Q and A

Daily writing prompt
What are your favorite types of foods?

So I grew up in a very West Indian Afro-Latino kitchen. I ate so much food that was rich in flavor and spice. Tumeric, curry, anis, ginger and so many more spices are the starting point to the flavors. We eat Roti, Platanos, chillies and drink Ginger beers and Sorel. So I guess that would be my favorite type of food. OK, bye.

No, I ate mostly curries and Naan-type breads. They shaped my childhood. I can remember my long-dead family thinking about how wonderful their food smelled. It was a big thing that we shared together. In some cases, it was how they showed love and affection. My Dad used to take my all over town to pick up Roti skins for dinners with long lost relatives. I have such a big family I have only met some of them once ever. We all meetup and eat like royality, everyone shares stories of their lives.

The Caribbean has a lot of great tastes and cultures. Come see Carnival, it will change your life. The joy of strangers compelled to dance in the streets by a common music. Carnival is like a primal scream of beauty, food and dancing wrapped together. There are islands full of smilling faces.

I grew up on somemuch of this music. We would dance in the streets for hours with our neighbors via record players. I love it. I listen to it everyday when I cook my own meals.

Q and A

Name the professional athletes you respect the most and why.

So… I don’t know a lot of sports people. let’s start there. I know the big names 90% of the time. If I had to pick someone from all sports I would say my kiddo hero was Sunny Garcia. He was a pro Surfer.

Sunny was such a bad ass and as an Island person a huge deal. There were not a lot of brown people I could look up to in surfing for a long time. I loved to surf back then. I wanted to go pro. I loved the connection I felt to the oceans.

Sunny Garcia

Life.
