Market Friday: The Everyday Market

avatar

It's Friday again and it's time to show our market tour. Let's go!

The market I visited is commonly known as "everyday market" and that's because it runs daily and has no restrictions. People make use of the Market to get their daily food items. Its location is not far from my street, so it's always advantageous to me(I don't need to pay a transport fair)

First of all, I'm a bachelor and I like eating home meal food, cooking is less expensive to buying food from restaurants, so I love to cook for myself always.

I took a walk to a nearby market to get some food items which I'll use in preparing okra soup.


Where I bought okra

The okro looks so fresh and I couldn't resist it, so I stopped by and bought. The spot was owned by a young lady with children.


crayfish

I bought some Crayfish here, they were a bit high in price but I made sure I haggled it down to my own price🤗


Fresh fish spot

This was where I bought a bigger fish. As you can see on the photo, the woman is selling almost everything on the table, she has fish, fresh Pepper and tomatoes, okra, onions and yam(yam was not covered on this photo). I know that if she sees opportunity to be selling clothes, she would do that on same table. Lol😂.
I bought only fish from there and left.



I entered this spot to buy things like dried pepper, seasoning cubes, etc.
The woman has a lot of things lined up on her table, she has rice, beans, groundnut oil, palm oil, melon, etc.

Finally, there are some soups I can't prepare without adding pumpkin leaf. I moved straight to the spot that has the freshest of pumpkin leaf and bought a good quantity.

I prepared the food within 1hour when I got home. The food tasted well and I had sweat all over me when I was eating...to tell you how delicious it is.

Feel free to write yours, check @dswigle article to get more info

Thanks for reading this🥰

I love eating okro soup, it softens my bowls and makes me feel satisfied. Preparing okro soup is very easy as you said and saves money too compared to other kinds of soup like Afang and Ofe Nsala. No wonder many bachelors like you @kingsleyy love it. Keep making good posts here.

Thank you! You got it very well. OKRO soup is very cheap to prepare, it's one soup that I don't need to spend much before getting it done.

Thank you for reading and commenting

Hello! Hello! Market Friday is running so late this week, I was under the weather a bit and I will be out of town for about ten days. I apologize for the delay in answering and I hope you know how much I appreciate the great participation. I will be busy while I am gone, so I put #MarketFriday on Vacation for this week and next. You are welcome to participate, a lot of people do, but, I might not be able to comment all as my time is not my own for this time. I will probably upvote all when I get the time, but, I wanted to be fair and let you know.

I try to let people know how much I appreciate their participation in #MarketFriday! Even though I get many on a weekly basis, each one is read and enjoyed. Last week, I learned about a traditional wedding ceremony that follows Jewish laws and traditions. Interestingly enough, it was not in the post but in the comments between us discussing the post. Interaction. It was written by @tali72 who is a transplant to Israel. I enjoy learning about the world and how it is to live in your corner of it, and if there are solutions to making it better in any way. I find it interesting to compare, not by the world's standards, but, by how we find the quality of our life with different indicators than the world does. It is not always about the wealth in money, sometimes money means very little when there is no value behind it. You cannot buy health although you can take care of what you have. Being educated isn't always about schooling, but acquiring knowledge and using it for the better good and happiness of the society you are living in. It is with great pleasure that I read through this and all of the posts, with these thoughts in mind.

Don't miss the small things in your life, they usually make no noise but can be indicators of bigger things. I enjoy learning more about you and hope you feel the same, that is why I find it important to take the time to read a couple of #MarketFriday posts and leave a genuine comment. It is important for a community to do this, learning about others, and getting to know each other. The fun is in getting to know people and making a positive contribution to community life. All this fun and money too. What is not to love? That is one of the reasons I joined Hive. How about you? :) I leave you with the guidelines. I hope you are having an amazing week!


Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how:


Rules of the Road to Join #MarketFriday!


  1. Go to the market, or anywhere that you pay money for a service. It can be a movie, an auction, or even a museum. Wherever money is exchanged for a service or product.
    Take pictures! Be creative!
  2. Tell us a little bit about the market or the event. What brought you there? What did you buy? How much did it cost? Was it expensive? Did it go up or down? A scroll of pictures with few words doesn't usually work.
  3. Post the pictures. Of course, you should tell a little bit about the ones you post, it is too difficult to guess about some.
  4. Use the MarketFriday Community Platform to post (#hive-196308) This is not required but appreciated.
    PLEASE Drop the link into the MarketFriday comment section so I can find it!!
  5. Following me and reblogging the post would be appreciated, but not a rule, more vision for more views on the #MarketFriday posts!
    7. You must put #MarketFriday by @dswigle somewhere on your post.

As always, please remember! #MarketFriday loves you!
