actual work goes down and it is fun to have that time

with your colleagues to chat about everyone’s plans for

the Christmas break and waiting for the proverbial

clock hand to reach noon. At which point, almost the

entire town or city where you work will have people

leaving their places of employ, in crowds and full of

guilty pleasure heading for the local pub.

My absolute, most favorite part of Christmas Eve

is heading home and taking in all the mouthwatering

smells in preparation for the day ahead, baking minced

pies, glazing hams and most of all praying that the

turkey was not still frozen inside! As always, everything

would turn out fine and everyone would just enjoy eat-

ing Christmas lunch, relaxing, watching TV specials,

playing games and spending time with our nearest and

dearest, because that is really what it is all about.

We at the Limin’ Times wish you and your families

happy holidays and all the very best for the New Year.

Christmas at Home

I love Christmas and look forward to it every year,

the decorations, the presents under the tree, the con-

stant smell of something lovely cooking – and, of

course being around family and friends. I also enjoy

being in the BVI at this time of year, with its own

Christmas traditions such as the Christmas concerts,

events, parades and the seasonal food such as black

cake, coconut and guava tarts and the quintessential

guavaberry liquor.

However, when possible I like to be “home” with

my family for Christmas, which for me is the UK. Even

the weather, usually cold at this time of year, does

make for a cozy atmosphere. And there is the fact that

Christmas really begins in November, by the middle of

which, all of the stores and streets are decked out like

a winter wonderland and Christmas music is playing

everywhere you go. By December, the Christmas frenzy

is upon us in earnest. People are struggling into their

places of work despite the bitter weather, delayed or

cancelled trains and crowded buses – however, once

you are there, you are generally met by an oasis of

mince pies and hot chocolate, good-cheer and

Christmas carols. Diaries are booked ahead months in

advance for the a sheer avalanche of Christmas lunch-

es, parties, drinks and social functions that bring you

closer and closer and the big day itself.

My personal favorite has always been Christmas

Eve, I guess it is the fact that it is officially a “working

day,” however in the UK as in most places, not a lot of

Your personal E-therapist, is in the house!

The 10 Commandments of Self-Love

Send your questions to [email protected] or follow us on twitter @korennorton and a response will be provided

Can one really give love to someone else and enjoy

a happy, mutual relationship if they do not even love

themselves? Without self-love persons are insecure,

jealous, abusers, accepting of abuse and miserable. So

since charity begins at home, let’s do some introspec-

tion into what it takes to really appreciate who you are.

1. Know your value and worth. You are unique and spe-

cial and your value is unmeasurable. Remind yourself of

that fact every day and know that you deserve the very

best of what life has to offer.

2. Do your part to meet your own emotional needs

instead of waiting for someone to do it for you; spend

time every day doing things that bring you a sense of

satisfaction and that put a smile on your face.

3. Forgive yourself for past mistakes. No one is perfect

so stop holding yourself up to impossible standards of

perfection. Just let go of the past and endeavour to do

better for now and the future.

4. Stay away from relationships that make you feel

less than who you know yourself to be. If someone con-

sistently puts you down, calls you names, physically or

emotionally abuses you, love yourself enough to move

on.

5. Nurture your soul with spiritual songs, readings and

uplifting thoughts. Having a spiritual connection helps

to heal our weary souls after stress or trauma and gives

us the hope we need to be survivors.

6. Take care of your body. Love your body and nurture

it by eating well, engaging in physical activity and wear-

ing clothes that flatter the

outer part of you.

7. Spend time alone every

day. Learn to enjoy your

own company. Listen to

your thoughts and your

dreams and ensure your

living environment reflects

you and enhances your positive mood.

8. Do things to improve yourself. Self-love is loving

who you are right now and it can still include recogniz-

ing that you have the potential for more. You will be

proud of yourself when you meet certain accomplish-

ments.

9. Look in the mirror every day. It is important to look at

who you are and do not be afraid to face yourself. Face

the mirror and thank God for who you are. Say, “I am

beautiful inside and out”. “I am a gift”.

10. Do not engage in self-harming behaviours. Loving

yourself means staying away from drugs and other

harmful substances and dealing with fear and pain with-

out inflicting further pain on yourself. Be gentle with

you.

If you are used to being battered and beaten down

by others or you have treated yourself unkindly, then it

is time for a turnaround. Time to focus on loving you and

then you will be able to give true love to others.

Caribbean Christmas at Myett’sIt’s that time of year again to get out the

Guavaberry. Guavaberry also known as the rumberry

should not be confused with the guava. A guavaberry is

about the size of a cherry and can be yellow-orange or

dark red in color. These exotic berries are common to

the Caribbean and at Christmas time it’s pretty much a

staple. Guavaberry is used to make everything from

jams and liqueur to my personal favorite guavaberry

tarts.

On Sunday, 21 December –Myett’s are holding their

Annual Guavaberry Liqueur & Dessert Competition. This

gives you the chance to experience and showcase the

best guavaberry recipes in two categories: Guavaberry

Liqueurs and Guavaberry Dessert Recipes. The liqueur

category could be rum, wine or whatever drink you like

the best and desserts are everything from tarts, cakes

and puddings. There will be live steel pan music and

judging begins at 4pm. If you’re a guavaberry lover you

don’t want to miss this fruity event.

Maybe you’re a wine and art lover, if so then you’re

in luck, as Myett’s will be having their Arts Festival on

December 28th at 1pm. This monthly beach side festival

event has become a signature event for the restaurant –

where the beat goes on! The festival features local

artists and allows visitors and locals to sample some of

the exemplary art, exotic fruits and local fayre the BVI

has to offer. There will be steel pan vibes, brunch with

bottomless mimosas and live jazz with the acclaimed

Glenroy Charles from 7pm.

So come on down to Myett’s for a Caribbean

Christmas where the beat goes on and there is some-

thing for everyone. For details on entering the

Guavaberry Competition call 495-9649.

The Hundred Foot Journey, starring the

redoubtable Helen Mirren, is a confection of a movie

that crosses cultures and cuisine in equal measure. The

movie starts off in India where the Kadam family owns a

restaurant in Mumbai. The successful restaurant is

destroyed during a political riot and the family’s mother

is killed. Overwhelmed with grief, the Kadams under the

stewardship of Papa Kadam (Om Puri) relocate to

England, where they find neither the climate or the food

to their liking, and move onto the south of France.

Here Papa Kadam discovers a boarded up restau-

rant for sale in a picturesque village and unilaterally

declares that he has found what he is searching for. His

two sons, are skeptical but agree to settle in this small

town which already contains a restaurant renowned in

the region across the street – one hundred feet away to

be exact.

The competing La Saule Pleurer is a Michelin

starred restaurant owned by the widow, Madame

Mallory (Mirren). In search of a second star Madame

Mallory, is appalled to discover that an Indian restau-

rant, complete with a flashy sign and Bollywood music,

has opened up across the street.

Under the skilful cooking of one of Papa Kadam’s

two sons, Hassan (Mannish Dayal), Maison Mumbai

turns out excellent food and gradually wins over the

local residents, including the town’s beleaguered

mayor. The snooty Madame Mallory continues to con-

sider the Indian upstarts enemies of sorts and tries to

do what she can to undermine them. When one of her

racist chefs attempts to burn down the Maison Mumbai,

her sense of justice wins out and she slowly begins to

befriend the family, especially Hassan who has dis-

played promising talent at cooking both Indian and

French food.

Romance also begins to blossom in this new culi-

nary world. Papa Kadam woos Madame Mallory and

Hassan tries to win over one of her sous chefs,

Marguerite (Charlotte Le Bon), through tenderness and

her palate. But when Hassan becomes the head chef at

La Saule Pleurer, this romance begins to be undermined

by professional rivalry. With Hassan’s artistry, the

restaurant not only does well, but wins another

Michelin star. Virtually elevated to culinary rock star sta-

tus, Hassan goes to Paris, where he wins fame – but not

necessarily happiness – as the chef at one of the city’s

trendiest restaurants.

As with many of life’s lessons, it takes a while for

Hassan to come to terms with his fame and learn where

his true values and heart lies. Melding romance and

cuisine, The Hundred Foot Journey is a charming cine-

matic feast.

Lime ...“to hang around idly” or “to go out onthe town.”Source: The Dictionary of Virgin Islands EnglishCreole by the late educator and historian Lito Valls.The Limin’ Times brings you all the news aboutwhen and where to “lime” in the British VirginIslands.

As it has each season since the current seriesreboot premiered in 2005, Doctor Who delivers a specialholiday episode, premiering Stateside Thursday, Dec. 25,on BBC America.

And, as usual, the show’s home network, the BBC,is guarding plot details so closely that it’s starting to lookas if MI5, the British intelligence agency, is in charge ofpress and publicity at “the Beeb.”

Here’s what the BBC has confirmed: The title of thisyear’s yuletide special is Last Christmas, and accordingto a not-terribly-illuminating synopsis,we find the 12th Doctor (PeterCapaldi) and his companion, school-teacher Clara Oswald (JennaColeman), trapped on an arctic baseand menaced by sinister creatures ofsome kind. Luckily for them, they getsome much-needed assistance from acertain right jolly old elf, played byguest star Nick Frost (and let’s pausefor a second here to acknowledgethat, if you’re casting the role of Santa Claus, an actornamed “Nick Frost” is just about perfect).

Steven Moffat, the Doctor Who show runner, actual-ly set up the Christmas special in last month’s Season 8finale, entitled “Death in Heaven.” If you missed that,BBC America is airing it again immediately before the

Christmas special, but beware! Spoilers about that finalefollow in the very next paragraph.

That episode ended on a very downbeat note, asThe Doctor and Clara said their goodbyes at the end oftheir most recent adventure. The Doctor had set upevents to ensure that Clara and her lover, fellow teacherDanny Pink (Samuel Anderson), would have a happyending, but an unexpected plot twist seemed to indicateClara and Danny are permanently lost to each other.Before Clara can reveal this to the Doctor, he tells her he

has found Gallifrey, his long-losthome planet. It’s a well-meaning lie,but he thinks Clara wants him toleave so she and Danny can starttheir life together. Clara, meanwhile,pretends all is well so the Doctorwon’t feel compelled to stay with her.

After they part, The Doctor ispreparing to depart in his TARDISwhen Santa appears, insisting thatThe Doctor and Clara must heal their

relationship. Moffat teased fans that the Christmas spe-cial would resolve the future of these two characters, butthe London tabloid The Daily Mirror spoiled that sus-pense recently by reporting that Coleman has signed onfor at least part of Season 9. Fans will have to discoveradditional details on their own.
