To Blog or Not To Blog… that is the question. (The Hunger Game by Suzanne Collins).


It is amazing how addictive blogging can become. I actually find myself wondering if to add something daily, or if to wait a couple of days before trying to add something of significance. But then again… what is really significant?

 I can tell you I am completely enjoying reading ‘The Hunger Games’. The writing style is a little different to the norm with its short sentences, but it still manages to capture your interest. I have only started so I do not know where it is going, so only time will tell how these relationships turn out.
“Will she fall in love with Peeta?”
“Will she have to kill him?”
“Will she ever see G ale again?”
Some many question and only time will reveal the truth. JUST LIKE LIFE.

The mystery is what is forcing you to read on. In the end you want to know who it is she really can trust.

I can tell you one thing… after reading just the first part I cannot wait to see the movie. I am officially a FAN.

    My book club read "Hunger Games" and found it to be a compelling plot - as well giving us some great social commentary to contemplate long after the final page.

Family Traditions!!!!

If it is one thing I look forward to around this time is the Carreira's Christmas Tree Family Tradition! Founded by ME :) my sisters and my mom started visiting (or going house to house) homes to help decorate the Christmas Tree as well as decorate the home. When my son was not even a year old was when this tradition began... in my home in Port of Spain. Now 8 years later it has become a Family get together, food and drinks sharing .... and putting up the decorations. I LOVE it. Coming from a home with many siblings (3 brother and 3 sister ... most married with children) it is great when most gather and the house is filled with everyone. Lets just say it is a lot of laughs, bickering, laughs ... silent moments when our mouths are filled with food ... and then delegation on the work area. Did I mention I LOVE it. So here are some pics of the end result. My home is now filled with Christmas ... and I have to start wrapping present. :) This picture shows my mom, a...

Anticipating Grenada!

As most mothers and parents secretly wish, Getting away without the kids is usually hard to accomplish. But this weekend my husband and I eagerly await, A vacation in Grenada for 2, we were able to create!!!! I cannot wait for the clear blue sea, I cannot wait for it to be just him and me. I cannot wait for the sunny sky, To just lie on the beach and watch the day go by. I wish for all to be able to see, How important it is for the adults to be free. To take some time and enjoy just being together, Making sure they remember why they chose to be ... forever. My countdown for Grenada is on.... 3 days to go!!!

She called her 'Gan'

My mother when she was a little girl, was dressed in a crown of flowers, a new dress and shoes and went to throw petals at the feet of her grandmother at the Santa Rosa Festival in Trinidad. You see her grandmother was a Carib Queen and every year they celebrated this Catholic festival in Arima, Trindad. I have never experienced this and though the Carib bloodline is being passed on through me, there is not much I can say about my heritage. In jest I would tell other who ask what I am mixed with, I would say "my people were here first... we did not arrive by boat... we were natives." But I really do not know what that really means. I do not know how to live off the land. In fact I kill all plants and animals that enter my home. I should put a sign ... "Enter at your own risk!" But I do want to understand this particular part of my ancestry. Although I am mixed with Chinese, Spanish, Scottish and Protégées, I have always been curious of the one culture that was h...
