Category Archives: ChennetteIt’s been a long time, but someone out there has finally, finally found my blog searching for “gavin gunhold”! Welcome oh MacDonald Hall fan, or fan of fictional made-up Canadian poets or general Korman aficionado, from Wisconsin.
I think that warrants a gratuitous posting of a poem other than the one that used to be on [...]
Mom and I made grocery* a couple weeks ago in Trinidad, before I went on a brief vacation to the US (California! the Pacific, whales and redwoods!). It was at a relatively small supermarket near home, but part of a national chain (well, they have 3 or 4) so they’re always well stocked. Of course, [...]
My favourite quick dessert to make recently has been an apple crumble. I don’t need a recipe and once I have an apple or 2 I have all the ingredients at hand. Peel, core and slice. Mix in nutmeg syrup (or honey) and add liberal amounts of cinnamon and less liberal amounts of clove. A [...]
I just wrapped up an outstanding work-paper, and started reading the news online. And discovered this article in the Trinidad and Tobago Express, about motorists calling for a warning sign on a particular stretch of highway. When I saw the headline - Motorists lobby for warning sign on highway ‘death stretch’ - and from the South Bureau, [...]

Well, my new home on the internet, at least. New me? We’ll see.
I have a couple real posts to publish this week, about my cooking ventures recently, during my time home (more Alton Brown/Good Eats mandatory recipes) and from my Old Year’s weekend by myself in Guyana. But this is just me checking in, to [...]
Happy New Year to all my readers, friends, commenters and lurkers alike.
If I was into making resolutions for the new year, I’d say I will try to make 2008 a somewhat more productive and organised year for my blogging ventures. All those unpublished posts? BAM! Done. New ideas for featuring Caribbean Cuisine - [...]
Seriously? Emeril?
Who’s Your Celebrity Chef Match?
My Result: Emeril Lagasse
Bam! When it comes to whipping up something in the kitchen, you’re rarely afraid to kick it up a notch. That’s why your celebrity chef match is Emeril Lagasse, the king of notch-kicking. While some may be a little intimidated by cooking [...]
Sigh. Poor dog didn’t make it to Trinidad. He still has hope, though. Hope that one day he’ll break free. (Do I sniff dramatically here?)
Pearls Before Swine - Don’t Squish the Hat!
If ever I were to go on a cruise, I’d go for the ride. I’ve experienced enough travel to destinations with limited time to [...]
I all prepared to continue posting about Turkey, particularly the food, tonight, but in the meantime, your Pearls update: the guard dog is still heading for that cruise to Trinidad.
Pearls Before Swine - Panama Hat
Would it really take a chained up dog to dream of holiday-fun in Trinidad? At least he’s happy thinking about it…
