Ijebu Gehl's Bite of the week...

This Shameless Ijebu Gehl is proud to say that she was born with more than one sweet tooth! Yes oh! I loooooooooooove me some good cakes, brownies...whatever, if its sweet best believe I want to eat it!
I guess every week I will have an update on my favourite bite (what i enjoyed eating)..This week's lucky food item is the Red Velvet cupcake....known for their distinct red colouring and cream cheese icing, these cakes/cupcakes have my mouth watering on sight alone....

Why do I describe myself as an "Enigmatic Nigerian"?


Below are definitions relevant to who I feel I am. By ethnicity I am a Nigerian but by thoughts, words and upbringing I am a citizen of many places. I am on both open minded yet hard to somewhat understand. I wear a smile on my face, yet behind that mask is the ability to have random thoughts running in my head. I am both a simple and complex person. Spontaneity is part of who I am, yet Nigeria is core in my identity.....above all, I am a creation of the Most High, seeking to find my purpose on thi earth.

How This Blog Came About....

Within the confines of this web page, I, a twenty-one year old Nigerian girl, plan on emptying my thoughts and random musings....

For a while now, starting a blog has been on my mind but sheer laziness has prevented my actual doing so...Finally, after years of stress and worry, some of which involved starting an online diary, I decided to take the risk. The title came to me as I sat on my bed yesterday, knitting and  debating whether or not a blog would be a good idea...I hope its worth it....
