turning my life around towards something meaningful | delicious meal

A whimsical day in a life of a couple that owns and maintains a homestead in a rural west African cattle farming ranch as furry and feathery friends roam about. The Mr. reconditions compacted soil whilst the Mrs. prepares a delicious Chinese dish called walnut shrimp. The viewer is captivated by the enigmatic presence of a baby monkey named Monki du.

    I followed your journey five years ago to Mother Continent. I knew Africa would open her heart to you. Because you are real and very authentic. I remember when an old Ghanian Woman gave you a name. Your skin is glowing, and you change your life, and it impacts the man you met. I see more door of blessing in your life.

    That cactus is called tuna in Jamaica. We used it for several things but I like to use it to wash my hair. Some people soak it in water overnight and drink it by itself or blend it with egg. I have been watching this channel frequently from inception and I am so impressed with the results of the place. It looks like a tranquil oasis. @diyhouse&farm you created your piece of CA in Ghana.

And speaking of mangos, have you heard of amba sauce? It’s like a mango chutney but pickled that has origins in the Middle East that consists of lemon juice, garlic, spices and of course, mangoes that is really delicious. I made it myself for the first time and it’s a miracle turned out well but I’m sure if you make it, it’ll be wonderful. 😃

It is beautiful & serene! I have a couple of questions I hope you don’t mind answering …did you plant any banana or plantain trees? Cassava? I remember you had a vegetable garden, how is that coming along? Does Monki Du….sleep outside? Do you ever pet him? Will you ever get him a companion? I was Just curious.
