PEPPERSOUP HANGOUT WITH @OLUJAY AND @T-GOLD
Last weekend, I decided to give my friends a treat by sponsoring a dinner for them. So we decided to go out to a pepper soup joint to enjoy ourselves.
I budgeted not to spend more than $7 on 3 plates i.e. at most a plate of pepper soup should be $2 but when we got to the canteen, we found out that a plate of pepper soup was $3. We didn't know what to do and wanted to find someplace else but @olujay decided to support us with an extra $2 so that our plan would not get shattered.
My plate of pepper soup
The image above was the plate of pepper soup that was served to me, it contained about 5 to 6 pieces of goat meat. The soup was not as spicy as I was expecting it to be. It was not as good as where I usually get pepper soup in Lagos, and it was even more expensive. In Lagos, I get a plate of pepper soup for $1 with a medium size piece of goat meat, but this was about $3.
We wanted to have fun with each other, to create memories, and also @olujay was travelling back home, so it was more like a little send-off for him too. Olujay got a very big cash fish with his pepper soup. Below is a picture.
That fish was massively big, and I must confess, my eyes was entering into olujay's pepper soup. Great for me too, his eye was entering into ours also and he wanted some goat meat from @t-gold and I. So we did trade by barter, we gave him some pieces of meat from our plates and we took slices from his massive fish.
For the drinks, we decided to buy two bottles of 5alive orange juice. The transparent bottle has a weight of 85cl and the other has a weight of 78cl but they are of the same price and quite a little difference in the taste. But I must say they taste good and did not cost up to $2 to get them both.
Three of us shared the two bottles and we were filled. We felt it was way cheaper compared to buying some other drinks. Moreover, we don't have a lot of money on our disposal so, we are trying to manage with what we have.
I was done finishing my pepper soup, and I thought @olujay needed some accompaniment or someone to assist him to finish up, so I thought to join him. You can see me tapping some grace from his plate of pepper soup in the picture above. Doing my duty as his friend, if I don't help him out, who will?
To conclude... Here is one last group photo I need to share here!

Hi, am confused about the hive learners community.
If you can help me I would appreciate it.
Can anyone at all post or is only those users who have been accepted into your programme.
And what types of posts can a user make in this community.
Do I also need to be verified before i can post here? If yes what do I need to do to get verified.
You can post in Hive learners at any point but we most likely support verified authors.
My programme is another topic on its own and doesn't concern posting in the communities.
Oh ok. So how do I get verified?
You should visit the community discord server
Oh ok thanks for clarifying
Happy to help boss
Lol. This my oga sabi enjoyment oh! But this one u dey manage funds like this, how u come want us to do na?
Nice one though! At least once once, we just gats replenish, and it shouldn't cost a fortune!
With this we know who we go vote as the Minister of Enjoyment in the upcoming elections!
Your boy is loyal!
My oga, I seriously low on cash at the moment so man has to manage funds oh.
Omoh does being a Minístrel of Enjoyment comes with weekly payments?
We all have low moments shall. No worry, e no go long. Though my own don dey long too much shall, but still hopeful.
Minister of Enjoyment na serious position oh, since must live by example, na weekly pay and steady trip to Dubai 🤣😂
Omoh brother! when I go start work?
Once once, persons gats unwind o... life is already hard enough.
If we ever have Hive elections, no one can compete with him.
Greetings, boss.
Greetings olujay. Men need to rest, we dey try!
You are a good friend, helping a fallen soldier to finish his meal hehe. I'm glad you were able to enjoy some good time before your friend's trip. When we go out with friends, the important thing is to have a special time, regardless of how much money we have or not.
Yeah. Having a good time is necessary oh. But while enjoying ourselves we shouldn’t put ourselves in financial issues, we should only do what our pockets can carry.
We spend most times indoors working, so we figured "what the heck? we should have fun." And there you have it now. Three pals chunking down meat and fish and spoons of pepper soup. It's important to bond and have special times too.
Fada Lord👁️👁️🥱🥱🥱🤔🤔 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Woootttt 👁️😂😂
I am also planning on a travel to see my mum, maybe you guys should organize my own sendforth ... hahaha 🤣
What a gathering with goat 🐐 meat and fish 🐠 🐟 pepper soup ...
I sight you guys over there ..enjoy yourself while the stock lasts..lol
I also sight your duty 😂 as a friend, tapping grace from @olujay , after all, there is love in sharing 😂
Happy pepper soup day guys 😂😂👏👏
🤣
Who is organizing sendforths o...😅
We ususally do not go out often, so it's in times like this that we spur ourselves to go out and enjoy life a little. Life shouldn't be all that hard.😁
Why should I not help a friend in need of fish? After all, @starstrings01 begged me...😅
😂😂👍
Sure..life shouldn't be hard
Self treat is cool sometimes
Weldon 👍... enjoy with your Paddy
Lol
Tapping grace from people's food is one of my special talents... but nobody is allowed to tap grace from mine!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nobody is allowed to tap grace from you, huh? Hahaha.... that's reminds me, when is the physical hangout coming abeg, for hivers in Lagos? Let me start doing rehearsal on how to tap grace from you come that day 😉😂🤣
That is true oh.. We should start planning it now..
Maybe everyone coming would make a donation of 50HBD per person 😂.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
50 HBD per person ....then I should be the secretary/the treasurer of the event pls 😂😂🤞
Greetings @starstrings01 😊💕
I can see you are really enjoying yourself with your friends. That's really so cute rich kids 😀😀. Anyways, you should have tried buying chivita active since it's really more nutritious and tasty than 5 alive popcan. I actually find those orange chaff irritating though.
Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla and I hope you have a great day ahead 💕😀💕
I think it's because you find all that orang pulp irritating, that's why you'd prefer Chivita active. They are both great drinks, but the pulp one seems to call on me everytime. There is actually an alternative: the pulp drink has a pulp-free one that tastes just as great.
Wow! Rich kids dn Sabi all 5 alive and Chivita drinks... Nice one boss.. I get hope say me self go drink all these kind drinks one day sha
Thanks for your lovely reply @olujay and i hope you have a great day ahead 💕❤️💕
😅
Shebi we dey see all these rich kids dey drink am... na why I sabi am. If not for them...😁
Lol.... Yeye guy😂😂😂😂
I didn't know they call it chaff.. thanks for the new word.
Actually I have no problem with the chaff, in fact I like it. But come to think of it, 5alive active would have been nicee.
Where are you sef? When will you take me out to eat pepper soup? Let me tap into that blessing too 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂 I couldn't stop laughing and I can imagine how fun it would be with you guys together.
I love taking my friends out too for a treat and they are always happy with that. This is definitely good some days.
