~ Master Chef ~

Its official, my darling husband is an excellent cook. I kind of knew this for awhile now and I must say I'm pretty lucky that he can cook some great meals. He can whip up a meal out of (what I think) nothing. I would look in the fridge to make a meal and feel frustrated that I couldn't see much to make a decent meal out of. Then good ol' Master chef goes in there and emerges with a big grin and a superb meal. Ok aside from the fact that I really am not a good cook it is just great that hubby can kick butt in the kitchen. In my defense I make good breakfast is about my only strong cooking points while babe can entertain me with a three course meal: when he's up to it. So I leave him to watch all the BBC Food shows as much as he wants:)

Married life definately has its advantages and being married to a man that can cook is a bonus.
You have a gem of a husband.

My husband is no cordon blue but he is creative and can also make a hearty meal from scratch.
I am pitiful in the kitchen but what I lack in skill I make up for in praises. Complementing the chef frequently and a clean plate is a sure sign of one who is appreciative of the meal.ha!ha!

Take care.

Haha. That's great. It must be wonderful having a chef for a husband. My hubby is pretty adept at "Samoan style" cooking i.e. anything to do with elegi, mamoe or fasi povi. God, give me pasta any day. Lol.

Yeah your cooking is limited to bacon and eggs. Mine is cooking rice. Har! Pugi!

Lots of love for you two!!

Samaga Pe'a

The time came when the completion of the tattooing sessions were near. We went to Samoa for three and a half weeks and we were hoping that it would be done well before then but by the third week we were not so sure we'd be done well before or in time. You see in Samoa there are a lot of unforseeable circumstances that arise. One of those was the tattooist's family from ovearseas showed up for family meetings and all. So there had to be days off while the tufuga dealt with his family duties. On top of that Mother's day followed and then the final week was full on tattooing everyday until it was completed on Saturday. On this Saturday I dropped the two victims off to the tufuga's house, hung around to serve breakfast and then went back to our host family to help with the preparations for the samaga ceremony. Samaga is the ceremony that formalises the completion of the tufuga's work and where he lifts his taboos and bans and let's the new pe'as out into the wor...

Fagu'u / Samoan oil

Image
Samoan oil in Fanta and tobasco sauce recycled bottles at Fugalei market. The bottle caps are made of coconut husks wrapped in plastic to keep the husk in place. You've got to love the recycling sense. Samoan oil is used as moisturiser, hair gel, ointment, antiseptic and mosquito repellant oh and used as 'glitter' when dancing. I remember going to school covered in it when we were little. I'm sure I had nightmares for years after whenever I smelled it. But then it was okay because everyone else at school was covered in it too. Oh and we made our own too. My grandma who was blind and paralysed sensed it was going to rain and would yell out to us to come bring the lolo (process or state of making Samoan oil) inside the house because water pollutes the pure oil. So I must attribute my smooth skin to the fagu'u that grandma used to remind us every morning to make sure we had covered our bodies with. Choo hooo fresh off the island ow:)

Jebel Sifa beauty

Early 2018 post We went to Sifawy Boutique Hotel last week with the family and we found it was quiet there. What a breathtaking set up they have there. Just beautiful with marina out front for the kids to ride their scooters and skate while we adults lounge around the pool and breeze bar. We ran into our friends there so the kids had friends to play with so it was lovely.
