our choices we may not have thought about it before,
this is an opportunity to think and agree with yourself things that you like and things that you won't do if given opportunity.
1️⃣ Our bodies require nourishment to thrive and we enjoy the taste of food. Keeping that in mind, if you had to choose just one food to eat for the rest of your life, what food would that be and why?
This might look or sound weird to some people, they might wonder why I choose this particular combination of food but then it the food I would choose to eat for the rest of my life. It is "CORN AND PEAR"
source
I know such situation wouldn't happen but if it does then here we go. Whole corn is loaded with fiber and contains vitamin C, B vitamins, magnesium and potassium.
While pear is rich in carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, fixed oil, and crude fibre. It also contains moderate amounts of potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, and phosphorus.
This pear is not the regular avocado pear it is called "NIGERIAN PEAR " or"BUSH PEAR" or "Butter fruit",I think is can be found in just Nigeria or maybe some part of west Africa.
Both combination can be boiled or roasted with salt or without salt.
STORY BEHIND IT
This food reminds me of some years ago where I and my family had to depend on just this food to keep us going. My dad had lost his job for reasons best known to him and my mum was doing a very,very small scale business in our house, it was so difficult to keep up with providing for food and other things.
This food was the only thing we could afford then because it was cheaper and it was sold very close to where we lived then.
We ate this food for a month straight, at first we were tired but then we fell in love with it and couldn't stop even when my father got another job and we started living fine. We made it our brunch and sometimes our snack.
I have done it before I believe I can still do it if the need arises.
2️⃣ We all have chores or tasks that we abhor doing! If you're like most folks, you will put off that dreaded job as long as possible. What is the absolute most dreaded chore/task that you must do? Sum up your reaction to that task with a selfie that expresses your dread of it.
I would have say "LAUNDRY " but I have a washing machine which made it very easier for me to wash. So I would go with "COOKING" in as much as cooking is fun it also comes with loads of stress, depending on what you are cooking. Sometimes you have to stand for minutes/ hours cooking what the family would eat and if you are always in the position to always cook that means it will be done every day maybe twice or thrice a day.
It is mandatory to cook, because one can't be eating out every day, one has to cook at home especially being a mother, a wife or even a sister.
Cooking for me is fun though but sometimes it stresses me out and I would wish it gets cooked by it self while I eat.
Imagine coming back from a stress day work and you have to enter the kitchen to cook damn!
I know a family that doesn't like storing cooked food in the fridge - meaning they would have to cook every day.
Thanks guys for reading and pls drop a few comments 💕💕💕💕
I got a good look at your Nigerian Pear and I am very curious try try a taste if I can find it in any of my stores. It's likely a specialty import since the Canadian climate is not suited to growing this anywhere here. I have an idea where I can find it.
Thanks for sharing an exotic taste @bettybunny
Thanks alot for the opportunity 💕💕💕

Aww🥰I am glad you love them, I guess we are in the same family 😂
If we had to choose just one food, I can see the validity of the choices you would make, @bettybunny! The pear sounds interesting, and of course, who doesn't love corn?
As for cooking......I love to cook but dislike cleaning up the mess, lol! Thank you for participating and have a lovely day!
Aww 💕💕 you too
