RE: The Joy of Communal Cooking

in Cross Culture3 years ago

Hiring a caterer to handle item 7 is one of the new culture that is being adopted in Nigeria. Initially, cooking use to be the main job of some committee of friends upon the request of celebrants.

Watching as these ladies do their thing is a full package of entertainment on its own. They start a night before the occasion to do their thing. They sing, gossip, drink, eat, work and even pick on eachother.

My guess is, the smile on the face adds extra something something to the tastiness of our Naija Jollof 😝.

Caterers are now taking over the scene but we still have those who rely on groups of women to handle the item 7.

You know them so well! Are you sure you did not participate in this activity at some point in time? 😏😅😅
