The Diary Game: My Thursday Adventure , Making Hair, Preparing Editaiwa recipes and Other Engagement||18/02025||
It was really a great deal of different activities for the day, as everything went smoothly, and I want to share with you how I spent the whole day.
I hope I'm welcome.
The morning was okay with me. As I woke up from bed, I prepared myself and my children to take them to school very early in the morning before coming back to do other activities at home. I take the family to morning devotion, and after that I prepare the kids and take them to school.
Losing my hair, shot from techno camon 30S
When I came back by 9 O'clock AM, I bathed and went to the salon to retouch my hair in my former salon shop, but when I went to the place, it was not open, so I proceeded to another place, which was the salon one of my friends used to make her hair.
As I was there, the owner of the salon was still handling her customer that I went to see; I waited for her to finish it up.
I first lose my hair before she washed it. I was under the dryer for some time before starting to plait the hair; it took me a long time to finish. After being through with it, I returned home to handle someone elses.

In the afternoon I was preparing food for one of our natives that we used cassava to produce; we call it Edita iwa in the Akwa Ibom language, the South-South region of Nigeria, and its English language name is "wet cassava cheap" or "wet cassava slices" because of how they slice it.
After that I wash all the peeled cassava and cook it before slicing it into the sizes that will be good to eat.

After that moment, I wash it using clean water, then I put it into a plastic basin and put clean water in it and keep it for some hours.
Why should it be inside? Water for longer hours is for the bad.
Why is it necessary to soak the peeled wet cassava? I soak wet raw cassava in water so that it will be safe to eat by reducing its natural cyanide; this will really bring out its taste.
In the evening, I was preparing another meal, soup and garri, for my children, and I personally was okay with that. Editaiwa (wet cassava) is cheap.

Other things that we used to eat with the Editaiwa in the Ibibio-speaking language and cheap wet cassava are:
• Dry fish
• Fresh Fish
• our local pea
So it was a delicious delicacy so far, and I ate it, whereas my kids ate soup.
