Mina Burrows gave me an Award!!!! Yeah...


Kreativ Blogger Award

1.    What is your favorite song? My favorite songs are Just the way You are by Bruno Mars and Jar of Heart by Christina Prerri. Honestly its what my daughter has me singing all the time.

2.    What is your favorite dessert? My favorite dessert is Double Chocolate Cake… Death By Chocolate or Chocolate covered Strawberries. Yummy mouth's watering as I type this.

3.    What ticks you off? Having to repeat myself over and over again and then I get angry with myself when I loose my patience. It is definitely a work in progress.

4.    When you're upset, what do you do? Usually if it is with my son I ask him to leave the room so I can get some time to calm down. But I tend to be that person who takes and takes until I cannot take no more and then I explode. (My husband knows this and tends to push a discussion every time I get quiet or irritable… prevention is better than cure I guess. )

5.    Which is/was your favorite pet? When I was 22 to 24 I had the most loving pit-bull dog whose name was Buddy. He was protective and only had eyes for me. I loved him and since then have not been able to have another pet. I think he took my animal love with him when he passed away.

6.     Which do you prefer, black or white? White Wine… White Coconut Ice Cream… White Donuts … White Roses… Clean White sheets on a hotel bedroom … White Sparkling Champagne…. Boy can I go in!

7.    What is your biggest fear? Loosing my kids… something terrible happening… I want everyone I love to be safe and sound. Please God.

8.    What is your attitude mostly? Funny enough I do not have a definite answer to this. It all depends of where I am or what I am doing. I guess I am very flexible and I would like to think at times… level headed. Just do not ask my husband this question.

9.    What is perfection? Death by Chocolate Cake!!!!

10.                  What is your guilty pleasure? Sitting outside with a good book in a bright, cool afternoon. Taking a trip with just my husband - it really rekindles our connection.
These are some question I had to answer pertaining to an award I won from Mina Burrows. Check out what she had to say about herself as well. Congrats to the other winners. I am looking out for your answers too!!!

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...

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...

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!!!
