One of my Relax Vices...

Normally I am an avid reader. I would try to read as much as my hectic life would allow. I recently got enthralled in the Nightwalker Series by Jacquelyn Frank and found myself waking at 3am to try and finish one of her books.

But there are times when reading is not the go to thing I want to do... the thing is... sometimes get bored of just reading words. I sometimes just want to lie back and watch TV. Well not TV exactly but movies I have collected and put aside to one day... watch. This is the one vice that allows be to focus on only one thing and indulge in another literally world visually. So I had what my husband called ....
"A Kristen Stewart Weekend."

I would not exactly say I intentionally picked Kristen Steward movies!! It's just that the movies I chose to watch had her as the main character. So yes I had a  KS movie night... but I enjoyed it throughly.


In that I watched Snow White and the Huntsman...


Then I watched New Moon....


Finally I looked at Eclipse!!!


It was great ... and I got the chance to just forget everything and enjoy the moment. After spending day after day looking after kids... this was deservingly sinful!!!

I hope everyone gets a chance to take a break... forget the worries and the To-do list and just enjoy life.

  1. Loved Snow White and the Huntsman! Not a big fan of Kristen Stewart personally, even before the indiscretion :)

  2. I love to read too and I totally get what you're saying about needing a break from it all sometimes and totally veg out on the couch. Thanks for following me on 'The Magic Fix'. I'm so glad that you stopped by and that you introduced me to your fantastic blog. I like to keep my posts really positive too. There is enough negativity in the world without me adding to it, me think!! x

My Version of Fall.

I have been seeing on other blogs beautiful pictures of the ever changing and eye stimulating Fall season. Honestly living in Trinidad limits your experiences of the changing seasons and seeing how spring turns to summer to fall and then winter. All I have is endless summer greenery. All I have is the constant warm weather and lush green rain forests. So I have been living vicariously through other blog admiring the Fall pictures and sometimes questioning if it is really true. Then I had a beautiful sunny day yesterday and got to spend the day just lying on a beach and soaking in the sun. So I decided to give you all my version of Fall. And see what we get during the Fall Season. Enjoy.  I visited a beach house in Blanchisseuse Beach and it was attached to 3 different bays. It was fun just splashing in the waves, and fun exploring each bay in the warming sun. This was a bird's eye view of the bay that had clear green water and little watery caves to hide under. My son...

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!!!
