I am Surprise, a storyteller, singer and creative spirit exploring the intersections of art, beauty and truth. My journey flows through many forms; music, writing, creative modeling and sharing lived experiences with others who walk this path of growth and self-discovery. Kwa mtandao, including here on this blog, I open windows into my world: the rhythm of my thoughts, the lessons of my journey, and the quiet strength found in both vulnerability and resilience. I believe that every image, every rhyme, every lyric and every reflection carries the power to heal, to connect and to remind us of our shared humanity. My work is deeply rooted in African philosophy, personal transformation and creative expression . Whether through my writings, reflective posts, music or performance, I aim to create a space where art feels alive, where it isn’t just seen or heard, but felt . This blog is an extension of that vision; a place where words stretch beyond, where stories unfold, and where cre...
It's usually chapo beans kama ni kununua ama kamani kujipikia we are, most times going for ugali mayai (campus chronicles). Ugali mayai na skuma ama spinach. Lakini mimi kama mluhya I went with kienyeji. This is a mixture of sagaa and nderema, something I have never tried before but uweeeeh, it's so good. I am not the biggest fan of eggs, other than gradually outgrowing my allergy towards it. Thus, I am always trying to spice up my eggs. How convenient that eggs are so versatile 💃🏾. In this recipe I did some kind of sunny side up eggs but with tomatoes and all. However, I do not fancy runny eggs so my yokes are cooked through. I'm not sure if there's an actual name for cooking eggs this way, if you know please comment below. You can get eggs from any retail shop ama pia kwa soko. Mboga za kienyeji ziko kwa soko. In the city you mostly find them wakati zishadondolewa ( I have really tried to find an English word for it but my head just refuses to think😂). I think in ...
I am sure that most of us have been stuffed with matoke while growing up; ama waru au malenge saa zingine zote zapikwa pamoja. Matoke is such a common children's meal to the extent that you find so many people 'outgrowing' it. As for me, I have loved matoke my entire life and seeing that there are so many ways of preparing the dish is just it for me. I have been able to eat those that are washed and boiled with the peels on, then you get to peel, unaweka chumvi and eat it. Maybe with tea au kitoweo chochote kama nyama ama kuku, whatever you prefer. Then there's the mashed bananas which is also so interesting. But today, I wanted to go with stewed matoke accompanied with some french beans. Campus students are always looking for the easiest recipes cos we all know how hard it is to cook while you are living by yourself and trying your best to maintain your adult life; adulting is a scam. So the moment nilienda kwa sister yangu na nikaona kuna matoke I wouldn't pass...
