Good evening my wonderful pupils on this community, hope you all are fine, today I'll be sharing with you guys how my day went.
MORNING |

Today been 3rd of May I decided to visit my mom at the village to assist her with house chores. So I woke early Preparing for journey to the village, Though I wasn't willing leaving so early to the village
As I finished preparing myself around 12pm, I went out to the highway and break vehicle that's going to my destination and luckily not quite long unlike the other days I managed to see a vehicle going to my village
And I was so happy,after about 30min to 45min I reached the bus stop then I took motorcycle to my village and it was so sharpen, i got home safe and decided to cook porridge yam for my parents my morning was awesome
AFTERNOON AND EVENING |

So as reached the house I was welcomed by my parents and siblings as usual. After that I rested for sometime and me and my brother @jozzie90 decided to make preparation for the next day so that we'll go cook palm fruit at the mill.
We transfered all the palm fruit from our house to the mill after that we fetch to filled in the palm fruit in the drum that the palm fruit will be cooked,
So we decided to come back the following day and cook the palm fruit cause it was already late and processing it that evening won't be fine,
So early in the morning 🌞 around 7am today me and my brother went to the mill to arrange and coon the palm fruit
Though the palm fruit was so plenty so it took about 5 hours for it to be done
So when I noticed that the palm fruit was done I went to the house to carry basin that we'll use in fetching the palm fruit from the drum and I also carry gallon and other stuff that was necessary.
So as I reached the mill I started fetching out the palm fruit into the basin and it was really hot though but I didn't feel cause I'm a little bit use to it even though it has been a while I've done it
So as I was done fetching out the palm fruit from the drum my brother went to call the mill man to come and start the engine and grind the palm fruit

After the palm fruit was finished grinded we had to carry it and put inside the squeezer to squeeze out the palm oil and it was successfully squeezed and we had 1and a half gallon for the time been.
We had to carry the grinded palm fruit to the selecting section so that the palm kernel will be selected from the chaff,
And after the kernel was separated from the chaff we had to squeeze the chaff again so that the oil will still come out.
Though when the kernel is always mixed with the chaff the palm oil don't use to have space to come out cause the kernel is always standing a blockage to the oil,.
Luckily after all the work through at the mill we had about 3 and a half rubber of palm and I was so happy cause my efforts wasn't in vain.
After we've done processing the palm oil we had to carry our stuff back to the house
Mostly the carry of the load was done by my junior brother wisdom and my senior brother.
While I was just at the mill arranging the stuff for them to come and carry
As we reached the house my mom was very happy cause if we weren't at the village she would have been the only one doing all those task, she was also shocked as we managed to get 3 and half gallon of oil from that palm fruit,
After all the stress from the mill, after I got home I went to the bathroom and took my bath so that I will go get some rest. And luckily my mom had already prepared a delicious meal for us to eat. Something delicious
vegetable
After finished eating I went through my phone ,and now I'm trying to write on my steemit account.
