A Local Haul

Hello lovelies! As per usual, I’ve been slacking, but it’s not for lack of wanting to post. Work has been super hectic and spare moments to even think about a blog post, far less construct one, have been rare. This will be a combination of a haul and a ‘What I Got For Christmas’ type post since…

2012 in Review…kind of

I wanted to do this blog before the first week of the new year was up because, let’s face it, after that 2012 becomes terribly passé. 2012 was a bumpy year. Well it started that way anyway and then took a considerable turn for the better in the latter half. For that, I remain eternally…

The Women Are Getting Angry Boom Champions…

A Night at Emiliana’s

Emiliana Osteria Italiana must be the best kept secret in town – of the Italian variety that is. The intimate and warm Italian restaurant is tucked away on Longden Street, in close vicinity to Lapeyrouse and I don’t doubt that passers-by have often wondered what lay behind the frosted glass facade, a building so starkly…

When is a market not just a market?

I love the local creative industry. I couldn’t think of a more emphatic way to make that statement loud and clear. I am absolutely and completely impressed and enamoured by the talent we have residing here in Trinidad & Tobago. It is a discovery I made by cutting my own way through the overgrown mass…
