For many years, I had a love-hate relationship with TJX stores. You know, the family of discount stores that includes HomeGoods, Marshalls and T.J.Maxx.
Finding clothing in my size was a rare occurrence. Finding size-six shoes, even rarer. And scoring items I needed in a complete set was a miracle. Think: curtain panels for a space with more than two windows or dinnerware for a party of six.
Recently, I realized I’ve been going about my shopping at TJX stores all wrong.
In case I’ve never said it, Nando’s Peri-Peri is one of my favorite fast-casual restaurants.
My “usual” is a veggie burger topped with a pineapple slice and halloumi, and a side of butternut squash and grilled corn. It is so delicious!
On Friday, I just had to have it. Thousands of miles away from D.C. and with no Nando’s in sight in Barbados, I headed to the kitchen to recreate it–with a twist.
I’m so delighted with how it turned out, I’m sharing the photos and tips for making it with you.
At the start of 2016, I got a medical wake-up call that revealed how flawed my eating habits were. I was eating way too much sugar and bad carbs, and not enough vegetables, fresh foods and the right kinds of protein.
To get things started, I challenged my self to seven days of eating healthy meals, including salads.
Just two days in, I realized how hard it can be to come up with ideas that are filling and taste great. So I decided to document my salad-making process in the kitchen and share the recipes here with you.
In case you missed it, avocado is the new “it” food.
Known by many in the Caribbean as “pear,” these days, it is widely celebrated—on social media platforms, in women’s magazines, and by celebrities like Beyoncé.
And there’s a reason for that.
During my childhood in Barbados, fishcakes were ever-present at concerts, festivals and parties. And no trip to Enterprise Beach was complete without stopping by Mr. Delicious, a food van by the ocean, for a bunch.
As I grew older, I decided to learn how to make Bajan fishcakes on my own.
In this blog post, I’m sharing common fishcake-making mistakes I made when I first started practicing and tips for how to avoid them.
Sooo Fabulous!
