“ሰርገኛ መጣ በርበሬ ቀንጥሱ”

- Ethiopian proverb

The proverb, roughly translating to "The bridegroom has arrived, prepare the berbere," cleverly mocks those who fail to plan because it highlights the fact that preparing berbere is a time-consuming process and cannot be done on the spot. It serves as a witty reminder that certain things, like berbere spice, require careful planning and cannot be rushed.
