rathid...boiled bannnans too I'm just going to wait...wait crying.gif mi caan believe crying.gif -- my husband will only eat the chicken breast. He don't do beef or pork or shellfish. The first time he had can callaloo at a friend's house he didn't even want it on his plate said it was digusting. So I grow as much as I can in the summer and freeze it.

See I am not a lost cause!

No I don't believe I have the apples she had seemed like regular apples you find at stop and shop

No, our apples don't look anything like the yankee apples well, the colour is the same, but they shape like a pear. My dad has avacados in his yard that are the size of papayas

There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore... and who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Dammit, I just lost all my quotes!

I love Conch - I had jerked conch last trip - so good!

Where abouts. I know Hartford has a great Little Jamaica, but are there any other places closer to New Haven County?

Hartford definitely has a great JA area - It's one of the largest West Indian Populations in the US - There are some shops in New Haven, have to think about where now - And in Bridgeport, there is a phenomenal international market - all the spices, butterfish, pumpkin, cho cho,......

Not to mention the chicken man on the Boulevard near the flea market - best jerk!

I am not a fan of boiled bananas - They are okay if you are eating liver or something saucy, but not my favorite thing. Love callalloo

You should have seen Yankee's twins with the apples when we were in JA - they ALWAYS had one in their hand! So cute!
