the randomness of the holidays

the holiday season is here and along with it comes family, family and some more family. since my family is particularly entertaining, it was fun.

i spent thanksgivng day at my grandmother and feasted on traditional belizean food with an american twist (turkey). now, most central americans hate the traditional way a thanksgiving turkey is prepared. maybe we're not doing it right, but i prefer our way anyway. i can't cook, so i can't tell you how to make it, but i can show you.

my aunt was ordained as a woman of the cloth this past weekend. although i am not a big fan of church, it was a wonderful experience to see her become ordained. i really couldn't imagine going to church on a regular basis. i get way too generous. i just pledged an undisclosed amount of money to help with the media program. meh. this was the funniest random shot i took at the church. you'd never see this [stuff] in a white church.


after church, my cousins and i rushed home to get ready to go to the club. yes sir. the highly anticipated "all black affair" at the shatto (pronounced chateau) ballroom had arrived. i had been practicing the dutty wine for two weeks for this night. unfortunately, i did not master the dance. its okay. i'm working on the hot fuck for the bikini contest in belize. this is how we get down at the luxurious shatto ballroom! i hope my cousin, c, doesn't get too mad at me for this one...


the rest of the holiday was spent lounging around with some of my favorite people. don't put us in a house with a box of spanish cava, wine and baileys!
