In fish..add carrots & potatoes, in chicken...add carrots & potatoes. Carrots is like their traditional magic ingredient. Carrots not only provide the essential vitamins but also add 'colour'/garnish the food making it visually appealing.

Don't joke with lack of exposure or masomo. Mine opened a tea bag and poured the content in the Tea solution then went ahead to ask the waiters for a sieve. The akili ndogo in me advised me to walk out in shame and come back after the sieving exercise is over. Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

Githeri is also nice. Lots of protein (beans) and carbohydrates (maize). You only need to add some veges to make it balanced diet. You can even throw in some nyama.

For fear of recriminations I will not talk about the mix of rice,meat, potatoes, spinach, carrots (yes carrots), ndoma and cabbages served usually every day except bad chapati days. It usually looks like you have one big ugali in your plate. Woe unto you if you get served last and you have to taste that dark mix of the burnt sufuria. hiding.  Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.
