This post is not sponsored; yesterday, I visited the NIMC office in Dubai to complete my NIN. And that was a very incredible experience. The entire process was so simple that I made the decision to share it with any Nigerians in the UAE who haven't done it yet to see if they can create a time to visit. What is NIN? This is a national identifying number(NIN) in Nigeria that only belongs to one person. Every Nigerian, whether at home or abroad,  it's necessary to possess it in order to either obtain or renew an international passport and all other means of identification. This has been going on for more than a decade, although its significance has not received much attention. However, just a few months ago, the Nigerian government mandated that all Nigerians must now have this national identity number (NIN) for easier data analysis. Centers for Nigerians overseas were announced by the National Identification Management Commission (NIMC). Enrolment centers are now present in natio

For newborns, broccoli is an extremely healthful vegetable. known to be calcium-rich, which promotes the growth of infants. On the other hand, because the egg yolk, in particular, contains up to 250 milligrams of choline, eggs are a very important nutrient that your kid needs. This promotes regular cell activity. Choline also aids in the correct functioning of the liver and assists in the transportation of nutrients to other parts of the body. It is impossible to overstate the significance of eggs for a baby. Beginning at 6 months of age, doctors always advise giving your infant an egg yolk. As important as the yolk has been described my little girl struggles to eat it so I decided to include this in the purée. Even if she doesn't know that, She still takes it without being prodded. Additionally, potatoes, which are well-known for being an excellent source of energy and having amazing nutrients like folate, zinc, Vitamin B6, and iron, are other crucial elements for a developing inf

Hello folks☺, We occasionally lose ties in life, whether they involve friends, family, or courtships. And while some losses are painful, some are unavoidable. I've lost both excellent and poor relationships throughout the years, and some of them even temporarily made me sad. Here are some strategies for maintaining a solid bond with the "ship" so it doesn't fall overboard! Be truthful. Honesty is a quality that most people lack, and it's been said that lying calls for many additional lies to be said in order to cover it up. Some individuals even use the term "fib" to sound more creative. A lie is a lie, regardless of how well-polished it is, the truth is, Most people find this repulsive, and it destroys trust. Simply state the facts. It is preferable to feel betrayed just once than to feel harmed repeatedly. Communicate effectively. I frequently advise overcommunicating rather than under communicating. Every relationship has to have good communication. A

                                          My amazing friend who is also a Blogger;  www.gracefulifestyle.com  and I had the chance to visit the gorgeous Dubai Marina Mall last week,  Though we've always wanted to hang out in places together, life, as you know, has other plans. Since we hadn't done that in a very long time, Al Mamzar Beach was the place where we last went exactly two years ago. Therefore, we made the decision to venture a little further on this particular day, arrived at Dubai Marina Mall. and what a sight to behold! The beachfront lifestyle is combined with the superstructure.   Its beauty is unparalleled in any mall in the world. Dubai,  is recognized for its wide, enormous, beautiful malls. captures Dubai Marina Mall extensively and makes it stands out from any other attraction since it is so thoughtfully created to captivate visitors who come in for either shopping or sightseeing. It is the perfect destination for both locals and tourists from across the wo

Hello Pals, My friends who know me well understand that I prefer black and gold braids over pure black braids (color 1). and for me, that functions as a default setting. But as time goes on, I've come to learn that doing the same thing over and again might get boring, so I now change it up! Normally, I just wing it with any combinations in my brain, and voila! They always turn out beautifully. With my pink and grey combination this summer, I took it far and I absolutely adore it! Are you afraid to experiment with risky hues like some of my friends? After reading this, I'm sure some of them would feel attacked😁😋; feel free to hit me in the comments section; I'm already anticipating it!😂😂 These are the few braids I was able to photograph (I am only regaining my photographic mode; after becoming a mom, I rarely liked taking pictures because I'm always too exhausted to strike a pose!). I'm hoping you like them. also keep in mind that life is too short to have boring

Hello lovelies, 💞 I'm skilled at making hair, among other things. I am the sort of person who, after getting my hair done by someone else, just has this conviction that, if I put my mind to it, I can do better—yes! One of those persons who are unhappy with what they received at the saloon.😎 I therefore primarily do my own hair, as well as always do my children. I made a snake cornrow for the "little madam" yesterday, and it was amazingly simple to do. So, I wanted to share some pictures of it with you all.  Are you a fan of cornrows? Have you ever worn snake-inspired cornrows? youngies and grownies😁😁 can both rock this hairdo either longer or shorter or even fuller! it all depends on what you actually desire. She wanted this length; she chooses her own hairstyles by the way and she adores this to the fullest. How do you feel about snake cornrow? What should I do—just launch a saloon?😋😋😋😋

Hey Fam💞 Last night, my husband and I spent the night socializing with some of our family friends and having a few conversations. One subject persisted for a while, and I would truly want to read your thoughts about it as I was sitting on the fence on this. Is it acceptable to let your child (children) dress like adults rather than as children? Since it's what most people glamour!  some people thought it was acceptable and that it wouldn't be a horrible idea as long as it was done well and it suit them. While some thought dressing a child like an adult all in the name of fashion was not so ideal. someone said she still had memories of her mother dressing her up like a boy with her brothers wearing and co.(I totally understood this because that was my case). Or when those all-ready-made dresses were the in-thing. apparently, every other child had those and if u didn't own one it was like u didn't belong.   She went on to inquire about our children's current favorite

Hey, cupcakes💞 Good morning and happy Monday!, I hope you enjoyed your weekend. Although it was extremely busy for me(Need I remind you, Premier League has started!☺)however, I didn't find it to be bad at all. I needed to tighten some loose bolts😁😋. MONDAYS!, Mostly, I typically wake up feeling really exhausted and hoping that I could stay in bed. Then I recall a quote by Oprah Winfrey that read, "You can have it all. Not all at once!" that inspires me to get going and finish the task! I'm saying this to you this morning to go out and be optimistic, do good deeds, be nice to your neighbors, and always try to say positive things to everyone around you because we attract what we are.  Have a lovely week ahead. 💪🙌

Hello folks💝, I sincerely hope you are enjoying your week, it's Thursday😏, hang in there, I see Friyay!🙋 A friend from about nine years ago called me last week. Even though we had a lot to catch up on, by the end of the call, I was feeling quite sad. We talked about a lot of things that had happened in our lives, even though I was glad we had reconnected after a long absence. She was this "I've got it all under control" kind of girl. I felt bad that I wasn't there to participate in her joy when it happened and to provide a sympathetic ear when she needed it. There was, in my opinion, a feeling of reciprocity. It is crucial we value p eople in our lives, especially if they are the genuine kind. The question is when last did you speak to that strong/well-organized buddy/sister or brother?  you see those strong ones? Omo, give it to them o, as they have "a lot"(in-house joke) going on. So why don't you check on them, even if it's only to ask the

Hello everyone💓, For those of you who are unfamiliar with this meal( biryani ), biryani is a mixed rice dish that was first created in Old Delhi (India). It is made with rice, Indian spices, and meat, such as beef, goat, fish, lamb, or chicken. some people add potatoes or eggs. The name of the biryani is determined by the sort of meat you choose to use; for example, if you choose to use goat meat, the dish is known as goat biryani, etc. Those who know me well understand that I don't enjoy tasting new foods or simply eating things I've never tried before. But when I first arrived in the UAE a few years ago, chicken biryani was a typical dish that my husband enjoyed as it was served in most restaurants. So, as I was experimenting with different meals during the lockdown, I decided to try making it. To my greatest surprise, it turned out to be so delicious that we all decided to add it to the extensive list of meals the family enjoys. Today I have decided to share my recipe since
