No, It's Not Scrambled Eggs. It's Ackee!
As a child, I was often awakened on Saturday mornings by the smell of a hearty breakfast wafting through the house. My favourite days were the days my mom would make ackee and saltfish. What’s that you might ask? Well, ackee is the national fruit of Jamaica while ackee and saltfish is the national dish. I know what you’re thinking. Fish and fruit for breakfast? Such an odd combination. Interestingly, ackee is unique and unlike any other fruit. Not only is it savoury, but it also cannot be eaten unless it’s cooked.

Lemon Curd Dessert Shots
Of course, you probably know me very well for invading Vocal with my film studies stuff and articles entitled ‘a filmmaker’s guide’. I have often explained that I love to bake as well. Since I was young, I have loved the idea, the creativity and the relaxation of baking different things. I love to make macarons, layer cakes and gingerbread in particular and the activity of it really gets me away from my laptop (where I’m sure you know that I spend most of my life). So, I hope you enjoy me talking about what I bake and why I bake it complete with pictures (if not very good) of me actually baking, my baked goods in the process of being created and when they’re finished. I’m really happy to share this with you. And if you like, you can show me your baking (yes, I spend a lot of time writing, but I also spend a lot of time reading other people’s articles!), I would love to see it. Since I was in school, I was always interested in creating things, whether that be pieces of writing, welding things to make small statues or baking foods and making sweets (candy, if you’re American). I hope you enjoy looking at some of the stuff that has honestly kept me sane, because I seem to be going slightly mad.

Donzii's Signature BBQ Ribs
I remember in my second year of university, my best friend reported me to the director of the school, and not for the reason you think. Our sub-division, the school of tourism, only had one hundred students and because of this, the administration had close-knit relationships with us. My best friend was concerned about my poor eating habits because I would often have my first meal at 6 p.m. This was always unintentional, but she felt that an authority figure needed to intervene and help me with my eating dilemma. It seemed like an odd choice, as though the admin team genuinely cared for the students, I'm not exactly sure what the director could have done to make me break this personal habit.

Peppermint and Chocoate
The anticipation was the best part of my mother's weekly surprise for us. She would bake a cake, not just a cake, but a special cake each Saturday afternoon for my sister and myself. Oh, they were marvelous. One week she baked a cake with M & Ms stuck on the frosting, and one week she made a cake with a big clown on the top, but there was one cake that stole my heart. It was a Hershey's cocoa cake recipe from the can, and the icing recipe was there as well. It was so rich and chocolaty, but the thing that made it so special were the peppermint candies she would crush and put on top of the cake.

Momma's Stuffed Pepper
A recipe that makes a really unique memory to me would be my mother's stuffed peppers recipe. I am not a cook by any means but I have been asked to bring this for events, and I feel I have delivered. I have made this for coworker's, a church group, a surprise date night, and a cookout. I have been asked for the recipe and I said just cook with me, it's that easy.

Not A Family Recipe
The recipe I am about to tell you about is not a recipe which has been in my family for generations. Or the one that people beg me to bring along every event. It is not fancy, or something you would present in front of the judges on Master Chef. This recipe is merely a classic. This recipe can be considered as iconic, undoubtedly one of the most comforting baked goods, thinking about it right now makes my mouth water. But there is a catch! If not done correctly, you have to throw it out because it is nearly impossible to recover.

Macaroni and Please, May I Have Another Helping?
My dad has prepared Thanksgiving and Christmas meals ninety-nine percent of the time. The same goes for other holidays and Sunday evening meals, as well as meals throughout the week. On any given holiday, there is the main protein, the green sides and other trimmings, but nothing is more soulful and comfort-giving than his homemade baked macaroni and cheese.

Carrie's Que
There are memes all over the internet that true grill masters wear a specific type of shoe. It’s a black or brown leather sandal that crisscrosses across the foot. I don’t own a pair, but anyone that has had my BBQ knows that I am a pitmaster in my own right. Even though I don’t don a special pair of shoes, I always perch a hat atop my head. I place a hat firmly on my head like I’m Ash Ketchem preparing for battle. It’s my signature style, but also my way of remembering and connecting with the woman that taught me everything I knew.
