Greetings everyone!
You are once again welcome to my blog space, and I'm glad to inform you that your presence is highly appreciated.
Today I would like to share my weekend experience and how I managed to be productive despite all odds.
I found myself in the village, and I couldn't think of how to enjoy my limited stay in the village other than to help myself get granulated cassava and other native food.
I was desperately in need of 'Garri', also known as Granulated Cassava, but the problem I encountered was that I had to go to the farm and harvest the cassava, botanically known as 'Manihot Esculenta'.
As someone who has left the strenuous activity of going to the farm for a long time. I found it very difficult, but since there was no one to help me out, I had to bear the pain and carry out the farm work.
Getting to the farm, everywhere looked bushy, and I had to use my hoe to harvest the cassava. It took me up to an hour to get the job done, but I finally harvested as many baskets as I could.
When I finished harvesting the cassava, I encountered another problem: transporting it back home. Because the site where I cultivated the cassava was in a remote area. I had to use a wheelbarrow to bring them back home.
I did what I did because I believe that a lazy man doesn't deserve to eat. Nobody would have done it for me because I'm not paralyzed or handicapped in any way.
With the money I would have wasted on buying an already refined granulated cassava in the market, I was able to save the money for other things I will need in school.
The pictures below are the final product of the whole processes.
You can decide to drink it with sugar and milk if you are hungry or use it in eating soup of any kind.
Thanks so much for reading through. Please share and drop your comment in the comment section.
