PHOTO OF THE WEEK CONTEST 22 | SHARING MY BEST PHOTO OF THE WEEK.

Hey lovelies, Happy New Year to you all. How was your day? So today I got back from work, took my shower & laid back on my bed as memories from the past week flooded my mind, I smiled and jumped up from the bed screaming Steem for Ladies, you get the catch, right? exactly I wouldn’t want to end these thoughts, so I choose to share them with my beautiful ladies. I went ahead picked up my laptop and went straight to our Steem Ladies page to see if there was any new contest on Share Your Photo of the Week, I stumbled on the contest alert “Photo of the Week Contest 22” organized by @m-fdo 6 days ago, lucky me I wasn’t too late to participate.

Let us get down to Memory lane dating back to the 1st of January 2025 New Year's dinner with my bestie Erhun, her dad Mr. Nosa, and some family friends, it wasn’t about the fact that we went out on New Year's Day but the knowing feeling that daddy took us to B2B a private dining space at Victoria island my favorite desired spot, that wasn’t all the excitement that came with this private dining, daddy had something else cooked up for his two ladies on a dinner date.

OMG!! just take a look at those sumptuous foods, the images of that food can not leave my memory lane, as it is not just a photo in my phone but also in my mind. The dinner held at this particular location was for a purpose best known to my lovely host my friend's dad, just follow through and you will understand the play out. As we got into the building's beautiful aesthetics, we sat down with excitement, and we were welcomed by a Lebanese Manager who informed us that the buffet for the new year had just started and all meals were open to the guests to consume their satisfaction. Ah, my sisters, this one got us excited because in my country when they say buffet, they will still control how you portion the food, Lots of laughter please you didn't hear it from me, let us continue!

Daddy then bacon on us to eat all the different dishes in 3 plate servings and above or face the penalty of paying for the food, you know as big girls we chose the part of paying for the food because no way we were going to consume all those calories and disrupt all effort to get that snatching body. He said “Okay ladies” He waved at the Manager to give us the paycheck to sign, on seeing what was written on the paycheck for the meal, “What?? A whole Two hundred and eighty thousand Naira per head for the buffet” No wonder consumption had no control, at this point, all the big girl steeze was dashed, stood up to get three extra plates of each serving meal, fit fam was defeated, we ate as our life depended on it, of course it did, as our life savings were on the line, this is January we cannot loose guard.

When we were done eating we could not even swallow the last bit, we could not move, I felt like a log of wood, the discomfort was the order of the day, my friend said she felt like she swallowed a life Elephant. Our victory was daddy having to pay for the buffet and our account balance is safe.

Tell me in the comment session if you were in our situation what would you do, eat like a glutton to save your account, or pay 280k for the buffet per head? Before you answer remember it January ooh!!

At this point I am closing my laptop with an outburst of laughter and a heart full of gratitude to me ladies, I want to say thanks to all the ladies here for following through on my best photo of the week. Not wanting to stand alone in this contest, I would like to invite @eveetim @ukpono @lusciouslucy to participate in this contest if it is not too late...
