The Unveiling of Azeezat, also known as @thatfooddielawyer, on MEET THE GUEST hosted by E PLUS the Storyteller.


E PLUS The Storyteller: Azeezat Adejare Ifemide..(@thatfooddielawyer) You're welcome to E PLUS the Storyteller Blog..

We are excited that you're here!😄


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: Thank you...
It's a delight to be here!


E PLUS The Storyteller: Awesome!.

Now, you are one unique individual who is fast cutting a niche for herself, especially in the the food sector because one can hardly talk about Azeezat Adejare Ifemide without mentioning those exciting and mouthwatering meals she brings into the homes of billions of people..

Tell us all about it🙂


ADEJARE AZEEZAT IFEMIDE.: Wow...

My journey with food goes all the way back to my childhood.

I was introverted by nature and quickly found the kitchen to be my "comfort space" very early on, in life.

I would cling to my mother, who is a treat cook herself, whenever she was cooking and I started to learn how to make basic Nigerian meals at the age of 5. By the time I was 10 years old, I was able to independently handle a meal of up to twelve people.

As I grew older,.cooking became the most potent medium through which I expressed my feelings and spread the abundance of love locked inside my soul.. 😊

E PLUS The Storyteller: Wow! Quite interesting... So you found your inspiration, early enough?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: Absolutely!


E PLUS The Storyteller: Now, let's talk about your recipes, @thatfooddielawyer.

Why are they so irresistible? Even when we see them on your pages and blog, they literally call out our taste buds..what's the secret?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide : Oh, this is not farfetched. The secret simply lies in the depth of love, with which I handle, and convert every ingredient, into a wholesome meal.

I am a "process" person and I pay particular attention to every step that makes up the meal process. I cook from the heart...


E PLUS The Storyteller: Hmmm.. insightful indeed! Would you say that that, there are different preferences for meals owing to culture or are people, generally accommodating?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: For me, food is a global phenomenon, which serves as a unifying force that brings everyone together...

Nigerians however, are very big on their traditional dishes, and it is a source of pride we attach to our heritage. I'll conclude by saying, it swings both ways..

E PLUS The Storyteller: Great! So would it be correct to say, being a foodie and food blogger, has given you the platform to diversify?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide : Oh yes, It would! Actually, I'm not your regular "food blogger". My content represents mainly, a fusion of Food and law, which are what I'm about. A combination of my passion and my training, thus, I would say I have the best of both worlds, because no two fields allow for expression of diversity than,Food and Law.


E PLUS The Storyteller: Very apt! Very apt! Indeed..

And this leads us to your unique style of blending Law and Food! I guess no one ever saw that, coming?😄


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: 😃😃😃. Even I, didn't see that coming!!!

Truth is, I have always questioned my reason for studying Law...
I have always felt there was more that I could offer, that I wasn't sufficiently utilizing the law profession for...

I began to probe into how I could make this right, and @thatfooddielawyer was birthed!
I'm now grateful than ever, for the rare privilege of studying one of the most prestigious professions in the world... The opportunities that come with it are limitlessness!!!

 E PLUS The Storyteller: Amazing!

So, to the most exciting part💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼..can we have one of your recipes as you take us on the journey of Law and Food?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: I'd be glad to share my àsun recipe, with a twist..


Àsun is made with.  goat meat, diced and sautéed in a blend of pepper mix, spiced and seasoned to perfection! 👌

The step by step process are:

-Season your meat with onions, maggi, salt, garlic and ginger. (Tip: I blend some of the onion with  garlic and ginger into a paste, pour in the meat then, leave to marinate for sometime)
- Boil your meat till tender
-Rub some oil on it and roast in the oven at 300° for about 30 minutes or until slightly browned (Some people fry, I prefer to grill, broil or roast for added flavor)
-Blend your peppers to have a rough consistency and bring it to a boil till all the fluid dries out.
-Chop more onions and green peppers/spring onions
-Get your seasoning cubes, vegetable oil and suya spice (optional but again, I add this for extra flavor) ready as well.
-Place your pot on the stove till warm and pour in just enough oil to keep the meat from burning
-When oil is warm enough to sizzle, add onions and half of the green peppers and fry lightly
-For me, I like the the oil to absorb flavor of the goat meat together with that of the green pepper, so I pour in my diced meat at this point (some people pour in the pepper at this point, fry, and pour in meat afterwards..)
-Fry meat lightly with the other ingredients on medium heat and keep mixing (Do not leave for long so the green pepper doesn't lose its crunchiness)
-Pour in the pepper, maggi, and suya spice (I don't add salt again at this point, because the suya spice already contains salt)
-Mix together and keep tossing on medium-high heat for a couple of minutes
-Add in the other half of the green peppers and onions, if you prefer and toss for two more minutes

-Your asun is ready

E PLUS The Storyteller: Absolutely refreshing👏🏻👏🏻..It's all about Creativity. bring it on!!


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: Thank you. .


E PLUS The Storyteller: This recipe, definitely is a sure deal, can we make orders?🙂


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: Absolutely! 😅

I also run my food business at Ontario, Canada via @zeesplatter on IG, where we satisfy cravings for a taste of home, by providing sumptuous Nigerian meals, while elegantly propagating #naijafood to the world!

E PLUS The Storyteller: Awesome!!

And now, it looks like we will be getting more of your delicious and mouthwatering recipes on more platforms, which is definitely good news, because everyone will be carried along, across the globe. What should we expect?


 Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: Expect a helluva ride! (In a good way though, 😅).

@thatfooddielawyer is going to be packed with loads of fun, innovative, informative, and inspirational content, that cuts across everyone.

I had the privilege of volunteering for Siddiqah Foundation via @mystreetkitchen back in Nigeria, and the experience has left me with an unquantifiable amount of growth and learning.

So... More importantly, a lot of major collaborations with empowerment programs and food charity outreaches should be expected!

That's all I'm letting out of the bag for now.. 😊


E PLUS The Storyteller: Yes!! We are already salivating with the tip of the iceberg🙂 and I'm absolutely confident that it would be worthwhile...


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: It sure, would.


E PLUS The Storyteller: It's been such an amazing and inspiring moment with you, Azeezat Adejare Ifemide.. #@thatfooddielawyer

# zeesplatter
Any word for that individual, who aspires to turn his/her passion into something, creative?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: Simple! Never stop seeking, until you find the answers; repel negative energy and channel positivity into every "bad" experience until it becomes a 'learning" experience...


E PLUS The Storyteller: Hmm..and what a positive way to approach life.

How can you be reached?


Adejare Azeezat Ifemide: The fastest way to reach me is via email: 


thatfooddielawyer@gmail.com

I can also be reached via my Instagram handle: @thatfooddielawyer

ART AND STORYTELLING By Jacqueline Suowari On MEET THE GUEST..with E PLUS The Storyteller.
~15.1 mins read
 

 
Talk about poise, charisma, grace and charm with a blend of great intellect,
then you know one name easily comes to mind;
Jacqueline Suowari! This gorgeous Artist does wonders with her craft and you cannot help but wonder how she puts it all together.
Well, let's find out more from this interview with our Cover Woman of The Month.
 
E plus The Storyteller:
Hello...Jacqueline Suowari..How are you?
Thanks for being here Today..

 

Jaqueline: I'm fine, thank you for having me.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: How would you define Art?

 

Jaqueline: Art for me, is the process of self expression. It is a process that translates an idea through creativity into something tangible.

Something that makes an impact and provokes an emotional response.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Hmmm. So definitely, there is a link between Creativity and Art..

 

Jaqueline: Definitely,  there is no art without creativity.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Perfect.

As an artist, would you say Art found you or you found Art.?

 

Jaqueline : I believe art found me. I always say that art is like an application that came with my operating system. ( laughs)🙂

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Lol. Interesting..Jacqueline Suowari, your artistic prowess is quite evident in your works..Can you share the inspirations behind it?

Jaqueline: I am inspired by emotions and the unspoken language of the human body; I am inspired by its ability to communicate tonnes of information without the use of words and by the everyday experiences that shape our individuality.

I find the human mind and body quite fascinating.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: So tell us what's the story been like as an artist? Would you have it any other way?

 

Jaqueline: Life as an artist has been great really.  I think being a creative especially an artist helps you have a different take on life. Then, there are times that being an artist complicates simple issues; since your take on life is almost always different, there is the tendency to think that everyone thinks like you and vice versa.

I believe being an artist is and has been a blessing, I wouldn't have it any other way.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Awesome!

How would you describe your Artistic style?

 

Jaqueline : My style consists of large scale paintings on paper. In these paintings, I feature larger than life human figures or faces in monochrome drawings rendered with ballpoint pen and ink.

The colours on the painting are flat and opaque but this is not so for the drawings. In the drawings, I use a method of shading which I refer to as "layering" to create the contrast of light and shade.
I work within themes and these themes are represented in a body of work.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Awesome.. So one can simply say you explore your Creativity in diverse ways?

 

Jaqueline : I guess you can say that. 😁


E PLUS The Storyteller: Great..


What's the place of Art in the World Today?

 

Jaqueline : Art is different things to different people. In some cases, it serves as a vessel that portrays religious or historical thoughts and ideology, in other cases, it is an appreciation of beauty or a luxury item showing status. Different people relate and experience art at different levels of conciousness.

In today's world art is as explosive and potent as any lucrative business or investment. There are new records set at auction houses every year and museums and galleries have more and more visitors everyday. In today's world, art has become a way of life.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: 

Hmmm..interesting indeed..

So who is your greatest influence?

 

Jaqueline: I am influenced by several things. I love and follow works from several creatives in photography, poetry and music. In visual art, I love Jeff koons and Njideka Akunyilli’s work; Jeff Koons always has something playful about his work especially in his colour reprentation and I am forever loving the intricacy of design, use of different media and attention to detail in Njideka’s work.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Awesome..

Great influence I must say..

 

Jaqueline : Thank you

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: And Now, how does it feel to be recognised internationally?

Has that exposure translated for you?

 

Jaqueline: It feels good to know that my work is appreciated internationally.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Great..

I guess we can say that Jacqueline Suowari is a fulfilled artist..?

 

Jaqueline: Yes

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Are you thinking of impacting potential artist..?

 

Jaqueline : Yes, my work gives me fulfillment, but I can't say I am fulfilled because for me fulfillment is a continuous process. I don't think I'll ever stop wanting to achieve more ( laughs)

   I currently mentor a couple of aspiring artists in my studio and once in a while, I give talks at different institutions that focus on youth empowerment and talent nurturing around the country.

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: That's awesome..

 

Jaqueline:  Thank you

 

E PLUS The Storyteller: Indeed it has been a tremendous moment with you. Jacqueline Suowari..

  the team of E PLUS The Storyteller thank you for your time.

***********************************
It was almost midnight, exactly 11.30pm when Onome's dad arrived. By this time, Onome and her mum had fallen asleep. Onome's dad staggered towards the door and knocked for a while. By this time, the neighbors could hear the deafening banging at the door. They tossed and turned on their beds while trying to bear the noise.
_"Mama Onome, I say open this door before I break am!"_ He shouted.
Immediately, Onome's mother shut the door to avoid being seen by any one who might just be passing by. She moved her husband away from the door path and she tried lifting him up to his feet but he was very weighty.
_"Na which kind thing be this na? If I live you like this nau, them go say I wicked."_ Onome's mother said as she looked helpless. 
Onome overhead her mum in her sleep and that woke her up. She saw her mum murmuring.
_"Mama, na wetin happen again?"_ Onome asked.
_"Na your papa na! You know see as him don drink finish?"_ Onome's mum replied as she hissed. 
Then, Onome noticed that her dad was on the floor. She thought to herself when would all these end?
_"Abeg come make we try carry am."_ Onome's mother said.
"Mama make I go wake them Kevwe?" Onome suggested.
_"Oya, go wake them na, if dem answer you. You know say all of dem with your papa na the same thing!"_ Her mum replied.
Onome hurriedly went to the next room to wake up her eldest brother.
