  • Tea for the soul..

    “J’avance et j’avance pas à pas....”comme dirait la jeune chanteuse Frenchie Ivoirienne Denden😄

    Anywhoo a dear soul Sister of mine who was visiting our hometown gifted me with some beautiful tea from Kenya .Every time I enjoy a cup of it I smile thinking of her, thinking of making duahs for her.. It’s interesting how as we get older, when we’ve “lived” a little bit..gone through major and minor trials, thoughtful gifts like this means a lot..

    It makes me think of how lucky we are to still be here, it makes me grateful for those friendship moments when we can talk, be a witness to our growth, talk about our children and be happy for each other. So yeah .. every time I use a tea bag I think of her, of how beautiful is her focus in life, how proud of her accomplishments I am, of the woman she is and keeps on becoming..

    Let’s not take for granted friends gestures, it’s their way of acknowledging their care for us…:)

    Merci Amy🌸🥰

    Current Mood: Tired

    The song: Morning by Jean Baylor member of Zhane

    The place: Andaloss a lebanese restaurant on Sandienery Street in Downtown Dakar..from the outside..mmm nahhh

    But once inside the warm red tones and Marocan theme of the restaurant had Marieme and I thinking: ‘Oh Ok”

    The Service: Badd ..they either need to add people to their staff or teach their current employees on how to be quick and welcoming

    Example: Asked for a glass or water before my meal..didn’t get it until after we had lunch…

    Would I recomend it: Yes because it’s discreet and cosy

    The plus: Andaloss does take away they have a tea salon , pastry shop and a butcher shop..all on Sandienery Street…

    The clientele: business people during the day…

    Till next time Marieme:)

  • I Don’t Want To Believe…..

    I don’ t want to believe that there’s only way of depicting Afrika

    I want to believe that we all are different yet similar in my land

    I don’t want to believe that there are no cool blogs about Africans by Africans

    I don’t want to believe that it all can only happen abroad

    I don’t want to believe that we all have to accept the current vision of our continent

    I don’t wanna believe that there is nothing I can do

    I don’t want to believe that there will be no better days
