Peace out…deuce is what my 2 year old says as she holds up the peace sign when anyone leaves (her Dad is responsible), so I’m borrowing her term to let you all know that Elvis [...]

I had on a leather jacket, closed toe shoes, and any other insulation I could find this past weekend because it was literally freezing. Today I had on shorts, a T-shirt and flip flops. Only in Texas could the temperature go from 34 to 75 in less than 48 hours…gotta love it! They say everything [...]

This used to be my jam back in my college days! I still remember the girls running to the middle of the dance hall floor and parading around like a bunch of ostriches when it came on. LOL!

I would normally finish books of this size in about a week combined with all my other responsibilities but since I’ll be living [...]

This weekend was in stark contrast to last weekend for me. Last weekend I was yelling and screaming while watching Hatton and Mayweather on pay-per-view!

My “Did You Know They Were Jamaican” post earlier this week was incorrect. After receiving a comment and researching for almost 20 minutes I was finally able to verify that Condoleezza Rice is not Jamaican. Evidently I and a lot of other people are being mis-informed (just do a Google search), including the President of [...]

I was watching The View on ABC yesterday and got really intrigued when Barbara Walters started explaining how she was trying to help a friend of a friend, whose green card had expired by calling the US Embassy in Jamaica and what a nightmare it was. I raised an eyebrow and smirked as I listened [...]

I absolutely love escoveitch fish. I can eat if for breakfast with porridge, I can eat it with bread almost like a sandwich, and I can eat it by itself. It’s just something about the mix of the fish, vinegar, and a little ketchup on the side that just goes oh so well together. Well, [...]
