Flashback: Box Braids at Hellshire, Jamaica.

My birthday is just about here and much to the surprise of many friends and acquaintances, I have no idea how I want to celebrate it. I have the usual dinner with a friend here and there but no official celebration. I started to think about some of my happiest moments since moving back to Jamaica. These pictures represent some of those moments. Unfortunately, the beach is not an option. Gotta go to work.


Do you see the many gifts that God gives you everyday?


Playing with the jelly coconut before splitting it in two with a machette  in order to devour the soft, tasty coconut meat. Hmmm. Maybe I should buy a jelly coconut on my way home.


I was particularly fond of this set of box braids. They were so neatly done. 

It's ime for me to make a decision on my birthday. Not celebrating it is not an option. I might regret not doing anything but I certainly won't regret having some fun.

  2. Well, what did you decide? You are worth celebrating, so whatever you do, stick with the decision to celebrate somehow!

    I'm in Jamaica right now, and we went to Hellshire two weeks ago. The food, the food, the food!!

    I do my best to acknowledge the gifts Creator gives me every day, and I'm glad you do too!

  5. Hey Execumama. Unfortunately I got a nasty cold and was holed up in my bed with a fever. I guess I celebrated by not going out in the cold night air - that would have been suicide.

    Yeah girl. The food at Hellshire is great. Glad you're acknowledging your gifts too!
