"Ungubani?!" #WakandaForever Image
"How do you think you got these? Think your ancestors paid a fair price?" #WakandaForever
"We will not have it O!!"
"I am Prince T'Challa, son of King T'Chaka!"
And then this scene. ♥️ #WakandaForever Image
"Stand up, you are a king" #BlackPanther #WakandaForever
"It is hard for a good man to be king"
Re-watching #BlackPanther and you realise simply by the visuals alone why it was Marvel's first movie to win Oscars. Even as a standalone movie away from the MCU it's visually beautiful to look at.
Shuri ♥️. If they don't make her the next Black Panther then at least a standalone movie ke #WakandaForever
Any other actors who want to play white South Africans in movies or stage need to give Andy Serkis a call. He got the accent 100% spot on, even the ad libs. 👌🏾 #WakandaForever
Down to the cheesy sense of humour and "ja boet" bravado 🤣👌🏾
Okoye is a whole mood. ♥️ African mom vibes. No time for nonsense #WakandaForever
Even Klaue (yeah, that's how his name was spelled) got the racist condescending white South African profile and the disrespect for black people spot on. 👌🏾#WakandaForever
This scene. This mask. This pain. 🙏🏾 #WakandaForever
"All over the planet our people suffer because they don't have the tools to fight back'" #WakandaForever
"There are about 2 Billion people on this world who look like us" #WakandaForever
Time for this scene. 🔥🔥🔥 #WakandaForever #BlackPanther
This guy. Bloody sell out. Nxa #BlackPanther
I think one thing I missed (and hopefully future movie will detail) is the every day lived experience of Wakandans and what culture is like without the influence of outside forces.
This scene. Love it. "Great Gorilla M'baku" #WakandaForever
M'baku deserves his own breakaway. The humour, the strength, the stubbornness, the West African attitude 👌🏾 #BlackPanther #WakandaForever
Dora Milaje. The fact that the world's most powerful nation in the MCU is protected by an army of women. 🔥🔥

Apparently the term "Dora Milaje" means 'most adored ones'. #WakandaForever #BlackPanther
Enter M'baku again. 🔥🔥🔥😂 #BlackPanther #WakandaForever
"Would you kill me, my love?" - W'kabi

Okoye....

#BlackPanther #WakandaForever
"Just bury me in the oceans, with my ancestors who jumped from the ships.
Coz they knew death was bettter than bondage" - Killmonger.

Name a deeper death and last words of a villain in a Marvel movie. I'll wait. #WakandaForever #BlackPanther
Apparently Black Panther 2 is (was) scheduled to come out in May 2022. Will probably be the most anticipated movie in years. #RIPChadwickBoseman #BlackPanther #WakandaForever

Day 3 of fighting Covid whilst living with a comorbidity. Thank you for all the support and kind words...and mountains and mountains of medical advice. 😣

I'm sticking with the meds given and recommended to me by my Dr and pharmacist. So far I'm doing well. ♥️🙏🏾
One of the drugs you're given as part of the cocktail of meds to combat this is called prednisone. It's a steroid. One side effect is that it increases your blood glucose so high you could go into a coma as a diabetic. So it's been a balancing act of insulin and eating right.
I test my blood oxygen regularly throughout the day with an oximeter, test my blood sugar about 5 times a day, spend as much time in the sun with my dogs and moving about in my garden when I can, I write and create content to keep my mind busy. Even making vids. I'll be ok. ♥️✊🏿

A thread on the most expensive spice in the world.

At between R14 000 to R140 000 per kg, Saffron is spice gold. #LesFoodFacts
What is saffron? The small "threads" that make up the spice are the stigma from the flower that grows from the Crocus Sativus plant. Each flower produces 3 stigmas. Those red threads in the middle of the flower #LesFoodFacts
To produce just 500g of saffron spice you need to pick the stigma from 75000 flowers...by hand.

It is time consuming and back-breaking work. #LesFoodFacts

Check out the Dirty Money episode ON Netflix that details Malaysian corruption under it's previous Prime Minister. He had his son being the front of most of the Billion dollar scams. Most of the money was taken from government agencies and departments 👀
He fired Ministers and did cabinet reshuffles when too many questions were asked. 👀👀
He still gave small rallies, had supporters who say it's all a conspiracy, others were telling him things were better under him and there was a corruption trial after he left office. 😂

He got sentenced to 12yrs last year.

Fascinating to see how old tech toaster ovens and convection ovens have been reimagined and changed to "airfryers" and given sleek designs.
Must be one of the greatest marketing transitions ever.

The tech hasn't changed, its decades old, its just how it's presented now.
My mom was big on the Weigh-Less programme in the 90's. She had to get all the gadgets recommended by it and one of them was a convection oven.
Remember these? They're the same tech as what people call "airfryers" these days. A convection oven. #LesFoodFacts
How does a normal, standard oven work? By heat radiation from elements in the top and bottom of the oven. In professional kitchens our ovens also have fans which circulate the heated air, this allows for a more even heat distribution. #LesFoodFacts

Let's talk about nuts. It's #LesFoodFacts time
Ok, let's start at the most obvious question. Why are nuts so bloody expensive? You need to understand what nuts are and how they grow and how they're processed.

The price is based on processing and also on market demand. Let me explain those 2 points first #LesFoodFacts
Let me start with the most expensive nut in the world. The Macadamia nut.

Origin? Queensland, Australia. Eaten by Aborigines for centuries and called "Kindal Kindal" until the colonisers landed and renamed them after one of themselves. Some dude called Macadam #LesFoodFacts

Had our Bosch training today. In summary, the Internet of Things is here to stay.

Smart kitchen, the new range of appliances can be controlled via your phone. Your fridge has a camera inside as well, whilst you're shopping you can check what's inside it and what you need to buy.
Can get your coffee machine to start making your morning coffee whilst you're still in bed.

Get your stove and oven to teach you new recipes and get it to cook them for you. 🔥
Oh, and the coffee machines can be programmed to remember every person's favourite coffee. So if you have a special date, just tell it to remember her/his style of coffee & it will make it the same every time. Got a group of friends over? You can save each person's style as well
