• Awosu mu nkwaadɔm a efi awofo hɔ: Nneɛma pii te sɛ yɛn honam ani hwɛbea, yɛn tenten, yɛn mu duru, yɛn honam ani kɔla , ne yɛn ti nhwi kɔla gyina awosu mu nkwaadɔm a yenya fi yɛn awofo hɔ so.Ɛne sɛ, efi awosu mu nkwaadɔm mu.

Enti sɛ woyɛ teateaa a, ebia ɛyɛ w’abusua nkutoo.

Sɛ obi di me teateaa ho fɛw a, dɛn na meyɛ?

Oh, eyi yɛ yaw ankasa, ɛnte saa? Sɛ obi di wo nipadua nsɛso ho fɛw, wo teateaa, frɛ wo din te sɛ ‘stick’ anaa ‘Ila’ata Mollya’ a, ɛyɛ yaw ankasa. Ɛnyɛ adepa da, na ɛnyɛ papa sɛ obiara bɛyɛ saa. Sɛ wodi wo ho fɛw saa a, ebetumi ama ahotoso a wowɔ wɔ wo ho no so atew nso.

Sɛ eyi to wo a, mma wo nkutoo nhu amane . Sɛ wubetumi a, wo ne ɔpanyin bi a wowɔ ne mu ahotoso nka ho asɛm . Ebetumi ayɛ wo maame, wo papa, sukuu kyerɛkyerɛfo, anaa obi foforo a wowɔ ne mu ahotoso. Wobetumi aboa wo na ebia wɔabɔ mmofra a wɔredi wo ho fɛw no kɔkɔ mpo.

Afei nso, sɛ obi di aseresɛm a, susuw nea wobɛsan aka no ho. Mmɔ wɔn ahohora anaasɛ nkɔ ntɔkwaw mu bio . Saa a wobɛyɛ no betumi ama ɔhaw no asɛe kɛse.

Ade foforo nso ne sɛ, ebia mmofra a wodi wo ho fɛw no reyɛ saa esiane sɛ wɔn ani nnye wɔn ho nti. Ebia wɔrepere wɔ asɛm foforo ho, anaasɛ ebia wɔte nka sɛ wɔn mu duru ho ayɛ wɔn basaa ara kwa.

Dɛn bio na ɛsɛ sɛ mihu fa me mu duru a wɔtew ho?

Afei ma yɛnhwɛ nneɛma bi a ɛho hia kɛse a ɛsɛ sɛ yehu fa mu duru a wɔbɛtew so ho.

So eye sɛ wubedi biribiara na ama woayɛ kɛse?

Nnipa binom susuw sɛ, ‘Esiane sɛ meyɛ teateaa nti, mitumi di sɛnea mepɛ, titiriw nnuan a ɛyɛ dɛ, srade, ne nea ɛho nhia, na mɛyɛ kɛse ntɛm.’ Nanso ɛno nyɛ adwene pa ankasa .

Ɛma wonya calories a hwee nni mu nkutoo. Bere tenten mu no, ebetumi ama asiane a ɛwɔ hɔ sɛ wubenya akwahosan ho haw afoforo te sɛ asikreyare nso ayɛ kɛse.

Ɛtɔ mmere bi a, ebetumi ayɛ den ama abofra bi sɛ ɔbɛma ne mu duru ayɛ kɛse esiane akwahosan ho haw bi nti . Nhwɛsoɔ:

So akwan bi wɔ hɔ a wobɛfa so ama wo mu duru ayɛ kɛse wɔ apɔwmuden mu?
