I tasted the macaroni cheese
today in the packet, the one my kids were pulling their faces at in Negril.It was delicious I really enjoyed it and the kids said mmm yummy this is nicer than the other one so obviously someone either cooked it wrong or something because it was the same packet.It was really nice too, I wish I would have tasted it at the start of my holiday it would have been macaroni and cheese everyday LOL it was really nice think it was about 100j or even 80j a packet with everything included and it fed 4 people BARGAIN ALERT!
But because the kids said it was awful I never tried it and it is Jamaicas hidden secret!I want to buy some to take home.
Today I went house hunting in dreamland! I looked at a lot of mini mansions all being built and looked at plots of land for sale and discussed prices and deals that could be had.We discussed how much land costs and then how much materials and workmanship cost to build.There are some magnificent mini mansions around here and I even wrote a song about it!
I saw cows and goats and a variety of cute pretty flowers and plants which are perfect for my sons school project and the sun was beaming down through the clouds so you could see the rays it was like God whispering through the clouds or blowing gently through the clouds, maybe he is gently blowing some reggae my way ha ha.
Last night I got into bed and I heard BOOM BOOMBOOM and I thought am I dreaming? Am I still in Negril?There was a big party round here somewhere and I was NOT notified dayammn.
Sounded really good too.I did check the signs yesterday for parties but they were all out of date.
It is homecooked chicken in sauce with veg and rice and peas today and I still have not been shopping for the coleslaw LOL I am so last minute it is unbelievable will I ever get my coleslaw I wonder?
I am taking the kids into town tomorrow maybe go to Kfc or a burger bar and get some dvds so I will pick up some coleslaw ingredients then!
I was going to go today but lack of sleep from the party noise and psychotic animals got to me a bit today!
I am surrounded by lizards , gigantic spiders, cows, goats, butterflies, dogs and cats and that is without bending my neck who knows what is around the corner for this city girl!
I am not a big pet person I sometimes feel I have landed in the middle of a jungle like big zoo! Moooooooo woof woff meow hissssss ssssss and of course the vultures and the tree frogs and the cockerels.
If they all shut the hell up when I want to go to bed I am happy.If not they drive me crazy like lastnight and we had to intervene and separate them as it is insane .
My sister in law has a tortoise and a chicken and a donkey and some goats too.
SQUAK HEE- HOR HEE -HOR HELPPPPPP!
CITY GIRL TURNED JUNGLE-ISTA

****I missed this part out...my arrival in country from negril day 1****
(From when I WAS CRYING IN THE CAR SAYING BYE TO NEGRIL)
OMG LOL what was this?What a wuss I am. TICTOC was crying OMG nobody makes tictoc cry EVER only Jamaica can make me cry.I never cry I don’t really show feelings too much it’s too much effort LOL
But there I was bawling like a baby…wiped my eyes let out our friend and on with our journey into the hills.Bye bye Negril until we meet again and everyone and everything in it.And of course all of the people and things and food and places I SAVED especially for next time.
I should practise what I preach and do everything in the here and now as next time and ONE DAY may never come but I can’t, I like to save things so I have things to look forward to for next time and always save the best things until last.
I have saved a lot of things to do on my return,
I need to bring a whole stashful of money though to complete it all.There was a traffic accident at the roundabout on the way out of Negril then we took the road past rooftop club out of Negril.I waved bye bye to the beach park BYE BYE My baby soundsystem I LOVE you BOOM BOOM BOOM I waved bye to the patty shop and fatties and the blue sea and American pie nightclub and all of the little spots I will miss, Looked fondly through the window that was tinted and the handle was b@@@@ broke so I could not put it down and take photographs damn!
We passed bamboo avenue and middle quarters and past Peter toshs burial site.We arrived fairly quickly to the family home.
My father in law greeted us at the gate Hey we are homeeee
He is doing really well I think he is about 90 years old now
Then my mother in law came out and my sister in law and one of her children.Some chicken and home cooked gorgeous sauce waiting for me wooooo this is what I been waiting for the real deal homecooked food.
Pictures of me all up on the walls in my wedding dress and photographs of all of my family , yes this is my home I am welcome here and happy and it is always nice here.

There are 2 new additions here a mother cat and baby kitten quite cute even though I am not a pet person.I have taken photographs to share with you.
So our driver decided he want to HOLD A VYBE LOL take a likkle rest hold a vyb a meditation LOL

NAUGHTY NAUGHTY so I am now on an official rum ban and I have to behave , maybe we will attend church, the children best behave or else! No whining about food no sirrrrrr
Homework is a full time priority now.
