TriniGirl

10 points for the person who can identify the dish known as "Horner Man Food". My brother introduced this phrase to my lexicon when our step mother left our dad. Poor Daddy had this dish in heavy rotation on the menu.

I am cooking it tonight (no hints to my husband I hope) and the phrase came back to me.

I find of late, the old lady (me) can't keep with the lingo. Can anyone translate?

Hubby and I are coming into NYC to see Machel's 25th Anniversry Show. Anybody here planning to go? We are going to the 8 o'clock show and would love to meet with fellow Trinis either before or after for a lime. (Warning: My husband is Jamaican, but has been in Trini training for 14 years...he getting there.) Either email me or post. Thanks.

People, I have googled my fingers off and I cannot find the artists to these songs. I got this CD from roti shop in Queens, NY from a really nice guy who sold his stuff out of a garbage bag. Only $5US.

Anyhow, the jacket only lists the title of the songs, but not the artist. Please help a Trini out, nah, and provide me with the names of the artists?

1. Tra La La (This is a song about Santa..the chorus goes, no kidding...Sing tra tra la la la)

2. Trini Christmas (is the bes'...I give him ham and bread together with a pastelle, ginger beer, ponch a creme and sorrel)

3. Play the Parang Song (Soca Parang on meh mind, de sweetest music at Christmas Time, ah want to wine and jump and play the soca parang)

4. Spanish Confusion (Give me rum, give me whiskey, give something to eat....)

5. Be Le (Female - come be le be le with me)

I realise this a music question and not a travel one, but I know my very intelligent fellow Trinis does lime in this category. Please and thank you!
