There is a STRONG Jamaica/Dominica marriage connection. Since I was in the first Form at High School in 1966, I had a premonition that I would marry a Jamaican because my Science teacher was a beautiful Jamaican lady married to one of my distant cousins. It came to pass. I was born in Dominica and my wife was born in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, and raised in NYC since she was thirteen. We met at College in NYC and we have been happily married for forty-two (42) years. In my family, there are eleven (11) of us married to Jamaicans spanning fifty-two (52) years to more recently a few years. Surprisingly, my paternal grandfather was also Jamaican although my father did not know him. He was a doctor working in Dominica in the 1910s. We recently found out that he was from Clarendon. I taught French and Spanish at high school both in Dominica and in NYC. I studied methods of teaching French in Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe, and applied the methods to teaching both languages. I also speak French Kreole which I used when I was teaching Haitian kids at Middle School in NYC. Ackee is the BEST culinary delight you have in Jamaica. I LOVE IT!
I love the episodes of people living in different caribbean countries the most! It’s always interesting to compare the differences and similarities
So true
Believe it or not, just when she mentioned jackfruit, someone arrived at my gate with two jackfruits! I kid you not!!!
A lie!! Plz share...
@@Favouredandree 😁
🤣🤣🤣 That person must have brought the pig as well that flown across your gate.
@@--christine all I know is I am very grateful for these two jackfruits!

Another bubbly, adventurous, positive and articulate interviewee. She's so wise and .diplomatic 😀. I enjoyed this interview.
Thank you @KAD. Bless you.

MBHS to the world
Xavier great interview with Addia. Keep on giving viewers great episodes likes this. Best wishes to
Ms.Addia and her family.
Many thanks. Bless you too.
@@Addiamillerbernard You cannot be living in Guadeloupe for 18 years and call dombres, french for dumplings, stew peas?!?? Colombo is not curry? That is simply impossible!!
@@veri617 18 yrs ago dombres looked like stew Peas that needed to be à little thicker. If you listened carefully I did say Colombo is NOT curry, I even correct locals who think curry is in it.
Ingredients
1/4 cup white rice
1/4 cup cumin seeds
1/4 cup coriander seeds
1 tablespoon black mustard seeds, or yellow or brown
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 tablespoon fenugreek seeds
1 teaspoon whole cloves
1/4 cup ground turmeric
@@Addiamillerbernard It is the same recipe than the curry powders in the Carribean Islands. If colombo powder is not curry, jamaican's curry powder is not curry, neither are any of the curry's from the west indies. Tumeric/ curcuma and the spices are curry powders. What are you talking about??!?
Once again another superb interview 😀
I was entertained and informed at the same time.
Lol had fun sharing.

Addia was a delight. I can relate about her saying people using the “bad words “ thinking we all use them or every Jamaicans smoke you know what.😂😂😂😂. Another great interview Xavier..
sweetie come brush mi made me chuckle 🤭….I keep editing…. I guess Jamaicans won’t starve anywhere they go
So true
Same reaction from some Japanese people. They think it's regular conversation. Lol
Awesome Interview, lively she was fun to listen to .
wonderful lady !! God bless you both !
Hey she's from my parish, St. Thomas to the world 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇧🇧🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏🙏🙏
I enjoy watching and learning about other Caribbean countries from England. I grew up in Jamaica and migrated 20 years ago. Here is where I’m slowly discovering that I know very little about the land of my birth much less other countries 😔
I’m Guadeloupeen/Dominican living in Florida, hoping to move back soon. I have a home in Baie-Mahault.
Another great episode
Hey Addia my friend. Good to see you here. Bravo
When are you coming to Gwada?
@@Addiamillerbernard I’m thinking about it. Maybe for Noel
That is one of my dream locations
Like ackee in Burkina Faso. They used it to play ball.
Another interesting interview
my sister ❤
She is the best 👌
True success, awesome.
Tell me about it Addia...A patty shop is the first place I went to when I was home last time. It will always be my first run to place..missing those patties.
Was trying to get you or Stasha to do the interview with me but no Luck. Yu gud?
I should swing by your workplace next week
Raaaaayyy A ST Thomas mi com from.
A so it guh!
That wedding tradition is funny! Ppl just show up🤣🤣. My Haitian friend said the same thing happens there. I guess is like nine nights in Jamaica...ppl show up for drinks and food and music and gone home🤣.
I am a subscriber.
What attracts some West Indians of the English Caribbean to the French West Indies?
French carribean speak creole
I've had the opportunity to go to Guadeloupe twice and I loved it BUT she's right! They definitely don't season like us 👀😅
The PBS show Death in Paradise filmed there and makes me want to visit too.
Love that series. The fictive town is actually à réal town called Deshaie, quiet but great for surfing .
Yep! Just mentioned that, & here it is in the comments!!
Yes, I have heard of AFS.
we need more MoBay ppl on this show
Who knows *Navel* aka *Nable* mango?
You must describe it if you claim to know it🙂 Winner will be invited to pick their own *Nabel* at #BigMountain.
En Dan's lot Soleil means in the next rise
I miss the tang of number 11
Big foot mango? What is that?
Mango with a Bigfoot. You dont know.
Is she a joke?! Dumbres are not the peas but the spinners, and that is not all we eat all day!! Our french is similar to her Jamaican English, and Columbo is curry but made differently!! I do not believe she lives there, she might have a little french but she does not live there, impossible!!
I just happen to work at à school where cooking is taught so you can tell the CHEFS that curry is colombo
@@Addiamillerbernard Curry powders all over the Caribbean islands are made of the same ingredients, Colombo curry powder is not an exception!!
Am I the only one here??
I am here.
Blouse & skirt.
Guadeloupeans eat rice with their stewed peas without the dumplings or spinners called dombrés, in it. Rice and peas is a staple dish just like in all the Caribbean islands!! What is she talking about?!
Belinda please show me where in Guadeloupe they serve Dombres with White rice. Please dont mix up stewed Peas served with rice and the dish 'Dombres'
@@Addiamillerbernard stew peas is not dombre. Dombre is dumpling.
Sandra levy run come.
I really love her interview..it is natural and nothing false...keep it up.
@@jackiebogle7045 Well it is false, she does not know the name of the food, after 18 years!! Dombres are not stewed peas without rice!! She does not know what she is actually talking about!
@@veri617 you hurt really bad ova the food...the lady explain herself that she never said it was stew peas, she was just making a comparison....you need to let go....
@@dixonsworld2506 well you need to let go, its been over a month now
@@veri617 You're all over the comment section crying "dOmBrÉéÉéÉé!!!", as if she personally attacked you. So really YOU need to let go. Yes, it's been 18 years, she explained herself, maybe mispoke, you don't like it...move on and let it go!
There culture is little Binni
What does that mean?
This is a troll! It is as if someone had said that they were living in Jamaica for 20 years, Jamaicans spoke second class English, and that Ackee was a pineapple!! Total nonsense and a lie!! I do not like the disrespect!!
Why? What's wrong?
@@juicyfruit8640some people just like to be offended..
She sounds like a troll, very sarcastic. I do not believe that she actually lives there. In 18 years, she does not know the meals of Guadeloupe?!?! Dombrés are not peas, they are the spinners that come with many different sauces, such as stewed peas, jumbo shrimps, called gambas, lobster, conk called lambi, octopus called chatrou, crab....and many more...She is trolling 😏
@Ve Ri it's so unfortunate that you consider me a troll, the meal is called Dombres, and it has the spinners and all you mentioned. What's your favourite guadeloupeen meal?
@@Addiamillerbernard You cannot come publickly and mislabelled your 'host country' food!! It is very insulting!! Personally I love Guadeloupean staples, but since you mistake dumplings and peas, well....
@@veri617 no beefs dear, let's say it was à slip of the tongue...be at peace in the Lord , I Cook à mean Dombres, let's have some together when next you visit,ok! Bless you.
@@Addiamillerbernard Just be careful when speaking about foreingn countries, what you say about them has to actually be accurate. Somebody would have done the same with Jamaican dishes, they would have been yelled and screamed at by the crowd. Guadeloupe is not known, so people do not react, that is why It is extremely important to give the right information.
@@veri617 we seem to be getting along real well. I'd have to listen again to actually see where blunder was made. Though not offended, you shouldn't be Quick to judge persons and call them names. We are all humans and some times we make mistakes . The offer still stands for à plate of Dombres.
