    A Typical Morning in Montego Bay In case any of you wanted to know how glamorous mornings were when I was in Montego Bay for 2 months, here’s a video post showing a typical one. A typical morning went like so: Rise around 8:00am to thug music, come downstairs in my usual ugly morning mood,…

  • Chocolate Really Is Sweeter In Jamaica

    Well this one is pretty self explanatory. Not much to say here that the pictures don’t already say! There was some kind of chocolate soiree going on in a Sandals resort in Ocho Rios last week and we were just passing through when we happened to stumble across chocolate people. The only logical thing I…

    This is quite possibly going to be my shortest blog post ever but I’ve saved this photo for months just to show you! It was the most peculiar thing I randomly noticed for the first time in all my years of traveling to Jamaica. The “cold drink fee”. Apparently when you buy a cold drink…

    Since I’ve been living here and have slowly been getting tired of Jamaican food (yes believe it or not!) I’ve been on the hunt for some great foreign food. For years I’ve walked past the sign on DaCosta Drive that says Evita’s Italian restaurant but have never gone in because I don’t really like to…

    This wasn’t really a cooking lesson but it was fun and interesting to watch anyways. I love when we cook outdoors here, it reminds me of camping back home. This dude is a neighbor from up the street and we were chatting about red pea soup and how I love it. 20 minutes later he…

    I’ve been to this spot in Mammee Bay twice now – once for drinks after dark and once for dinner. The night someone took me for drinks here I was totally impressed with the evening ambiance, perfect spot for a first date or a romantic evening. When I came for supper on another occasion I…

  • Making Mint Tea in Jamaica

    I suppose anyone anywhere could write about making mint tea but since I’m in Jamaica it fits on my Jamaican blog. I’ve never made tea this way but I know they make tea out of everything here….they even have one called bush tea. But it tastes bad so I don’t drink it. Some of my…

    This post is near and dear to my heart and the discovery of the flask in Jamaica was an epiphany for me….the one who isn’t a cheap date at a bar! And years after my first trip to Jamaica someone FINALLY let me in on the flask secret which isn’t really a secret at all!…

    Everyone loves a Jamaican food post so here’s a new one for you! Can you believe it took me 14 trips to Jamaica to even know what “chunks & beans” was? I found it at Fishermans Beach in Ochi and I think I overdosed on it in a two-week period of time. Unless a place…

    It seems I either ate a lot of food on my last trip or I just took way more pictures of food than usual, but here’s another food post! Before I went on this past trip I kept joking about the fried chicken parade I wanted to do…basically eat as much fried chicken as possible…
