Ghana, formerly called the Gold Coast, is one of the world's mine for gold, you know that? Cocoa has also been a major incoming generating product for Ghanaians. My late grandfather (maternal side) was a cocoa farmer. I remember eating cocoa with my cousins from our grandmother's farm as a kid... Fresh cocoa handpicked from the farm, busy mouths and licking fingers......ooooooh! Oh, I'm loosing track of my thoughts with memories of childhood farm adventures... sorry! :) And soon, the world will be clamouring for Ghanaian crude oil.
We are one blessed bunch of people. I do hope we know that and appropriately show our appreciation to the Giver of All things. Oh, I hope so.
I'm gonna introduce you to one of our local products and I'm recommending it hands downs! No arguments...Drum roll, please....!
BROWN GOLD
This is natural cocoa powder, no sugar, no malt, no milk added but processed to retain the natural ingredients. For a sweet tooth like me, I normally add a lil' milk to my beverage to neutralize its bitter taste. But I don't even add sugar. So I've shelved Nestle's Milo, Ovaltine and all other beverage products for Brown Gold.
Nutritionally it's good for your blood. For ladies who try this product, you're likely to tell the difference at that time of the month.
BTW: I know the PR person for HORDS, the company which produces Brown Gold. She's gonna have to pay me BIG time for free online publicity! Hellooo.... where art thou? I'm waiting.....! LOL!:
Well, I'm only recommending a good food product... I've not yet found a side effect except a good sleep when taken at night as real, hot cocoa, especially without sugar! Take it from a sweet tooth! :)
hot Brown Gold + cool weather = my utopia world,
Lady Akofa.
My good friend... the first commentor has prompted me to add this: The farm trips were vacation days trip, to the village okaaay? Not my regular lifestyle, which is why they were fun trips to the farm. Sort of like the reality series, Survivor, lol! Now I'm making it worse.... Bye, bye! :)

Wow, u really do deserve a cut from the sales, with all that free advertisement. But u know there is a saying in our ghanaian culture, akan to be precise "adi pa na Etow ne ho" literally... good products/produce sells itself.
But then there was something funny I noticed in ur article and i just could let it go... U know when u were ramblings on abt being a kid and eating cocoa from ur grandmother's farm and all that. This is the image it protrays. Some village raised "agya ba" growing up in a village. Please girlfriend... (lol) u and i know u were born and raised in the most privilaged places around the world. U better clarify that. Say something like when i used to visit my grandmother on vacations and.... u know that is what it was.
Just feel like pulling ur legs girlfriend. I just could not help it. But on the whole i love ur article.
