fish pie

ever since i arrived to turks and caicos i’ve been trying to cook more. back home life was such a rush that i ended up improvising last minute. so i decided it was time to start cooking grown up food!

this fish pie recipe from jamie oliver is one of my favourite meals so far, i love that it has so much fish, it reminds me of a real home cooked meal, and its so different from what i would’ve cooked myself.

i’m desperately looking for more fish recipes, so if you have any suggestions, i would love to give them a try!

  • a visit to green bean for breakfast, delicious salad lunch or just coffee and cookies
  • sunset drinks at veranda resort

i can’t believe it’s already saturday! this must be the first time i haven’t been to the beach fo a whole week – so you can imagine, i’m dying to get  in the water!

this afternoon i am volunteering at the tcspca dog show in turtle cove and i’m crossing my fingers for matilda and t bone to win!

james and i will defintely go to the beach tomorrow and i’ll be paying a visit to the spa!

somewhere / providenciales

  

until you’ve been (to) somewhere.

sometimes i have to remind myself to take full advantage of the island life. so yesterday i suggested we go (to) somewhere  after work. it’s one of my favourite spots, very casual, great view, i love that they have their daily ice tea specials and usually i go for their fish tacos – so yum!

i know, i know, you must think all we eat around here is mexican…i promise to post some pictures of local food soon!

oh so delicious

first i had to stop drinking cow milk, apparently it’s no longer healthy, so i forced myself to enjoy soy milk. then i hear soy milk isn’t healthy either as it is very processed, so i go for almond and rice milk – i was getting a little confused i confess.

then i find these coconut based products at iga gourmet and thought humm…coconut sounds much nicer than cow, soy, rice or almond – i decided to give it a try. my favourite is the coconut based plain yogurt, but i can’t wait to try the ice creams!

oh so yummy, i am addicted to these.
