We call the fritters' ''fish cakes" and you make yours EXACTLY how I make mine...Thing is I add some baking powder to it, it makes it come out fluffy and soft and I always season the flour mixture.. Yuh have a sweet hand!
8:41: Frontals are challenging for me. I prefer a well constructed closure. Pop on and go. I can’t be bothered to pull out a hair dryer each install morning (I don’t sleep in my units) 11:15: Tidy. I whip out my spray cleaner and give the counters a quick wipe up and after dinner, Viola,, the kitchen is put back together in minutes
Agreed. COVID was such a misfortune but so much positive came out of this well deserved extra time. It made way for lots of introspection and new direction. Love you always O’ | another great vlog ❤️
Octavia B people like me who don’t like the whole glue deal with these lace wigs just ad an elastic band on the inside of the wig, and it makes it tight without glue. Hard to explain but there’s tons of video tutorials. Keep up the great videos 👍🏽
Yesss for the fritters! I LITERALLY text my friend to make ackee, callalo, and fritters or festival for the weekend! Looks so good! Love your dedication!
Who else says *FLITTERS!* loll 😄 I just love that there's always cooking segments in your vlogs! Happy Sunday fam 💕 Tavi thanks for keeping us sane during these crazy times🤗💕

I clicked so fast😣 saltfish fritters are one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast. I like to put baking powder and scotch bonnet pepper in mine🙈💛💛
Hey sis! Quick question. Do you wear a full face in the summer? I literally go fresh face all summer cuz I just figure I’ll sweat profusely and be wiping makeup off my forehead 😂😂😂 I wonder if it’s possible 🤔
- the jeans in the beginning 😍 I’m trying to stay away from red meat but wow I want to try the beef & broccoli 🥺 lol .. and you gotta remember to show us cause I have some old bundles to flex 😂 thanks for keeping me company during this insomnia, until next time, haha ❤️❤️❤️
Yo mi never watch di video mi just like it from jump cuz mi support unu regardless. Big up unu self my girl ❤️ Oh and good job on the saltfish fritters 😋 you could add a likkle baking powder to the flour and make it rest for a few mins so it could rise and fluff out
@@OctaviaB Def did but in NYC many people indulge in Caribbean cuisine and culture without being Jamaican themselves. The fritters looked amazing! I used to love Golden Krust one but its way too salty now.

Please don't take things for granted when you return to work. Still wear your mask and try to keep your distance.
Stay safe my dear.❤

Octavia B ok ok, i missed it!
Thank you so much. I will definitely try these
Love LOVE LOVE THIS CHANNEL🥰
Thank you so much for watching ❤️
Love when you cook
Your beef stew looks really good! Can this be make this in a regular big pot or must it be made in a crockpot?
Big pot is fine , just let it simmer for a while
Thought of you today as I made some rice and peas. Have a good first day back... 🤗
Yay !!!
I clicked so fast😣 saltfish fritters are one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast. I like to put baking powder and scotch bonnet pepper in mine🙈💛💛
I added scotch bonnet but didn’t have baking powder 🥺
@@OctaviaB I find baking powder let's it soak up too much oil so I do it without
What braid pattern did you use?
Just straight back :)
Can't wait to see you install your sew in video! Do you leave alot of leave out? Your hair looks so natural.
Hey sis! Quick question. Do you wear a full face in the summer? I literally go fresh face all summer cuz I just figure I’ll sweat profusely and be wiping makeup off my forehead 😂😂😂 I wonder if it’s possible 🤔
I definitely still wear make up in the summer I just use less of it. I don’t sweat a lot though so I’ll be good
Put a damp paper towel under the cutting board for the slipping.
Oh good tip ! ❤️
. . . yep, that or a kitchen towel.
I’m influenced to make stew beef now lol
Hahaha so good !
Where did you get the vanity mirror?
Ikea :)
Octavia B Thanks

Hey Octavia!! Love you girl!! ♥💯
I love how your curls always come out on your sew ins. Mine always come out backwards 😂
Lol I honestly don’t know how they always look like this because I cannot curl here for nothing
What is the name of the opening song? Soothing😉
Come through skin🙌🙌
What fish is used to make salt fish?
Salt fish is what it’s called
Are you a Yardie? I picked up on an accent in some of your videos. Great recipe
Yass , the Saltfish fritter didn’t give it away ?
@@OctaviaB Def did but in NYC many people indulge in Caribbean cuisine and culture without being Jamaican themselves. The fritters looked amazing! I used to love Golden Krust one but its way too salty now.
Not to be rude but do you not wash your veggies before chopping them up? Wishing you a safe return to work.
I did wash them - at the point you saw me cooking I was already home etcccc
It cold deh still?
Yeah man ! Mi nuh know wha gwaan up here
Yes TH-camr full time is not for everyone.
Fry one first ? Lol girl I’m not the patient. I go all in
Yayyyyyy💃🏽💃🏽❤️
Girl sew an elastic band to the back of the wig and you’ll never have to use glue again. I did and I’ve never looked back
Good idea
Master chef 😋
Mi a try 😩
I went to a Jamaican breakfast/brunch once and ppl thought the ackee was scrambled eggs lol
😅😪
Oh goodness haha
