I remember last year, December, on the eve of Jamho holiday, which is a national holiday that is celebrated in Kenya on December 12th. It’s a day that came home early when Kenya became a magnificent country. Well, this was my sister’s wedding. I had Lide, I was looking forward to this day and finally the day came and the weather was warm, which made the celebration even more enjoyable. Well, the meal that I took on that day was a mixture of different cuisines, Indian cuisines and also some traditional food that was prepared by top chefs. Especially what I enjoyed most was the Nigerian jello flies. It was mouthwatering and I could taste the every bit of the herbs used, which made it exceptional. Also the traditional meal, which included the grilled meat, was well prepared and a bit spicy and what made me even more enjoyable was that my family was allowed, my whole Ektred family was there and so we would chat about things in the past. And especially I remember my cousin telling me a story about when we went riding and I fell, but I never sustained any major injuries, but I had to try to my parents that something knocked me so that they would not ground me and forbid me from cycling. Well, overall I enjoyed the celebration and it ended well.
