I Love Food!!

I love food! I don't think I can say this too much, as it makes me so happy and also those around me. I enjoy cooking for my family and watching them wipe their plates clean, oh the joy!! My love for food started at an early age. I remember as a child, my cousins and I used to go to the river to wash and catch crayfish that we cooked and enjoyed. Some of my fondest memories were coming home from school to fresh homemade food and having fresh baked bread every Saturday, What a life!!

Food is a huge part of my culture. Growing up in my beautiful Island of Grenada, food has always brought people together more than anything else. We always find a reason to celebrate and 'cook ah pot," as we say. I know the world has change a lot from when I was a child but I use cooking as a way to share our local food with my kids, as we now live away from Grenada.

As I enjoy eating food from different cultures, I also appreciate a good take out at times. It is a dream of mine to travel all over the world and eat local food from different cultures. So while I wait for this to be my reality, I am here to share a plate with you from my kitchen and from our local restaurants. I hope you experience the same joy I do when I cook, eat or dine out! Do enjoy!!
