Sure, we can and do eat pancakes all year round but somehow when there is a designated day, it’s exciting.
In a couple of days it will be Valentine’s. As I thought of what to write about this week, I recalled my Love Letter to Guyanese Cuisine that I wrote last year.
What have you been eating this past week? I ask because January is always a sort of weird month when it comes to eating and drinking.
Parents, do you realise that you are Influencers? Today I want to appeal to you to embrace your role as an Influencer.
Happy New Year Everybody! Yes, it is that time of the year and we must engage in certain routines even if they will last, at best, 2 weeks.
Merry Christmas Everybody! What have you been up to so far?
The year was 2006. My eldest cousin’s wife had cooked quite a spread for her family’s Christmas meal.

Let’s be honest, steamed vegetables can be boring and unappetizing. Whenever they are served, we always feel obligated to take some because it is healthy and good for us – even if we are not monitoring our blood pressure, blood sugar levels or cholesterol.
On My Plate (OMP) is a series in which I share with you what I’m eating.
As I told you last week, I was going to try making Breadfruit Pancakes with the soft overripe breadfruit.
You must try this! It is going to be one of the more enjoyable breads you will boast of having made and eaten.
