Kedike chicken wasn't far off now 🤣😭

[@chiomadim8289]

U look Amazing

[@monobunart]

Dimma where are your pajamas from?? So pretty!

[@SqweakyMcsqweak]

Hiya, for the shirt get a good tailor to sew a patch on the spot or you could ask for them to embroider something there.

[@julietambali]

@@SqweakyMcsqweak Brilliant 👏♥️

[@jessintaoseni1354]

Hilarious 😆😂

[@pathwayuk]

Dimma is such a book reader, I stan.

[@ntshabengra3370]

The Bridgertons are a family of 8 children. Each book was written about each of the kids finding love. I agree with Dimma, we're not going to miss anyone.

[@cyrilchetachi]

Hey Dimma, just half way into the video, I stopped at the shirt part to say If you really love that top, you could just do a DIY stuff to it, a brooch won't be a bad idea, or Stitch something beautiful to that affected area instead of discarding it, I love it too and I think it's beautiful, it looks perfect on you....Oya back to watching the rest of the vlog...love you.

[@DimmaUmeh]

Thank you! I'll just take it to my tailor ❤️

[@cyrilchetachi]

@@DimmaUmeh That would be great, pls I hope you don't mind showing us what she will make out of it......I really enjoyed the rest of the vlog, Thank you Dimma for these amazing content, loads of love...

[@benedictaetanabene6515]

Daughters who walk this path is one of the most amazing books ever , the characters the sisterhood , it’s a beautiful book

[@pelumiadelaja]

Dimma’s videos just make me realize that life is actually good

[@Keesha]

I’m Jamaican and I read Homegoing… life changing. Made all my friends read it.

[@omonyeifidon1157]

Thank you Dimma! Is it not the same Shonda writing Greys Anatomy, Scandal and How to get away with Murder 🤣🤣🤣 She will deliver for us!

[@Afy_playtime]

You can try using an applique to cover the tear on your shirt. That way you can still get some wear out of it.

[@Dinmaogueme]

"if anybody looks at me, I look at them in their eyeballs" dimma ehhhh😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@dolphineakoth]

Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi is so good, every African has to read, this I agree Dimma.

[@UK-sm4co]

What a beautiful looking bookshop. wawu! In Lagos there? The only book shop I know is the one at CMS with the statue in front and of course the Christian bookshop in VI at Oko Awo, Laterna Ventures. Dear Lord, see this fine boys book, I've been looking out for? Chai What a lovely vlog. I wish I could read books again as i once read as a kid. Where did all that book reading love go?

[@malteedanjuma862]

'My sister the serial killer' is a lovely book

[@hillarygodwill2110]

My Sister the serial killer is such a good and easy read. I loved the themes of the book and to be honest the discussion on PTSD that led to the deaths was so interesting to me. No-one talks about serial killing in Africa especially West Africa

[@eseogheneoghenetega7932]

I clicked so fast!! :)...I'm illustrating a children's book while watching this and with this weather everything is perfect.

[@ekeminimark]

Lovely, I had a knack for illustration sometime back. Still love it till date.

[@abby2com10]

Please let us know when the book drops. Wanna include African authors in my kids library

[@TemsD]

Oh wow that's amazing. All the very best in that. Sounds so cool:)

[@anajadorcas5113]

'Everything good will come' by Sefi Atta is so good!! Loved, loved it. It's a must read and have.

[@diannaachando9160]

Dimma you keep motivating me to read, thank you SO much. Also Indian food is bae🥰. It was lovely seeing you, FK and Joka hanging out. Hope to hear/see you on their podcast soon(again) 😁 Have an amazing week

[@Tideleola]

I read 5 Bridgerton Books this past month and I enjoyed every bit of it. I believe that people 'll fall in love with the other characters,Trust Rhymes☺️

[@oreoluwaeunice]

Daughters Who Walked This Path is such a good book. Glad you picked it🥰 Your videos are so calming, Dimma. Thanks!

[@BusiofHF]

Finally!!!! Thank you, i feel like because I've read the bridgeton books I'm not hurt Simon wouldn't be appearing in season 2 of bridgeton

[@kenechi698]

When you said “ if any body looks at me , I look them back in the eyeballs “ 😂 I was like PERIODT😂

[@nrinka]

Dimma has inspired me to go pick up a fiction book. I have been reading a lot of biographies and it can get a bit tasking reading biographies.

[@JennyOyubu]

I now have a book wishlist so thank you for that. Kedike chicken was farthest 😄😄😄😄

[@abisodun]

Daughters who walk this path is a very very good read, so educative i love it.

[@oluwadamilolasanni]

Daughters who walk this path is such a goood read. 🙌

[@minascorner4364]

Whew! Been waiting for this🤣🥰. Somehow Dimma just grows on you

[@Louisihuefo]

19:44 looks yummy

[@francaomo]

I love the cooking/baking portions of every video!

[@cutesnubable]

Same. Soothing

[@camie2280]

Your videos has always been recommended to me, but always ignored, due to boredom I clicked on your channel and maaaaannn I'm hooked, new subbie😻

[@alvinandex1941]

I just finished reading books by Buchi Emecheta i think she is one of your own ...Joys of motherhood and Slave girl

[@funmiakinde8167]

Girl! Everything good will come is literally my best African novel. Sefi Atta writes soooo well and has so many good books. Love her. Definitelyputting this bead collector on my list

[@goddess-overonyx7547]

Do you know where I can get her books, I'm in new york and I tried amazon I can't find any of her books am I spelling her name correctly or does she have a website, pls help ☺

[@idarae.7025]

@@goddess-overonyx7547 her book is definitely on Amazon, you can type sefi atta or the bead collector, it should come up!

[@tondraallen2423]

You are too funny 😂 - look them in the eyeballs took me out lol

[@beautyonyekachi-b2o]

Your videos are so inspiring and educating. they have blessed me so much and am forever glued to your channel. I Love u so much💖♥️

[@hanbisnaturals]

Satisfying vlog as always 👍

[@MegaVirtuous1]

I'm gonna have to give African literature a go. That "Love In Color" looks interesting. Thanks for sharing!❤

[@ameenat7969]

I love your vlogs dimma... for some reason they are very theurepatic to me.. ❤️ so much.

[@jenniferoge]

If anyone look at me I will look at them eyeball to eyeball 😂🤣 lol, you can design the cloth still cuz there’s no much damage, give it to your tailor to attach art design to it

[@oluebubeokpaluba9130]

Awww, you're using 'i can't believe its not butter' 😍

[@oyindamolaadamson]

Daughters who walk this path is a very lovely book, I'm glad you picked it. 😍😍

[@KM-yq6bf]

The two books you picked are on my African women who blew the stories up 😭😭💯💯💯💯💯💯 If I'm to rate them....Daughters who walk this path will actually do what you said The Vanishing half did....that story still stays with me 💔

[@ifyudeozo1827]

"Everything good will come"by sefi atta exact copy as yours was the first gift my now late husband gave me he loved books alot had so many nice books especially by African authors I am making mental note to read as much as I could oh how I miss him so much

[@bolaa3915]

Sending you virtual hugs 🤗 🤗

[@deeron1554]

Yes my fellow book worm, I have mine in Kindle version cos I can move on to the next one. I have My Sister the serial killer but haven't read it yet, and I do need to start reading more African authored books!! The restaurant omitted one thing, nan bread. Indian food is not complete without it. Oh, it's pronounced Row-Gan Josh, it's yummy. PS. you can sew a fancy button or a ribbon bow over the tear on your shirt. It will just look like a design you created, trust me I did it with one of my jumpers.

[@harderhonche]

When I saw you grab Daughters Who Walked This Path by Yejide Kilanko, I screamed in excitement! That’s one of my all time favorite books, and then you killed it by adding My Sister The Serial Killer by Oyinkan to it, I said “just finish me”. I have both books, read and enjoyed them. Now I have to get Love In Color just because🤷🏾‍♀️

[@Obarhoabel]

😂😂Dimma you can put a brooch on that spot and still rock the shirt no need to look into any ones eyeball🤣

[@PleasantlyIntroverted]

Loved this video! Wear a brooch or pin in the top do not get rid of it. you can also buy the same colored thread and stitch it nicely.

[@noksify]

Dimma is that aspirational African girl!

[@sandraada8606]

Dimma maybe add a brooch to the shirt 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@Usikholor]

The Vanishing Half is such a great book. Didn’t start off so well but that was a storyyyyy.

[@fifilamani8778]

Just found your channel and I'm obsessed! Love from SA ❤

[@jessicaajuonuma7211]

I love when you talk about books. 😇😇😇 You introduced me to the world of Nnedi Okoroafor. And now, I'm going to look for home going and the vanishing half.

[@samanthamahmoodtv]

Aww Dimma, this video was so relaxing too watch, more of it abeg. The stress in Lagos is too much lol

[@zika_fierce]

Home going was such a beautiful group. Everyone has to read it

[@lincavanessa9954]

It’s the i look at them in their eye ball for me! Dimma you are a rare gem! Love from 🇷🇼

[@JoyDee3347]

Am learning how to be classy from Dimma.

[@Likepearlo]

Babes that shirt isn't bad at all...it reminds me of kanye's clothing line.. please rock it well and be happy..

[@ONYINYE100]

LOL, if you still want to rock the blouse......you can use a brooch over the hole.

[@KatherineUseh]

We definitely heard you, couldn't hear the noise you talked about. That Banana bread looks so good Dimma

[@Chow_box]

You can get something embroidered on the shirt

[@meandxui.6239]

My sister the serial killer was a quick interesting read; I need to check out the other titles you got as well.

[@holly_kalonji]

I really enjoyed watching this video. And I'm most def looking into reading African Literature, sounds like something I'd love. Nevermind your amazing song choices. I was a little disappointed at the fact that they weren't listed in the description box since I'd love to download them. All in all, great content! :)❤

[@favourngozi3167]

After watching this video I had to look for a soft copy of Daughters who walk this path, it was sooooo nice I just could not stop reading. It was a really nice book I'm definitely getting a hard copy

[@elohoregbordi]

OMG Sefi Atta is the best! 🥰🥰🥰 Please read Everything Good Will Come. All her books are great. Have you read News From Home? I bought The Bead Collector last year and it was an amazing read.

[@sandraonariiopusunju5138]

I was wandering about the cake! The part where you guys were pronouncing the food names was so funny.

[@ntokozomemela985]

Okay wow. Loved loved this vlog. Book shopping 😍 i will also have to start a collection on African Literature.

[@_immaculata]

The quality of this video man❤️❤️❤️ your skin looks so beautiful. I don't even know what it is for me. The books, the food, the invite package, the skin, the palazzo, the bed, the qualityyyy😭 top notch

[@kirstieadjei1675]

So happy that I clicked on the video. 5 mins in, I decided to subscribe. Now I’m 9 mins in, I’m literally cackling out loud (about the shirt). Great content, great personality.

[@tjitjilamokono7757]

Dimma is the neatest cook.

[@preciousco]

“You’ll continue watching it!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I died.

[@amikahs]

As a West Indian, Homegoing, was a beautiful bittersweet experience sigh. I need to read the Vanishing Half 🥺

[@ZainabAbdullahi23]

Gave a thumbs up before I even start watching, the way I screamed when the notification pops up .

[@lizet3more]

Oh no don't retire it Get an Applique/brooch to sew on top of it Love from Aberdeen Scotland

[@edithibibama2553]

Make an embroidery on that part of the shirt... It will turn out beautiful

[@ewurabenaghartey2892]

Dim Dim aww can't wait for your arrival in Ghana we love you so much 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@Gathonination]

Bookstores, what happy places!

[@BubuEsho]

I remember when I finished reading Americannah. As soon as I read the last page, it hit me that I now have to face reality. I was so involved in the book that it was weird not even having the book to read anymore. I understand what you meant when talking about finishing the vanishing half. I will love to read it. I got so lazy and didn’t finish home going 😢😢🙈

[@ngozidibia7278]

👍🏽 Thanks for taking us with you during your day.

[@tumi_bw]

That's it, I'm making chocolate cake for my birthday... 🤤🤤😍😍 I loved this vlog! 🙌🏾 You made me want to go out and buy more books. 🙌🏾❤️❤️

[@Chidinma-zu9dc]

Have you ever wondered why Dimma is so wise and knows a thing or two about most things? That's because she read books. She feeds her mind and that's what intelligent people do.

[@moneyisweird7862]

My sister the serial killer is soooo good!!!

[@lamiukor8988]

Lol, your excitement at the robe was contagious. I was smiling that it was a robe.

[@fadareomolayo1707]

U can style d shirt with a brooch..big size brooch

[@chiagoziememerole8270]

For the shirt, may I suggest doing an embroidery design over the hole? ❤️

[@beatrixaa7]

I just finished The Vanishing half too, I loved it

[@BabiousB]

Two slices Dimma?! Girl bye! 😋

[@deezame]

Food looks good

[@lilianezinne8213]

Downloaded the vanishing half already

[@TraceyT161]

I was looking for a new book to read since I just finished Americanah. Thank you for the suggestions.

[@BlessedLife89]

Homegoing was beautiful, I will have to read the one you were talking about too.

[@Tuoyoede]

Dimma and her book recommendations 💯💯

[@Ogoo_Osuala]

Colourful love looks like a really interesting book to read.

[@michelles.8909]

The vanishing half is AMAZING!!!!

[@AyomideSobowale]

Dimma please share the recipe, they look so good

[@AmandaOsuji]

I love 'is it not Shonda Rhimes' because I know anything Shonda writes is fabulous. Funny enough i don't watch Grey's anatomy and haven't started watching Bridgerton..

[@emmanonye]

Love itttt. Also seeing Jola and fk made me really happy

[@peaceful_dolapo]

The packages are so cute and well thought out You’re so beautiful 😍, Enjoyed this video! ❤️❤️❤️

[@vio4025]

[@avbroooo]

Nice cake. You dear, can bake !!!
