Moi…all personal
This is all strange to me…writing, its not like i don’t write or I’ve never written before, I have just never been challenged to write before. I am going to give it my best shot though and hope its worthwhile for us both. I am on my bed, its 11.28pm and I’m thinking what do I write about, on…?!
Okay…I’m going to write about Food, yeah food! I am so passionate about food, I love it. Don’t get me wrong, I will not do just about anything for the sake of food, but whenever I get an opportunity to eat or look at food, my heart misses a beat, lol. I have friends that tell me I fascinate them ‘cos at the taste of food or even the sight of it(talk about fresh tomatoes in the market), I start to tap dance!
Ever wondered what the world would be like without food? I don’t even want to imagine it but funny enough there are several people who don’t have food to eat. For one reason or the other – famine, bad economy, mismanagement etc, people are suffering and longing for a meal. I have a strong desire to feed the world. That is what all this food talk is about. I want to bring smiles to people’s faces by putting food on their tables. This desire is so strong that it scares me, lately its what has been on my mind the most.
I was told I could write anything, so I am sharing with you now what I think, sleep, eat and dream. To feed people. Something else just dropped on my mind- what if I am to feed people with the Bread of Life? One way or the other, I know it will happen, I will feed the World.

Tola,
What a good way to start! Do you know what I just discovered? We have very great writers in Generis, all what we need is a little push. It’s amazing that you write so well.
And about feeding the poor and hopeless, don’t you think this is pointer as to your purpose? If you will start something, it will amaze you at the kind of support you will get.
Well done.

I volunteer…
As the first white rat to be experiment your cooking on…lol.
I’m so pleased at how good your write up came out. No quotes, no history, on banal stuff – food, but yet profound. I guess I’ve been working with people who just bottle up their talents, it’s so nice to see it coming out.
Keep up the good work.

My first thoughts are to “feed the world” with “the bread of life” you will av to be Jesus Christ. Are you up to the task?
My second thought is similar. To love food so much you have to know how to cook. How good are you at cooking?
My third: If this site is going to be talking about food regularly, I’ll really love to visit but definitely not when I’m hungry.
Finally I have to say this “O girl you are talented o!”
