Hey…hey…..heyyyyy,

What’s shaking people?. No’in much here o, just chilling. Thankful and grateful for all I have.

So what gist do I have going on here? This is something that happened about 4 months ago.
I really don’t understand what’s going on these days honestly. Maybe I’m so old school and I don’t know what the trend is about asking a woman out. In short sha, this man boy’s mother and older sister toasted me abi it’s quarter to toasting ni, on behalf of this grown ass man child.

I’ve said this a million times that I’m always minding my business jeje when people bring ish to me. I was in an African store, buying my naija groceries when I noticed one yellow pawpaw boy eyeing me. I had to look over my shoulder a couple of times to be sure he wasn’t starring at someone behind me; sure enough he was starring right at me. Now I’m a very correct girl so I don’t knock an admirer’s glances, they can look all they want. My job is to smile politely and thank baba God that he made me easy on the eye….lol.

Anyhoos, as I maneuvered through the aisle in the store, this boy kept following me up and down smiling one kind smile. Ahn…ahn… at this point I was like abi diarrhea n worry eleyi ni?
So I get to the checkout counter and standing in a far corner was yellow pawpaw grinning from ear to ear. Standing right to my side though were two women (older like 60’s and mid 40’s) who were checking me out, whispering to each other and nodding and then repeating the process. At this point I was like okay I need to gerrourahere fast and go look in a mirror cos something ain’t right if 2 women are checking me out.

I finished paying for my items and proceeded to exit the store when the older of the women said ahhh please I want to talk to you, don’t go okay. So I smiled and said okay ma but continued to walk towards the door. She followed me outside o. By the time I turned around I saw the two women and yellow paw paw standing behind me. It was at that point that I realized they must all be together. He stood there smiling sheepishly; the following conversation ensued:

Younger woman: hello my dear, what’s your name?
Me: Sav
Older woman: you are beautiful o
Me: ahh thank you ma
Older woman: where are you from?
Me: I’m Yoruba (I could see they were Igbo)
Mama: Yoruba? Ehn ehn…. Issokay. Are you married?
Me: No
Mama: You get man?
Me: ahh….chuckling…… no answer
Mama: no need to answer sef because e no matter as long as you never marry. You are now ours. This is my son (points to son) Ebube, and he showed you to us in the store and said he likes you. And as my daughter and I were looking at you inside we liked what we saw.
Me: trying soooo hard not to laugh like a hyena at what I was hearing.
Younger woman: where do you work?
Me: so so….company
Younger woman: what do you do there?
Me: …..so…so…so
Younger woman: ohh okay…..so that means you went to school.
Me: nods in the affirmative
Mama: ahh that’s good, that’s good. We must marry you. In fact as I’m seeing you now I cannot let you go. My son must marry you. Will you marry him?
Me: still chucking like an idiot there
Mama: It’s true. He really likes you ehn…you are a fine girl. Oya what is your number so we can call you

Didinrin yellow pawpaw who has been quiet this whole time steps forward with his phone in his hand with that darn primary 5 grin on his face.
I call out my number to him and he immediately dials it saying “I want to test to make sure the number is real”.

They reiterate they will be calling me. Me, I save the number as: YELLOW PAWPAW, DO NOT PICK UP.

Within the next 24hrs Yellow calls me at least 10 times and leave a barrage of voicemails, none of which I listened to. Delete…Delete….Delete. More calls over the next few days, all ignored.

If your mum and sister have to come do the talking on your behalf, you best keep stepping to your diaper change cos ain’t nobody got time for lil boys. Let the real men step up please! Gaddem it!

Things we love .......totally! - MUSIC - Koker: Do Something

11:20 PM 2 Comments A+ a-

Our very first Things we love.....totally feature!

Okay, prior to August 8th 2015 I had never heard of the artist Koker at all, period, and then one day late at night my bro-in law, my sister and I were listening and gisting about naija music; me i was feeling like I was "in town" and knew all these artists and songs, and then the bro in law Bally Jay threw Koker in the mix. I turned to my sister and was like ahn ahn, how does your husband know about this correct song and artist and we are here just looking like mumu???.
On the realz though, this song is super dope!! If you like Naija pop,  Juju music and Owambe parties you'll absolutely love "Do Something" because it's a very correct blend of all 3. So like if i was going to an owambe party and wanted to set the mood on the drive there i would totally play this song on repeat.
Please please please I beg you, when you are going to an owambe or any party at all you have to set the mood BEFORE you arrive there. The mood starts with the jams in the car yo! otherwise you will be a dull fellow when you get there. You gots to enter the hall with a certain swag like ahhhhhhhh....... that's right, clear road, I've arrived!! loll
Singing.... pa ra ra ra pa ra ra ra...owo n'won fin do something ooo.....
And omg, this guy has Tims on agbada!! Lolll.... talk about swags. He kinda looking like good chocolate too..... lol.. oya let me stop behaving like an agbaya.... lol.
Enjoy the Video below..

Hey Lovies,

As some of you know - especially my Facebook family, I love to share great things I come in contact with. I'm very random about that, I share free book downloads, new music toh make sense, etc.... whatever catches my fancy needs to be shared! So I've decided to start a new feature on the blog titled "Things we love..........totally". I'll be posting things I personally love, from underwear, to  products, to books, to music, to even recipes, it don't marra.
If you want me to sample your products or promote your business for you, please get in touch @ttlsavannah@gmail.com.
I'm very excited about a talented lady all the way in Port Harcourt, Nigeria who contacted me via Social Media about her Fascinator Business. She has sent a couple of them to me to "sample". So In the next few days my Fascinator & Hartinator (biko don't ask me which one is Hartinator ooo cos na so i see am) should be arriving. Dem go hia wen for church on Sunday when I arrive with one on my head.....lol...

Ohhh and I also have some shoe give aways coming... SOON. Watch this space!

I'm very excited though.

So look out for our TWLT features periodically on this blog!
