Edwin Yearwood was there, Rice was NOT

On the day of the Barbados Music Awards, I sighted Edwin Yearwood in the supermarket. He was in the Village Deli line engaged in conversation.

I don’t know what he was talking about as it was none of my business, but I do know that the Village Deli was out of rice to many people’s dismay.

   (MISSING.WANTED.LOVED.)

“Out of RICE?" That is like being out of macaroni pie!!! If you are running a food business in Barbados, serving cooked food to the masses, here are some things you should never run out of:

1. Macaroni pie
2. Rice
3. Chicken
4. Repeat 1 through 3, ad infinitum

If you find yourself running out of these things, by all means break it to the people gently or there may be a riot.
Needless to say, many people stupsed and some opted to wait the 15 minutes for the rice to cook.
Wait 15 minutes for rice to cook? I waited 2 seconds and bought something else. I hope everyone got their rice though. Within 15 minutes I was back in the parking lot. Bajans and rice on Sundays….it’s a bajan traditioooooon.
