I have a big heart, and I care.In today's episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Chef Todd Manley, the founder and CEO of Mutiny Island Vodka. Chef Todd's journey from culinary innovator to environmental advocate is a testament to the transformative power of creativity and passion. His unique venture is not just about producing vodka; it's about leveraging the underutilized superfood, breadfruit, to drive significant social and environmental change.Breadfruit, a fruit native to Oceania and Polynesia, has been criminally underutilized despite its vast potential. Chef Todd discovered its benefits while searching for an ingredient to create the world's first island vodka. This journey began in 2007, shelved temporarily, but later resurrected in the aftermath of hurricanes Irma and Maria, which left the Virgin Islands without power for months. Chef Todd and his business partner experimented with breadfruit, leading to the creation of a unique breadfruit ethanol. This innovation laid the foundation for Mutiny Island Vodka.What makes breadfruit remarkable is its ability to sequester carbon dioxide and provide food security. As Chef Todd explained, “By using breadfruit products, we incentivize the planting of breadfruit trees, which sequester hundreds of tons of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and produce abundant food.” This aligns perfectly with the mission of Mutiny Island Vodka: to create jobs, feed people, and better the environment.Beyond vodka, breadfruit's versatility extends to various food products, such as flour, hummus, and even gluten-free cheesecake. Chef Todd's vision goes beyond just making vodka; he aims to make breadfruit a staple in combating global hunger and environmental degradation. “One breadfruit tree will feed a family of four for life if they have nothing else to eat,” Chef Todd highlighted, emphasizing its potential to address food security.Today, Chef Todd is raising capital on Start Engine through regulated investment crowdfunding. You can invest.Chef Todd's story is a compelling blend of innovation, resilience, and a commitment to making a difference. His work with breadfruit is not just a business venture but a movement towards a sustainable and equitable future. Through Mutiny Island Vodka, Chef Todd is indeed leveraging the power of breadfruit to change the world, one tree at a time.tl;dr:1. Introduction to Chef Todd Manley and Breadfruit Vodka: Chef Todd Manley, involved with Mutiny Island Vodka, introduces the project, which aims to create dramatic social and environmental impacts by using an underutilized fruit called breadfruit to make island vodka.2. Discovery and Development of Breadfruit Vodka: Chef Todd shares how he came across breadfruit, initially considering it for his restaurant menu. The idea evolved after hurricanes hit his region, leading him and his business partner to experiment with breadfruit, eventually creating vodka from it.3. Breadfruit's Versatility and Environmental Benefits: Breadfruit not only provides food security due to its superfood qualities but also sequesters significant amounts of CO2. It's being used for various products, including hummus, flour, and Goya brand tostones, endorsed for its numerous health and environmental benefits.4. Caring as a Superpower: Chef Todd highlights his superpower of caring, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and addressing community needs. He shares a personal story about mentoring an employee, pushing her to realize her potential, which later resulted in significant career success for her.5. Community Investment and Future Potential of Breadfruit Products: Chef Todd explains the benefits of using Regulation Crowdfunding to raise awareness and capital. He invites the community to learn more about their project on StartEngine and connect via Instagram, aiming to turn everyone into breadfruit advocates and boost sustainable agricultural practices.How to Develop Caring As a SuperpowerChef Todd Manley's superpower is his profound capacity to care deeply about people, the environment, and innovative solutions to problems. His empathy and compassion drive his actions and decisions, allowing him to connect diverse ideas and achieve meaningful, win-win outcomes for the community and the world.One story that illustrates Chef Todd's superpower is his exploration of using breadfruit as a sustainable agricultural product. After two hurricanes devastated the Virgin Islands, he and his business partner experimented with breadfruit to create the world's first island vodka. This initiative not only provided a unique product but also promoted environmental sustainability and food security by incentivizing the planting of breadfruit trees. As Chef Todd explained, "By using breadfruit products, we incentivize the planting of breadfruit trees, which sequester hundreds of tons of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and produce abundant food."To develop and strengthen your own caring superpower, Chef Todd suggests a few actionable steps:1. Pay Attention: Be mindful of your surroundings and the people around you. Notice problems, big or small, and think about how you can help.2. Be Creative: Use your creativity to connect diverse ideas and find innovative solutions to problems.3. Empower Others: Recognize the talents in others and help them harness those talents, even if they don't realize their potential initially.4. Embrace Learning: Keep learning from various fields and experiences. The more you know, the better you can connect the dots and make a positive impact.5. Take Action: When you see an opportunity to help, take it. Even small actions can lead to significant changes over time.By following Chef Todd Manley's example and advice, you can make caring a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileChef Todd Manley (he/him):Founder / CEO, Mutiny Island VodkaAbout Mutiny Island Vodka: Mutiny Island Vodka is the world's first award-winning Island Vodka handcrafted from the superfood breadfruit. By using breadfruit as our substrate, we incentivize the planting of breadfruit trees to create food security, economy and benefit the environment by producing a world-class spirit. We get our name from the historic Mutiny on the Bounty. The corporation that owns Mutiny Island Vodka is Twin City Island Spirits, located in the USVI. The 20,000 sq. ft. distillery gets its electricity via solar and has a commitment to zero waste production.Website: mutinyislandvodka.comCompany Facebook Page: fb.com/MutinyIslandVodka/Other URL: startengine.com/offering/mutinyislandvodkaBiographical Information: Todd Allen Manley • CEO & Board MemberBefore moving to his new home of the U.S. Virgin Islands, Todd ran multiple restaurants with average revenues of $1.4M per year per each restaurant. He has been honored to receive numerous awards, from "Chef of the Year" to multiple recognitions of his restaurants as the "best" in several categories, and nominated for an Elby Award in 2012 as a restaurant visionary. He has largely been self-employed his entire life, loving the challenge of taking ideas out of thin air and turning them into tangible, profitable realizations. He is a graduate and former graduate school student of Virginia Commonwealth University.Since making the USVI his home, he has opened 5 successful businesses in a short four years, continually reinvesting in Christiansted and the USVI, effectively pulling up the town by reinvigorating interest in Christiansted during an economically gloomy period of time. In 2015, the community honored him through the Chamber of Commerce, awarding him "Business Man of the Year.” The same year he received the U.S. Congressional Award for contributions to community and betterment of society for his achievements and helping the community of St. Croix. His commitment to bettering the global community through his work with breadfruit and the breadfruit community resulted in him being honored at the Global Breadfruit Summit in Hawaii in 2018 and 2022 for contributions to the community and innovation. Mutiny Island Vodka also received an endorsement from a charity, Trees That Feed Foundation, for using breadfruit as a substrate, incentivizing the planting of breadfruit trees. Mutiny Island Vodka was also featured in an article in Forbes.When he has free time, he can be found with his wife from Dominica, playing a guitar, scuba diving, or on a beach!

Sharing Insights Podcast: Exploring Permaculture, Homesteads, & Community in Costa Rica
In today's episode, we get the privilege of visiting with not one but two leaders in the regenerative space, Jean Pullen & Alan Cacao. Through their project Regenerate Your Reality, Jean & Alan have been tirelessly promoting permaculture education, seed propagation, food sovereignty, & community-building projects throughout the country. Regenerate Your Reality is a permaculture, agroforestry, and education project working to bring sovereignty and happiness to our communities. It's their mission to restore the relationship between humans and the earth to build a regenerative present. They start the conversation by describing their work educating people at their biodiversity sanctuary in the mountains, near Platanillo, up the hill from Dominical. If you schedule a visit to their 1-hectare food forest, you'll be welcomed to a tour of more than 300 species of food they have planted there. All of which is a living seed bank.We discuss their partnerships with Kiss the Ground & Jungle Project and how they've been empowering local farmers with a regenerative livelihood, growing syntropic food forests with a focus on the abundantly producing breadfruit tree. With the help of Earth University, INA (Costa Rica's National Institute for Learning), and Kiss the Ground, these two life advocates and the rest of their friends at The Jungle Project provide ongoing, multi-year technical assistance to small-scale farmers on a variety of organic regenerative practices. The organization's mission is Trees, Training & Trade. The farming families learn to restore and maintain the ecological health of their farmland in ways that improve their nutrition and their income. This crew is actively seeding a regenerative nation. As Alan put it, connecting with the earth is our first medicine and one worth practicing daily. Participating in a world where the color green is ever out your window, and the sounds of birds and insects are perpetually punctuating the periphery of your awareness - for me, that's a life I want to live. It's the one I want to participate in preserving and passing on to my grandchildren. I loved the moment when all three of us were relating to the transformative power we're gifted with when we embody the experience of volunteering or interning at a permaculture center. You become a product of that project. It changes your life forever. I was impressed to learn that the Jungle Project is rewarding partner farms by buying 80% of the fruit they produce. Their mission is to substitute grains in people's diets with breadfruit. Changing people's habits can be a long road, but it doesn't stop them from walking it. After the interview, I had the pleasure of trying Alan's handmade breadfruit tortillas with the abundant garden salad we all shared. The tortillas were delicious and had a very agreeable texture! I think they have a shot. If you'd like to learn more from Jean and Alan, check out Regenerate Your Reality's website and the permaculture webinars they've created. You can find Jean's book there, as well. That's what I've got for you this time. If you like the episode, pass it on to a friend.

Starting from an idea in 2019, Breadfruit chips have been shipped to over 45 states in the United States less than two years later developing the first trade route and commercial operation for the fruit between Colorado and Jamaica.What you will learn from this episode: That the breadfruit plant is described as a tropical potato that grows on a tree instead of in the ground, it is in the mulberry family (that was surprising to learn) and it is a gluten-free, grain-free, and low glycemic superfood that is a good alternative to certain other starches and grain-based products The Jus Chill company endeavors to equally center People, Planet, and Profits in its operations and seek to provide financial value back to producers at the base of the value chain and ensure that its operations are not harmful to the planet while ensuring that the company becomes profitable and sustainable. Jus Chill is currently bootstrapping without venture or impact investment backing until it can find the right investors that are fully aligned with its 3 P (People, Planet and Profit) focus. Jus Chill currently has two major product lines breadfruit chips and breadfruit pancake mix and is currently developing other product lines To order Jus Chill products visit 123juschill.com to order or on Amazon as the company strives to get into distribution into major retail stores across the US.Social Media: Instagram: iifoods_juschill Facebook: iifoodsThanks for joining us for another episode of the WTF podcast.

Starting from an idea in 2019, Breadfruit chips have been shipped to over 45 states in the United States less than two years later developing the first trade route and commercial operation for the fruit between Colorado and Jamaica. What you will learn from this episode: That the breadfruit plant is described as a tropical potato that grows on a tree instead of in the ground, it is in the mulberry family (that was surprising to learn) and it is a gluten-free, grain-free, and low glycemic superfood that is a good alternative to certain other starches and grain-based products The Jus Chill company endeavors to equally center People, Planet, and Profits in its operations and seek to provide financial value back to producers at the base of the value chain and ensure that its operations are not harmful to the planet while ensuring that the company becomes profitable and sustainable. Jus Chill is currently bootstrapping without venture or impact investment backing until it can find the right investors that are fully aligned with its 3 P (People, Planet and Profit) focus. Jus Chill currently has two major product lines breadfruit chips and breadfruit pancake mix and is currently developing other product lines To order Jus Chill products visit 123juschill.com to order or on Amazon as the company strives to get into distribution into major retail stores across the US.

It is one of the most remote ancient sites in the world. Situated on the isolated Micronesian island of Kosrae are the ruins of an ancient religious centre called Menka, also known as the Village of the Breadfruit Goddess. From temples to monumental statues to 'the painted cave,' Menka was an incredibly important site for Kosrae's ancient communities. Many mysteries, however, still abound.To talk through what we know about Menka and its archaeology, we're joined once again by Dr. Felicia Beardsley, a Professor at the University of La Verne. Felicia is an expert on the archaeology of Micronesia and featured on a previous Ancients podcast all about Nan Madol, 'Venice of the Pacific': https://podfollow.com/the-ancients/episode/bcae15d73136dac4ace88c48db17dcf43c16cfb5/view See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Breadfruit could help us weather the storm of climate change. The team hears how the tropical fruit is tough enough to survive Earth's warming temperatures and could even replace staple crops like wheat in the future. The team finds out why children living below the poverty line experience a raft of health issues, as new research examines the mechanisms that are at play. They also explore a good old fashioned space mystery, after strange signals have been detected from an unknown object at the centre of our galaxy. And that's not the only exciting space news - they also discuss Blue Origin's latest passenger flight to space, featuring Star Trek legend William Shatner. They also share deepfake audio of Donald Trump, showcasing how accurate the technology has become, and why we should be concerned. And they share a fascinating new theory about how sea cucumbers are able to survive in extreme environments. On the pod are Rowan Hooper, Penny Sarchet, Michael Le Page, Jason Murugesu and Chelsea Whyte. To read about these stories and much more, subscribe at newscientist.com/podcasts.

Curated News Unconventional Wisdom: 8 Revolutionary Ideas for Your Garden from Thomas Rainer - Gardenista "When you meet landscape architect Thomas Rainer he comes across as a pleasant, mild-mannered fellow… not at all the type to be traveling around the world, as he does, spouting revolutionary ideas calculated to upend years and years of conventional gardening wisdom. As he writes in his preface to Planting in a Post-Wild World, the 2015 book he wrote with Claudia West, his ideas come from his time as a boy in suburban Birmingham, Alabama, where he spent countless happy hours roaming a stretch of indigenous Piedmont forest near his home." This article reveals a list of Thomas's dos and don'ts for growing an earth-friendly garden that he says produces better results with less work. Here's a high-level overview - be sure to read the article for the full scoop. 1. Amending the Soil: Don't 2. Double Digging: Don't 3. Soil Testing: Do 4. Mulching: Don't 5. Planting Cover Crops: Do 6. Curbside Planting: Do 7. Buying A Lot of Plants: Do 8. Experimenting and Having Fun: Do Alright, that's it for today's gardening news.

Important Events 1789 Today is the anniversary of the death of the British botanist David Nelson. David served as the botanist on Captain Cook's third South Seas trip; William Bligh was the Sailing Master. After gathering many new specimens, David spent the bulk of his time caring for over 500 breadfruit plants that Bligh was transporting to the West Indies. Breadfruit is a reference to the texture of the cooked fruit, which is similar to freshly baked bread. And, breadfruit tastes like potato. A likable fellow, David had traveled on another expedition with Captain Charles Clerke of the ship Discovery, who said David was "one of the quietest fellows in nature." As you might recall, the Captain Cook expedition suffered a mutiny on April 28, 1789. For his protection, David was kept below deck and under guard. David decided to go with William Bligh and his followers to Timor. The 3,500-mile voyage was grueling, and David died on this day, just 54 days after the mutiny. David's death was a blow to Bligh and his crew. To honor this mild man of botany, Bligh conferred full naval honors for his funeral service. Three years later, Captain Bligh visited Tasmania. He named "Nelson's Hill," the highest point on the island, in David's honor. Today Mount Nelson is the Hobart location of Tasmania University. 1822 Today is the birthday of the Austrian botanist and monk Gregor Mendel. Gregor discovered the basic principles of heredity through his experiments with peas in his garden at the Augustinian monastery that he lived in at Brno ("BURR-no") in the Czech Republic. Or, as I like to tell the kids, Gregor learned about heredity when he gave peas a chance. (Sorry, couldn't resist!) During a seven-year period in the mid-1800s, Gregor grew nearly 30,000 pea plants, and he took note of everything: their height and shape and color. And, his work resulted in what we now know as the Laws of Heredity, and to this day, most kids study this in school. And it was Gregor who came up with all of the genetic terms and terminology that we still use today, like dominant and recessive genes. 1960 On this day, the Chicago Tribune ran an article about the daylily, saying that they were "tops" in usefulness. Here are some highlights: "Because they combine exquisite charm with extreme hardiness, daylilies are without doubt nature's most useful flower... Their usefulness derives from their ability to thrive lustily under virtually any circumstances, which makes them particularly adaptable to so-called problem areas where the gardener may have experienced difficulty growing other flowers. For the weekend-gardener with a large tract to work, daylilies are the answer for far corners which ...never [get attended] to. The abundant foliage [of the daylily] will tend to keep the areas free from weeds, too." 1974 On this day, the IRA murdered Brian Shaw. Brian was just 21 years old when he was killed. A former soldier, Brian, had become a truck driver and had just married a girl from Belfast. Two weeks after their wedding, Brian disappeared when he went to pay the florist bill for flowers they had used at his wedding. And poignantly, the bill was still in his pocket when his body was found. 1977 Today is the anniversary of the death of the garden writer Katharine White. Now, Katharine was married to Andy - but most of us probably know him as E.B. White, the author of three beloved children's books, Stuart Little (1945), Charlotte's Web (1952), and The Trumpet of the Swan (1970). In the early 1930s, Katharine and Andy bought a farmhouse in North Brooklin, Maine. By the end of the decade, they left their place in New York for good and moved to the farmhouse permanently. It was Katharine White who once wrote: "From December to March, there are for many of us three gardens - the garden outdoors, the garden of pots and bowls in the house, and the garden of the mind's eye." Katharine began writing garden pieces for The New Yorker in 1958. In 1979, Katharine's book Onward and Upward in the Garden was edited and published posthumously by her husband, Andy. Gardeners especially enjoy Andy's tenderly written preface to his gardener wife. Anatole Broyard gushed about Katharine's book in his review saying, "It is itself a bouquet; the final blooming of an extraordinary sensibility." Now, Katharine carried on a marvelous correspondence with another garden writer: Elizabeth Lawrence. And, their letters convey a warmth and curiosity that I thought you would find delightful: July 2, 1958 [Katharine to Elizabeth] Dear Miss Lawrence, I am in New York for the moment, so it was on my desk here at The New Yorker that I found today your book, "The Little Bulbs"... Already I have dipped into it with delight. I shall carry it back with me to Maine next week and study it and consult it ... for years... The varieties [of bulbs] I have established ...are the obvious ones I'm afraid: the two colors of scylla, snowdrops, snowflakes, crocuses, white and blue grape hyacinths, and among the small tulips only Clusiana and Kaufmanniana. Your book will help me to expand, I hope… June 15, 1959 Dear Elizabeth, Here I am back again with a question, in spite of my promises. ...Do you know the address of Jan de Graaff, and does de Graaff bring out a catalog? I have been studying the lily offerings for the autumn of this year and every one of them, both in specialists' catalogs and in those of the big nurseries, of course, brags of lilies from the great de Graaff. P.S. It is 48 degrees here today and has been this for 48 hours. Discouraging. (Note the date!) October 8, 1959 Dear Elizabeth, Speaking of gourds, for the first time, my small decorative gourds did not mature in time for me to wax and polish them while watching the World Series. I am a baseball fan; I hate to confess — and I have loved baseball since I was a child. November 1959 Friday morning Dear Katharine, I don't know anything about modern flowers that have lost their fragrance. I think some hybrid roses are as sweet as old ones. At the fall flower show, I was intoxicated by the scent of one flower of Sutter's Gold... How in the world do you accomplish all you do? I have been interrupted five times since I came to my desk an hour ago, the last by a friend who wouldn't take the plants I offered on a day I was in the garden and would like to have them right now. I told her to come on. If she doesn't, she will choose a still worse time. Aren't those letters magnificent? You can read all of Katharine and Elizabeth's letters in detail in a wonderful book called Two Gardeners: Katharine S. White and Elizabeth Lawrence--A Friendship in Letters by Emily Herring Wilson. After Katharine died, her husband Andy sent a little verse he had written to their close friends and family. It said simply: To all who loved my lovely wife. To all who spoke their sorrow, I send this printed card of thanks so l can face tomorrow. I'd hoped to write a full reply To each, to say "I love you." But I'll reveal the sticky truth: There's just too many of you. Unearthed Words Here are some inspiring verses that highlight the Garden as a sanctuary, a holy place to heal, and be refreshed. God made a beauteous garden With lovely flowers strown, But one straight, narrow pathway That was not overgrown. And to this beauteous garden He brought mankind to live, And said "To you, my children, These lovely flowers I give. Prune ye my vines and fig trees, With care my flowers tend, But keep the pathway open Your home is at the end. ― Robert Frost, American poet, God's Garden If words are seeds, let flowers grow from your mouth, not weeds. If hearts are gardens, plant those flowers in the chest of the ones who exist around you. — R.H. Swaney, American poet For flowers that bloom about our feet; For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet; For song of bird, and hum and bee; For all things fair we hear or see; Father in heaven, we thank Thee! — Ralph Waldo Emerson, American essayist and poet Grow That Garden Library Shrubs by Andy McIndoe ("MAC-IN-doe") This book came out in February of 2019, and the subtitle is Discover the Perfect Plant for Every Place in Your Garden. Gardens Illustrated said this about Andy's book, "McIndoe is a devoted and knowledgeable ambassador for shrubs…His advice is clear, practical, and honest: the sort of counsel every gardener needs. The book will be an invaluable addition not only to the bookcases of gardeners but also those of garden designers seeking to broaden their plant palette." This is one of my favorite books on shrubs, and it's 337 pages of fabulous photos and detailed shrub profiles - all shared with today's gardener in mind. You can get a copy of Shrubs by Andy McIndoe and support the show, using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $14. Today's Botanic Spark After researching Katharine White, I discovered some touching correspondence that occurred between her husband, Andy, (the author of Stuart Little and Charlotte's Web), and her friend and fellow garden writer Elizabeth Lawrence. In July 1979, Elizabeth wrote to Andy about Katharine's book (after Katharine died): Dear Andy, Thank you for having the publisher send me Onward and Upward (it really is). I have been re-reading and re-reading ever since, with great pleasure and great sorrow. I can't bear not [being] able to tell Katharine what a wonderful book [she wrote]… [I am writing] to ask for permission to quote a paragraph from a letter you wrote to me [a while ago. You wrote:] "Katharine just spent three days in bed, in pain, caused by aback injury brought on by leaning far out over a flower bed to pick one spring bloom— the daffodil Supreme. It seems a heavy price to pay for one small flower. But when she is in her garden, she is always out of control. I do not look for any change, despite her promises." I am not sure about your [species], whether it is the daffodil supreme, or the daffodil Supreme, Rijnveld, 1947, 3a. But I don't think it likely that any Observer will know the difference. I thought the paragraph fits in with your loving introduction [to Onward and Upward in the Garden]. [...] I am having a miserable time trying to say something worthy of the book in the space allotted to me. Aff, Elizabeth On March 24, 1980, Andy concluded a letter back to Elizabeth with these words: Tired snow still lies about, here and there, in the brownfields, and my house will never look the same again since the death of the big elm that overhung it. Nevertheless, I manfully planted (as a replacement) a young elm. It is all of five-and-a-half feet high. By Katharine's grave, I planted an oak. This is its second winter in the cemetery, her third. Yrs, Andy Five years later, Andy died at home in Maine. He is buried next to Katharine in the Brooklin Cemetery.

Erline, a seamstress from St. Vincent, discusses the importance of clothes in her life: the personal associations with clothes. As a child living in a country where most parents couldn't afford to buy dolls, she instead dressed up a stick from the Breadfruit tree and called it "breadfruit baby". It would become real. Clothes do that: they make certain realities apparant and they participate in constructing meaning. She thinks this is particularly true with uniforms.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/talkpopc)

Saturday morning cartoons were the best! Who among us doesn’t get a serious case of nostalgia overload when we remember eating breakfast and watching the new episode of EXO Squad, Savage Dragon or Skeleton Warriors? These are the shows that helped defined many of our childhoods, and even when they disappeared due to FCC regulations, we still remember them warmly. Today we discuss why we think some of the newer cartoon shows are (to put it bluntly) kinda trash, and what we loved about our old-school cartoons.

The World Cup is over and France came out on top in a stunning 4-2 victory over Croatia, winning a jaw-dropping $38M in cash prizes and the World Cup trophy, estimated to be worth about $20M. Croatia didn’t do too shabby either, walking away with a respectable $28M in cash. That got me to thinking, what would happen if every team who played (even the ones who didn’t win) walked away with a trophy and equal prize money? In this episode, we discuss what we think of participation trophies. We also ask the question, “What would life be like if everyone won a prize just for showing up?” CONTACT: Twitter: @breadfruitshow & @breadfruitace Anchor: https://anchor.fm/breadfruitjuice Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/breadfruit-juice Email: breadfruitjuice@gmail.com SOURCES: https://writetheworld.com/groups/1/shared/61012/version/118148 https://www.theodysseyonline.com/5-reasons-participation-trophies-shouldnt-be https://simplegrenadiancooking.wordpress.com/2016/10/24/grenadian-pelau/ htt --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/breadfruitjuice/support
