I have neglected this blog lately, but surely have not neglected cooking! I have been making Caribbean food and sharing it with friends. Tonight I made a wonderful chili with a Caribbean twist. I am used to making the Mexican version and it is probably my favourite food. Tonight's dish, however, had thyme, soy sauce, cinnamon and nutmeg in it. But it was fantastically wonderful, making it my favourite dish so far. I think I say that about every dish I make ;-) I just love trying new foods from around the world with new flavours. Thanks to Caribbean recipes, I am discovering thyme and what a wonderful herb it is.

I also recently made a very spicy Mexican dish. It was pork with pineapple and TWO jalepeno peppers :-) I felt like my mouth was on fire, but it was definitely worth it!
