Yes dear readers – it is absolutely sizzling summer heat here in Eleuthera at the moment. However with did have a few good showers which are much appreciated – but of course then the mosquitos are in full swing ! It is just the way that summers are here – and there are thunderstorms circling around as well…… Anyway – […]
La Bougainvillea
Just a couple of updates for you this week – about the foodstore and our garage sale…… Firstly the foodstore – Eleuthera Markets in downtown Governors Harbour. It has been a rip-roaring success and people from all over the island have flocked here to shop the great selection. Of course there are a few gaps in in what is being […]
Happy Easter and Happy Passover – whichever you may be celebrating. We are looking forward to a lovely long weekend here in Eleuthera – the Bahamas has both Good Friday and Easter Monday as public holidays so we are going to be enjoying that. Traditionally Bahamians have a beach party on Easter Monday and this is their first venture into […]
Hello dear friends – yes still talking about shopping here in Eleuthera this week. Last week I met a reader who introduced himself to me in Midway Costcutters in Savannah Sound. Pretty sure his name was Tom, a visitor here of many years standing and he told me how much he enjoyed the blog, we chatted about what we buy […]
Yes – it is great news that our restaurants are now opening back up in Eleuthera. People are just beginning to return to the island and it is lovely to see familiar faces again….. La Bougainvillea is open now – Bob and I went for lunch on Sunday to show our support and although it was quiet it was good […]
This week I just want to tell you how much we enjoyed our Sunday lunch at the Sunset Inn last Sunday. Mrs Jay Fernander quietly works away six days a week producing a lot of food for takeout as well as serving customers in the actual restaurant. It is freshly cooked for each order and is very well done. There […]
Catch up from Governors Harbour this week with news of the HACE fundraiser and other assorted bits and pieces…. So the HACE fundraiser was scheduled for a Monday night at La Bougainvillea – but unfortunately the weather was not kind – it was extremely windy and cool with a little rain in the air – so it was rescheduled for […]
And so dear readers this week I am telling you about a fundraiser on Monday 20th March in aid of HACE – which as you should know is the Health Association for Central Eleuthera. This is the organization that runs the free ambulance service here on the island so it is very important to support and help maintain this vital […]
This last week or so I have been doing some sorting out – you would have thought with moving house that it had all been done – but thinning out what we have and getting rid of things that we no longer need or want is a very cleansing experience. As we have family coming soon I decided to put […]
As we come in to February there is nothing much to report here in Eleuthera so you will be getting the minutiae of our life on a weekly basis – so be prepared to yawn and realize how exciting your own lives are in comparison….. Biggest news of the week is that I ate the very first waffle of my […]
