Huhm, if I were to be left or opportune to plan a weekend for myself, on the night before, I would make sure to turn off my alarm. There's this particular perfect weekend I've been wanting to really bring to reality for a while now. And I would be so happy if I can at least, live it once. I've had it all planned out, I planned the morning differently, same with the afternoon, evening and night. And I think I would be sharing with you how I had it planned out since it still fits perfectly into the contest topic.
In the morning, I would get up from bed, say my prayers, go brush my teeth and then go soak some beans in water, that will be for akara. Akara, also known as bean cake has been on my mind for a while now, I've missed it and I can't afford to buy it here, cause I can be very selective plus, the environment is not that healthy. After I'm done with the beans, I do ground it and add all that's needed, then fry. I would step out to go get bread, on my way, I'd make sure to greet everyone while wearing a smiling face, I would play and say hello to same kids as well. And I'd spend some minutes with the bread vendor before returning back home to devour my bread and akara.
Towards the afternoon, I would go take my bath and get dressed in some casual clothes and I would be expecting few friends which I would have reached out to earlier. I won't be cooking for them, just get them some snacks and drinks while we gist, play music and dance, we would ask each other of our favorite musicians while we play a game, we would play any random song of the persons favorite and ask them to sing along, we would pause the music midway and the personist continue singing it, if you miss a word or pause, you're out. We would just be us, not minding the outside world.
Towards evening, we would be done and I would bade them farewell and thank them, while I make my way back home to make some jollof rice with fish and chicken. I would be playing music while all of that is going on. When I'm done, I'd leave the food covered, then step out and sit under the mango tree beside my window. I would be there for sometime doing nothing, or maybe just thinking.
When it's night and it's getting dark, I would step out my compound and take a walk under the bright stars. I would walk while thinking and being grateful of the week behind me and that ahead of me. I would stop at the malam place, buy some suya and turn back home while I chew my suya slowly. When I get home ,I do shower and then dish my jollof rice and chicken, sit down and make a video call with my friends who came earlier, appreciate them and show them what they are missing—my food. I know they would talk, and say I didn't cook it for them, and all, but i know they won't mean it, we would just laugh it off while l promise them to do so next time I invite them over.
And that, is how messy, warm, quiet and perfect I would love my weekend to be like.
