Creative Sunday | A Delicious Spaghetti Recipe Born Out of Necessity

Happy Sunday dear Hivers, I hope you all are having a good day, have you ever had that day when you had random and seemingly not enough ingredients to make a proper meal but you still ended up making a delicious meal at the end of the day, the day I made this meal was that day for me.

I woke up having plans to make stew and white rice but the power holding company had other plans for me, as I couldn't blend the tomatoes I had bought the previous day, it was my daughter's birthday and I had promised her and her cousins a delicious meal when they got back from school, feeling disappointed, I had to resort to plan B, thankfully I had these ingredients available at home that I could manage and it wouldn't tamper with my later plans for the stew when they eventually restore power.


I also realized that this is a meal for days we don't feel like spending much time in the kitchen but still get to eat a delicious meal of spaghetti, if you are a lover of spaghetti like me then you don't want to miss this recipe, as it is also very affordable.


**Ingredients used**

* Spaghetti

* 1 catcher tomato paste

* fresh tomatoes

* bell peppers

* onions

* groundnut oil

* seasoning cubes

* salt

* plantain

* carrots

**Process**


* I started by properly rinsing my plantain and vegetables under running water, then chopped them into my desired shapes


* putting some water to boil in the pot, I added salt and the pack of spaghetti(*I hope you don't break yours}

* making sure it is not too soft, I filtered the water out of the spaghetti after some minutes

* Continuing, I fried the sliced plantain to golden brown colour

* Using the same oil, I fried the tomato paste for a few minutes, before adding the chopped tomatoes, pepper, and carrots, I also added the seasoning cubes( the ingredient proportion is based on your discretion)

* Finally, I poured the stir-fried ingredients into the drained-out spaghetti, giving it a good stir so the ingredients properly mix, and that's it guys, my spaghetti was ready and it was indeed a beautiful day as we sang happy birthday for my 7-year-old daughter, making her blush, they all ate to their fill and even asked for more🤭.

Greeting dear lovers and creators of music in this wonderful community, I feel so happy to make it to the 28th week, yea, it's been a while since I made my entry due to some other life challenges and not just getting the right time and atmosphere to make my cover, thanks to my sister @jessicaossom who motivated me even through this trials to not relent and even offered me her space, making it easier go through with this week's entry, thanks sister, I love you.


For my entry today, I decided to cover a song by Labrinth feat. Emeli Sandé titled, Beneath You Beautiful because it's one Of the many music I find easy to sing along with, and also because a lot of us out there are scared of putting our bridges down due to so many hurts in the past or probably due to personal insecurities but the truth is that, there is someone out there who would treat you better, don't let the hurt of someone who doesn't deserve you make you close your heart away from love. No one is perfect, so put those bridges down and face life, and learn from your mistakes which shape you even to a better person.

Being a lover of good music, I tried my best to deliver, though it's not as great as I would have loved it to sound, especially the area when the key got higher, rather than give up, I'm putting this cover out, to encourage myself and still keep trying, it is better to try, learn, keep practicing, only then does the perfection we crave come, thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoy listening.

**Beneath Your Beautiful Lyrics**

You tell all the boys "No"

Makes you feel good, yeah

I know you're out of my league

But that won't scare me away, oh, no

You've carried on so long

You couldn't stop if you tried it

You've built your wall so high

That no one could climb it

But I'm gonna try

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful?

Would you let me see beneath your perfect?

Take it off now, girl, take it off now, girl

I wanna see inside

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight?

You let all the girls go

Makes you feel good, don't it?

Behind your Broadway show

I heard a boy say, "Please, don't hurt me"

You've carried on so long

You couldn't stop if you tried it

You've built your wall so high

That no one could climb it

But I'm gonna try

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful?

Would you let me see beneath your perfect?

Take it off now, boy, take it off now, boy

I wanna see inside

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight, oh, tonight?

See beneath, see beneath

I...

Tonight

I...

I'm gonna climb on top your ivory tower

I'll hold your hand and then we'll jump right out

We'll be falling, falling but that's OK

'Cause I'll be right here

I just wanna know

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful?

Would you let me see beneath your perfect?

Take it off now, girl, take it off now, girl (take it off now, boy, take it off now, boy)

'Cause I wanna see inside

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight, oh, oh, oh, tonight?

See beneath your beautiful, oh, tonight

We ain't perfect, we ain't perfect, no

Would you let me see beneath your beautiful tonight?

Happy Sunday Hive!

Hope you are all having a relaxing Sunday, for me this is the only rest day I've had throughout this week, to show that I've had a hectic week, so I'm glad to make it to today's edition of Creative Sunday in this wonderful Hive Learners Community.


For my entry today, I sang the cover of a favorite song of mine, titled "No One Knows Tomorrow" by Asa, this song has been my go-to in situations that seem above me, which proves how limited we are as humans, we can plan today and it becomes something else tomorrow, we can only do our best but the real decider of how tomorrow turns out depends on our creator.

The lyrics also speak to those holding grudges against someone or situations they might be in, or war in its context, why go to war when your victory isn't even sure, or why give up now when you can succeed tomorrow? Think about it, as humans, we must endeavor to do things that hopefully bring positive results rather than negative, since tomorrow isn't sure, at least let our present lead us to a positive tomorrow, as we can only hope for the best.

I hope you enjoy listening to my cover of "No one knows tomorrow, as its melody is also worth giving to.

*"No One Knows"*

*Just the other day, the other day

I was talking to the weather man

About today oh oh oh

And all, all he could say

Was no one knows tomorrow*

*See I can read the weather child

I can say maybe the rain will fall

The sun will shine oh oh ohh...

But that's as far as my guess goes*...

Hello Vibe community

I'm glad to make it to the 13th week of the Vibe Web3 Music competition, I sadly missed out on submitting an entry during week 12 due to circumstances beyond my control, so yes, I'm glad to be back this week with a song that has been an inspiration to me in my low moments, Originally sang by a Nigerian artist Preye Odede titled "Ebezina" it's Igbo language which is translated as don't cry further meaning don't give up.

Life is always filled with ups and downs, and the downs are what we don't like experiencing because it tends to take a toll on us trying to overcome a challenge especially when it Is beyond our control, so dear friends, I'm saying to you today to not cry, don't give in to lose and depression, rather hold your head up high, believing you have a creator than can never give up on you, if you are looking up to something and it seems like it isn't forthcoming, I'm sore there is a good reason for that, God might be preparing a bigger package for you yo receive at the right time.

You have life, you have hope, appreciate your little wins, only then would your heart always be filled with joy and have no space for tears, Joy is definitely coming and your wishes will be granted, hold on tight.

I hope you enjoy listening to my inspirational cover of Ebezina, till next week on Vibe, by God's Grace, stay awesome and true to yourself, don't give up.

**Ebezina lyrics**

*He's the same God

Who was there for you in the midnight hour.

He's the same God

Who is able to wipe your tears away.

He's the same God

Who was there in times of lack and want

He's the same God

He's Jehovah, my great provider*

*Tell me why you're giving up on God

Tell me why you're giving up on Him

Tell me why you're giving up on God

Hold on, change is on the way*

This week, I will be doing the cover of a song that was originally sung by Bob Marley, titled “Redemption Song” but I specially love the cover made by Rihanna, so I’ll be singing Rihanna’s kind of cover. There’s no how you listen to this music and not feel emotional about its lyrics, as you all know that in some part of Africa, my country included, we used to be carried away to foreign lands as slaves, thankfully it is not in existence at least in that aspect anymore,

https://twitter.com/techyyG/status/1790715806659060162

But most of us still allow our minds to be imprisoned by lots of emotions and feelings that make us feel depressed, one thing you should know is that the power to set yourself free lie in your hands, do not let any feeling or challenges weigh you down, like the lyrics say, Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, You can do it, rise above those challenges, do things that make you happy and be set free.

I hope you enjoy listening to my cover, thanks for your support. Stay Blessed!

**"Redemption Song" lyrics**

*Bob Marley & The Wailers Lyrics

Follow Bob Marley & The Waile…

on Bandsintown

"Redemption Song"*

*Old pirates, yes, they rob I

Sold I to the merchant ships

Minutes after they took I

From the bottomless pit

But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the Almighty

We forward in this generation

Triumphantly*

*Won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

'Cause all I ever have

Redemption soof

Redemption songs*

*Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery

None but ourselves can free our minds

Have no fear for atomic energy

'Cause none of them can stop the time

How long shall they kill our prophets

While we stand aside and look? Ooh!

Some say it's just a part of it

We've got to fulfill the book*

Happy Sunday and Mother's Day creative hivers

It's another creative Sunday edition and especially a Mother's Day, so for my entry today I won't be going solo, we had an eventful mothers Day celebration in the church today, which means the mothers took over the church's service, and allowed the men to take the back seat, it was an interesting event seeing the women lead all the church's program, from praise and worship to preaching, drama and even playing the musical instrument, yea a mama handled the piano, hopefully, next mother's day we would have a drummer. Lol

I also took part in the mother's choir presentation which I will be sharing the fun moment with us today, we started with a beautiful English worship song titled "My Beutifier" and gradually transited to other tribe's songs in Nigeria, which includes the Calabar,Edo, Igbo, Yoruba and even hausa. Expect a lot of waist shaking as we danced to the glory of God, trust our mothers not to disappoint in this aspect, haha

It was such a joyous moment in the house of God also it felt great having a day set specially to be celebrated all over the world, mothers are heroes, here is me wishing all amazing mothers all over the world, and o Hive a Happy Mother's Day, you all are great.

May we all live to reap the fruit of our labour and may our children grow to greatness, also may our strength never fail us in this wonderful journey of motherhood

I hope you all enjoy watching the video clips, it promises to be fun. I would also love to know how you spent the Mother's Day, for the guys, did you wish someone a happy Mother's Day today? If not, it's not too late, do wish a special mum, sister, aunt, etc, and make her feel loved.

Thank you for reading.❤

Hi everyone!

Welcome to another exciting Musical week of the Vibes Web 3 music competition and this is week 10.

A big congratulations to last week's winners and much more appreciation to Lordbutterfly and his team working together to support and celebrate musicians all over the world through the Hive blockchain, Kudos team.


This week I'll be doing a song titled "Your Love Is My Love" by the legendary soul singer, Whitney Houston, I wasn't born yet in the 80's when she was alive and the music diva of that time, at least, I still get to grow up listening to her song in the 90's till date. My dad is a good music lover, and he made sure I listened to those soul lifting oldies with his stereo right from my baby stage, people often wonder if I'm older than my age or probably an old soul because of my love for old classics, it's just something I grew up listening and it became part of me, till date, I still have a selection of old classics on my playlist, and they are kind of therapeutic for me, both in happy and sad moments, listening to these classics helps liven my mood so I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.

Good music is like medicine to the soul, it never gets old. I am a mother now, and guess what? My daughters know the lyrics to some of those old classics as well, more like I'm passing good music to my generation, and I feel good about it.

Your love is my love, is that music that reassures either a family, friend, or spouse that your love for them is unshaken, no matter the challenges you have to face, the line I love best is *"If tomorrow is judgment day, and I'm standing on the front line, and the Lord asked what I did with my life, I would say I spent with you"* give a deep thought to this line, it actually begins the song, taking us to several other amazing in-depth lyrics, don't just listen, feel the music, and I'm sure you will feel the magic, that is what good music does.

**"My Love Is Your Love"**

*If tomorrow is Judgement Day (Sing mommy)

And I'm standing on the front line

And the Lord ask me what I did with my life

I will say I spent it with you

Clap your hands, y'all

It's alright (It's alright)

Clap your hands, y'all

It's alright*

*If I wake up in World War 3 (World War 3)

I see destruction and poverty

And I feel like I wanna go home

It's okay if you're comin' with me

Clap your hands, y'all

It's alright (It's alright)

Clap your hands, y'all

It's alright*

*'Cause your love is my love

And my love is your love

It would take an eternity to break us

And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us*

# Thanks for your view ansmd support.❤❤

Happy Sunday Hivers!

It's another exciting edition of the Hive Learners Creative Sunday, I hope you all are having a fun weekend, as for me, I had a fun time in church today, and one of the songs that was sung inspired me to do this cover as my today's entry.


it's a song by Preye titled Ebezina an Igno language, which can be translated as "Don't cry" Sometimes in life, we get faced with different challenges that make us feel depressed and lose hope for a better future, in my country, for instance, the economy situation keeps getting worst daily, inflation has enveloped all cost of living, not that things were better before the current government while hoping for a positive change, the current government brought more woes, the last thing as a square meal is not affordable anymore, and those of us that are thankful we have cryptocurrency to sustain us through these hard time, the government is still not relenting in bringing on more woes by passing difficult policies to make life miserable for the youths, imagine freezing innocent people's bank account just for your greed and selfishness because you are in power.

Amidst all, don't lose hope, don't cry, and let's keep our hope up, change will definitely come by God's grace no matter how impossible it looks now, as long as you have life, there is hope

. I hope you enjoy my cover of Ebezina, thanks for watching and for your support, wishing you all a fulfilling week ahead.

**Ebezina Lyrics**

*It's the same God, who was there for you in the midnight hour

It's the same God Who is able to wide your tears away

It's the same God Who was there inside of lack and want

It's the same God Is Jehovah My great provider*

*Tell me why you're giving up on God

Tell me why you're giving up on Him

Tell me why you're giving up on God

Hold on, change is on the way*

*Ebezina, Chukwu non nso (Don't cry, God is close)

O gini bu nsogbu gi?* (What is your problem?)

Ima-na odi adigideh (He does not take long)

Nwa nnen mo, Jide si eh Ike (Beloved, hold on to Him)

Hi si anya gi eh (able to wide* your tears away)

Chukwu adighi* atu asi(God never lies)

Oge* a diri gi nma (It's going to be alright*

Hello music lovers

I'm happy to make it to the week 9 edition of Vibes Music Competition, congratulations to last week's winners, and more congratulations to everyone who made an entry making us vibe to music from all over the world, you are all awesome, kudos to everyone spreading the news about Vibe and Hive, onboarding new users to the platform, that's the beauty of it all, a warm welcome to all new rivers also huge thanks to the founder and team supporting Vibe community, thanks to you all.


This week I decided to do a cover of a song by RnB world class talented singer Rihanna titled "Take a Bow" because she is one singer I find easy to blend into her style and tempo of music, although the lyrics are focused on a cheating partner, I derive further meaning knowing that she is a strong woman who knows her self worth and won't allow herself break down due to his bad attributes but would rather hold her head up high and move on with her life, in hopes of better things ahead, refusing to stick around in situations where you're not being valued, respected or treated with dignity whether romantic partnerships, friendships or any other aspect of life. Sometimes we have to make the empowered choice to walk away, take the high road, and trust that better opportunities lie ahead for those who prioritize themselves.

I hope you enjoy listening to my cover of Take a bow, Let's keep celebrating music's ability to explore emotional depth while inspiring us to live more confidently
