    You're a great friend Laila. I'm glad to see others also do this. My mum taught me never to visit a new mum empty handed. I take food and also clean or do anything the new mum needs help with whilst I'm there. Everything looked yummy! 🤤

    Not me sitting here salivating at all that delicious food! 😍 That turkey is especially looking PENG haha Jollof on point. Cole slaw looking 10/10. You did good sis
    ps: I felt it in my soul when you said rice finished in the house. I'm the same way. As far as i'm concerned, rice grows in my pantry. I can't imagine it ever running out lmao
