A Cruise to Jamaica for Treasures

On one of Ms. Merl’s many cruises to Jamaica to get all her ingredients for her holiday Cakes, she also picked up authentic Jamaican fabric that had a beautiful print. Yes, she is not only a excellent baker, she is also a seamstress! 

For many years Ms. Merl has sewn everything from pajamas to suits to wedding dresses! All from just the love in her heart to give with her hands to loved ones. More than ever, getting a home-made item is so special. It brings back the old days when gift giving was about the effort, care, and time givien, and not a price tag. Food being so significant to family, cooking is becoming more and more popular again and an apron is a useful utensil!  Tradition never dies, and Jamaican Black Cake was built on tradition and is as alive to day in all Jamaican households as ever! Ms. Merl wishes to bring all those good old ways back to life in 2011 and beyond, by way of her two hands.

As a thank you to all her customers, she is hand making Jamaican Black Cake aprons with fabric she has purchased on one of her many cruises to Jamaica. Perfect for wearing during cooking curry goat in the kitchen or grilling jerk chicken on the barbecue! But this offer has a catch! Ms. Merl only has a few feet worth of fabric so they will be limited. Stay tuned for more.

Happy Holidays and have a blessed start to your week.
