These berries and grapes and fruits made a wonderful fruit salad.. This dish includes: fresh strawberries sliced, fresh grapes, fresh blue berries a fresh lemon peeled and sliced, few prunes, and craisens. yes prunes and craisins, they are delicious too.

Rice and peas is one of the native dish of Jamaica. This dish is made by many other cultures with each one adding their own little twist to make it a wonderful dish each time. In my cuture, coconut milk, thyme and green onion are three of the items that makes it caribbean.
You ever had one of those days when you do something against your better judgement. Well this day was mine. I made this lovely apple cake and to make a long story short, I manage to drop half of the cake, so I decide to slice the remaining portion. I had just enough for the meal.
These stuffed shells were not the very best I have ever made. I tried a new recipe and I prefer my old recipe so I will post the old recipe soon.
I tossed the cabbage in a dressing and the bottom part was just there to be thrown away. I thought what a waste so i made a floret to hold the carrots and the dish looked quite beautiful on the table and was pretty good too.
Experimenting with different foods. Just make a filling that you like and lay the leaves in a container under the hot running water until it wilts a little and can roll easily. Put filling on the leafy green part of the leaf and roll, laying the roll on the end of the wrap. You may make a little dipping sauce of your own. Its almost like a spring roll, or cabbage wrap just using the napa as the wrap. Enjoy this dish with your own creations, whether its vegetable filling cooked or raw, a mixture of vegetable and meat or just meat. It can be quite a hit with your friends and love ones. It is such a pretty vegetable. Fits right in in this case as a finger food.
