My Hive Introduction Post
"Welcome to my haven, where the sweetness of life is savored, and the beauty of the world is celebrated! I am Nongo Anthonia, fondly known as Dee to my friends and loved ones. I hail from Shangev Ya in Kwande Local Government Area, Benue State, proudly from the Tiv tribe - the renowned 'Food Basket of the Nation.'
Let me also thank @seyipaul2 for introducing me to this wonderful hive community.
As a true Benue daughter, I grew up and had my education in the state. My academic journey began at Unique Nursery and Primary School, followed by the prestigious Bristow Secondary School in Gboko. I then proceeded to Benue State University in Makurdi, where I earned a BSc in Library and Information Science.
Beyond academics, I have also pursued professional training in photography and baking, which have become passions that bring me joy and creative expression.
In this cozy corner of the internet, we will explore the delightful intersections of faith, food, art, and nature. I will share stories of how my love for God and His creation inspires my cooking, writing, and photography. You will find recipes that nourish both body and soul, book reviews that spark imagination, and photography tips that capture life's precious moments.
As a pastry chef, I've learned that baking is not just about following a recipe, but about sharing love, comfort, and joy with every bite. In the kitchen, I find solace in the precision of measurements, the thrill of experimentation, and the delight of presentation.
Beyond the kitchen, I am a bookworm who devours fiction, non-fiction, and everything in between. I will share book reviews, author spotlights, and reading challenges to inspire your next literary adventure.
Nature is my happy place, where I find peace, inspiration, and awe. Through photography, I capture the beauty of the world around us – from sunrises to sunsets, mountains to oceans, and everything in between.
In this blog, I invite you to join me on a journey of culinary exploration, spiritual growth, creative expression, and friendship. Let's explore the beauty of food, the joy of cooking, and the love that brings us all together. I will share my experiences, successes, and failures, and I hope you will do the same. I am so glad you're here, and I look forward to sharing my stories, recipes, and adventures with you!
As we embark on this journey together, I hope you will find inspiration, comfort, and joy in the words and images shared here. Let's celebrate the beauty of life, and make memories along the way!”
