Children's Christmas Rhymes
Mince pies and carrots on the plate
Glass of milk in pride of place
Under the tree is the perfect place
Waiting for Santa with his jolly face
Santa plays the perfect role
Sack in hand, presents placed
Off he goes to another place
Riding high in the sky
I caught a glimpse as reindeer galloped by
Merry Christmas everyone

Coconut 100 Ways
I am so grateful that after many years of dreaming, I finally have the opportunity to have my own cookbook published. As a young girl I always dreamed of this and after a long time with many days spent walking around with notepads and jotting down all the recipes I could remember and those I created, I have finally reached the goal which seemed to be so elusive. Creating dishes has always been something which gave me a lot of joy and has always been and will always be my passion.
I have used coconut in nearly every recipe in some way. It is the most versatile fruit I have ever known. The coconut ‘meat’ is used for medicinal purposes, cooking and beauty products. The shell can be used to make decorative items. The husk for cleaning. So come with me to a small town in St. Thomas, Jamaica, surrounded by rivers and join my neighbourhood as we all get together and cook, drink and have a good time.
