So my uncle’s birthday was yesterday and I decided to surprise him.. and the entire family...
It was supposed to be A three course meal...but dessert got lost in the market

I usually get nervous making different dishes at the same time for fear of making errors...

So I started with a palate cleanser
Fruit Salad in Tropical Blast with Coconut shaving.
The Tropical blast was basically Chivita (Pineapple and Nectar)..
I had diced watermelons, pawpaws, apples, pears ..drizzled with lemon juice to prevent discoloring

Next: Spicy Gizdodo served with herbs (parsley)

And it was time for main dish
My uncle is a fan of Indian culture...so I decided to make a simple yet popular dish:
Veggies rice and Chicken Curry

So I know it’s meant to be dessert next
But my aunt isn’t a fan of sugary items..
So at their request, I made Spinach stew for them () aka Efo-riro...so they can eat it today ...( with steamed potatoes)

But I ended up having mine with rice and paired it with some pan roasted cucumbers and tomatoes
The tomatoes was already squishy.. and didn’t look picture worthy, but it tasted great

And yeah...that’s how the birthday went down
