A traditional Saturday dinnertime fare is soup. In almost every single Jamaican household I’ve been to (yaad and foreign), on a Saturday you don’t have to second-guess what’s on the menu. There’s a wide range of soups locals enjoy: red peas, gungo peas, chicken foot and pumpkin soup are just a few. Last week Saturday, I got a hankering for soup a serious, honest-to-hungry-belly, gnawing in my tummy feeling for soup. The problem is, my helper (bless her heart) was preparing soup in her typical fashion (like many other Jamaicans) thickened with cornstarch/flour and made with high-sodium Cock Soup mix – not in my belly. I enjoy lentil soup with a passion and decided that it would be lunch and dinner on Saturday last.

This morning I woke up to fog, overcast skies and LOTS of rain. Any combination of these factors is guaranteed to make me not feel like working! Looks like I’ll have to grab a cup of coffee to save myself. I hope the heavy rains don’t adversely affect too many communities.

Bun, cheating, infidelity, bruk foot – whatever you want to call it, it’s been a part of relationships since the dawn of time. (Dawn of time? Don’t quote me on that, but I’m pretty sure). Over the past few months, the public has been bombarded by local and international media about which celebrities have been caught stepping out on their significant others, gag orders, injuctions, super-injunctions, love child(ren) etc. What gets me is the shock and awe these stories generate amongst readers.
