CaribbeanApples - Bajan Cherries

1. Health

It has more vitamin C than almost anything on Earth

Literally. One small Bajan cherry contains roughly 65 times the vitamin C of an orange of the same weight. A single handful can deliver more than your recommended daily intake. The fruit registers between 1,000 and 4,500 mg of vitamin C per 100g — numbers that... Read Full Post...

DESTINATION: Barbados

A sun-soaked Caribbean paradise where turquoise waters meet powdery pink-sand beaches and swaying palms. Known for its friendly Bajan spirit, the island blends British colonial heritage with vibrant local culture—think cricket matches, calypso rhythms, and some of the world’s finest rum. Whether you're snorkeling vibrant reefs, exploring historic Bridgetown, or simply unwinding at a beachfront rum shack with fresh flying fish, Barbados delivers effortless charm and year-round warmth.

Caribbean Apples: Take some breadfruit, some plantains, add salt fish or chicken or vegan, chop in some Callaloo or fresh spinach or a little of both, thow in some okra, carrots, pumpkin, sweet potatos and/or yams and green bananas.

Before the Maps, the Pitons Were Already Here

St. Lucia's Pitons are not conventional volcanoes. They are lava domes — thick plugs of magma that pushed upward through the earth's crust and hardened in place millions of years ago, never erupting, never collapsing. The same tectonic forces that built them are still at work: fifteen minutes from where I park my truck every morning, a volcanic caldera bubbles and hisses at the surface.

Arawak and Kalinago peoples lived beneath these peaks long before any European arrived. The Kalinago called the island Hewanorra. France and Britain eventually fought over it fourteen times — an almost absurd number — before Britain prevailed in 1814. Through every colonial war and shift of flag, the mountains stood still. When St. Lucia gained independence in 1979, the Pitons went straight onto the national coat of arms. No one argued about that... read full article...
