Good food that you didn't have to pay someone to make.

One of the best cures for the hang over that tags along after a long night on the town is some good home made food and maybe some coffee. But this post is not to reminisce about the taste of caffeine. No its about fooooooooood. Yummy home made goodness. Yesterday I was talking to my aunt who lives in Trinidad with my mom and sisters and she proceeded to inform me that she had curry crab and dumplings for lunch. If you don't know what that is my friend you haven't lived, or you are canadian haha. Oh the things i would do for some good caribbean food. If I were on death row and I had to choose my last meal it would be that. Unfortunately for me i was never keen on learning to cook these delicious meals. The only time i was ever in the kitchen was when the food was finished being cooked and I was first in line with my plate ready to be served. To me a piratical meal was something I could take out of a box pop in the microwave and at the sound of the ding two minutes later I could devour. Unfortunately for me I can't go home on the weekends to get home cooked meals . However the void that was created by the absences of the yummy caribbean goodness has been replaced by some good made from scratch baked goods. Its a HOJ tradition to make cupcakes for every house party. Last night I went to a house party held by the gryphons swim and lifeguard teams and they tried to imitate out HOJ tradition. Well, u know that saying that when you are hungry u'll eat just about anything . Well, there was no amount of hunger that could me eat a second cupcake. i don't think i could put into words how disappointed I was in those cupcakes. I think i've just been a bit spoiled by Lo and her amazing baking skills. Please come back and bake for us.
