Re: Westmoreland Vignettes

It must have been interesting watching the kids shell the outer crust of the tamarind.
Your picture reminds me of my 3 and 4yo grandsons removing ackee from the pod last week end.
They cannot say that they never did it.

Re: Westmoreland Vignettes

Thank you, Jitterbug, about the kids. We really aim for that, so it warms my heart to hear that. The yard there really is beautiful, and gets better and better all the time. I will post more of it.

Cinni, thank you. They are both very, very comfortable there. In fact, it is usually Boy Biscuit (made in Jamaica) that gets the comments the most form my Jamaican friends. They just consider him a Jamaican Boy, they tell me.

Thanks, Schultz! Maybe we could get together next trip?!

Q3210, here are a few more of the tamarind harvesting (which went on daily). Even my boy, who was not quite 3 in these, can do it. I did find a seed or two in his diapers, though! LOL



Here with his best girl. Remember her as tiny baby?




Girl Biscuit has been absolutely dying to pick her own bananas, but so far, we keep landing in between ripening. They certainly look wonderful though!! Each trip, something is ripe, and pickable. One of my favorite things about taking my kids there is that. I just love watching them learn what’s what with the other kids, and trying new things.
