Some of the foods I miss and wished I knew how to cook are all from Suriname.

I love making meatballs in red wine and tomato sauce. Okro soup, a favourite dish in parts of Africa, is another favourite. I like crab and lobster in it.

I love to cook although not everything I cook I like to eat. I made shepherds’ pie last week and although everyone loved it all I had was a bite.  Same goes for lasagna.
I made apple curry yesterday and still thinking if I will eat any.
Also, made lamb stew which I love.

cainstah, this is a thread to tell us about that potato curry where u crack the egg in it😂 I am sure it was delish

Not surprised that your grandkids didn’t want to eat ur channa n potato curry...got to stat them young. My one yr old enjoyed some potato curry. Of course I did not put hot pepper.

You wanna hear my mess up egg curry story again? Hehehe...egg and yolk floating in the curry taranted. So dem chiren at ages of 3 and 4 too old now to introduce dem to curry? Oh rassss they shoulda been bottle fed the stuff.

Today I made a meatless pie..threw some curry and Yves vegetarian mince into the filling Voila!

😂😂 No Cainstah, intro them grand piknee to mild curry. I do two pots. I cook everything without salt and pepper then when half cook, I take out a bit for my lildoll and let it cook with tiny bit salt in a lil pot.  I then add proper salt and some hot pepper to the big pot. Sometimes I put a little ketchup in the pot with curry for baby.

Do u eat mustard greens and kale? I have so much in the garden that I have to start throwing it out😔. Too bad u live 2 hrs away

Talk about smoking, before I started to get injections in one of my 👁 the doctor said I could use cannabis to help alleviate pain! Man, if I take Tylenol I am high, don’t know what would’ve happened. I am allergic to cig smoke and just smelling weed gives me headache 🤕

Apparently CBD which is used for pain (and doesn't give you the same wompyeyed feeling) is not good to use for those with eye problems. How come I had to get dem injections..hehe.   I haven't had one of those eye needles since moving North..haven't seen the dr neither...going on four years. One day all my parts gonna jus stay so an fall off....is laff I gon dead with laff, unless my mouth fall off too.

One of our lady friend who visit here one one time told me her hubby been taking those needles for bout ten years.

Cainstahman, is it lucentis? I used to go to Don mills n Lawrence.  Did not go since March last year and may not go again. I used to have anxiety for days b4. All I thought about was 2 needles going in eye. So far eye seems ok with occasional pain

Tomorrow we chat pvte about dem eye needles

Mr T! Time for some earl grey😉

I love ochre soup with any seafood.... I love seafood ( had the best seafood chowder in the Emerald Isle )

At a day after wedding soirée, I had a most delish fish soup with lots of spinach and ochro. I also like metem ( coconut milk soup)

It was Lawrence East of Brimley across from the Nursing home..the building housed a TD Bank previously if I recall correctly. I believe it is a branch of Bochner Institute. Dr Dingleberry could be his name ..nahhhh  it was Dr Cheskes.

I wanna try make good dumplin..I even mess that up.

Same here. I even have problems with roti. Must be the flour.

True dat T, couldn't have anything to do with us.

Just google guyanese dumplings and follow recipe

if Alicia has a recipe, use hers. I know some visitors who buy Festival packages at no frills when they used to visit TO.

Today on the menu is dhal, rice, roti, fry ochro, mixed greens bajee organic garden-grown spinach and some green apple curry

I enjoy tasty dishes. If it pleasing to my palate I take pleasure in every mouth full and never in a rush for the meal to finish. I am warned about my cravings. I figure, I would never say, well I wished I had eaten this or that. Pastries I love.

I always declare,"One day I am going to cook for myself."  A voice in another room could  be heard, "when yuh goan do it nah, please hurry up"

I really do not know if I could really cook anything. I promise to try. Ah! but time?

Siggy, you ever try an make a peanut butter sandwich?

Today is lef lef day. Lef over pizza, lef over fry rice, lef over something else I not sure what....
