Bought nsima

It was sunlight with patches of clouds when I just woke up. My wife was not around that she could prepare something to eat as breakfast. There was nobody to ask where she was. I looked for some potatoes to prepare tea, but there were already finished. There was only left relish, which was cooked on the past day. Instead of throwing that relish to the bin, I just cooked nsima and use that relish. Before taking that nsima my wife arrived. “What were you doing?” she asked me. “I was cooking nsima because you were not around that you could prepare breakfast” I told her. She thanked me for preparing food for myself.

Went to Jakobo village. Soon after taking that nsima, I went to Jakobo village to meet the carpenter who was making my chairs. Arrived at the village at 7am, but I did not find him. His son told me that he was at the garden collecting (harvesting) cotton. I just told him to inform his father that I wanted him to come home and complete the project.

My bicycle punctured. I left Jakobo village for Dyeratu trading center to buy relish. When I was about to reach Dyeratu, my bicycle punctured. I had to foot for almost 500 meters to find a place where it could be mended. After mending, I paid Mk60, which was equivalent to 43 cents. I proceeded to Dyeratu to buy relish. After buying it I went back home. I found my wife taking a bath.

Bought pepper. The Chinangwa village headman’s councilor sent my friend to buy him pepper. The councilor said that whenever he is having meals there should be some pepper for good flavour.
