Jamaican Sunday Lunch
Filed Under meat | Posted on June 8, 2008

Growing up, one of the things that I gradually began to realize set me aside from my friends and classmates was the fact that in my house Sunday lunch was never a ‘Trini’ affair.
Roasted Chicken, Rice and Peas, Boiled Plaintain (shown above) replaced my neighbours’ fare of Stewed Chicken, Callaloo and Macaroni Pie. Although I eventually became familiar with Trini Sunday lunches in their many varying (yet oddly similar) varieties the above will always be my sentimental fave
mmm perfection
Slowly but surely I am trying to get my mom to share my recipes with those on here who have clamored to learn more… as soon as I do I will let the posts begin!
Lucozade
Filed Under beverages | Posted on June 7, 2008

Going through the photos I’ve taken over the past year, including my period without internet activity I came across this photo of a Lucozade bottle. A local drugstore was giving them away for Father’s Day 2007. Yes, random I know
My first instinct was to check the expiry date… to my surprise it was still good!
To those who don’t know, Lucozade is the British ‘equivalent’ to Gatorade. And although I now prefer Gatorade, Lucozade will always have a sentimental place in my heart as I grew up on it. I can’t say I’m a fan of Lucozade’s new bottle and design, but maybe this is what the ‘kiddies’ today find appealing?
Growing up Lucozade was symbolized by the hella-fine British decathelete Daley Thompson (only one of the greatest athletes/medalists ever), who appeared in a series of ads for the beverage.
Recently, I found one of the ads on YouTube… I know this will bring back the memories for many a Trini
