#fbf to Suga’s Christmas Cake from Sweet Obsession!

No Christmas Fruit Cake comes close to my Mother’s or Aunty Mads’. With that said, I can be very critical about them. So I pondered for days what I was going to do to keep the tradition alive, especially since I was staying in Jamaica all season. I felt like I needed not 1 but 2 cakes!

I stumbled across a friend’s Instagram page, Sweet Obsession where it looked good and the price was right.

● 1 1/2lbs – $1500JMD

● 2lbs – $2400JMD

● 3lbs – $3500JMD

Of course I had to do a tasting first, explaining that I don’t like it too fruity but I like it with lots of rum.

The quality of the tasting was alright. It had my rum content but the texture needed to be a bit softer. So I passed that information along and made my order with the assurance that adjustments would be made.

I was happy that my order came extremely close to my high standard. Friends and Family enjoyed it as well. It was certainly a treat for all of 700+ calories per slice. That’s right folks, Suga recommends you lose 5 to 10 pounds before each Christmas to fully endulge guilt-free!

Looking forward to another season with Sweet Obsession!

How is the New Tracks and Records in Ochi?

Gabby from Suga Lifestyle at the entrance of Usain Bolt’s Tracks and Records (Ocho Rios)

Suga visited the new Usain Bolt’s Tracks and Records in Ocho Rios about 2 weeks ago for drinks. The pleasant female bartender served up some tasty cocktails that were creepers. They did warn you on the menu not to drink them too fast!

(L) Nine.58 (Rum Punch) – $800JMD; (R) Soon Come (Tia Maria, Bailey’s & Amaretto – $800JMD

Loved the innovative décor and use of colours.

I’ve heard the food is good. I could see persons got decent servings and our service was good.

There is also live band entertainment on Friday nights.

The negative? The location. A landmark Restaurant and Bar like this should be at a more attractive location, easier and safer to access by tourists and locals. So I doubt this franchise will do well.

Did you Know Wednesday is the Best Day to Hop on the Scale?

Getting fit for Christmas so you can eat on Christmas Day and Boxing Day guilt-free?

Wednesday is the best day of the week to accurately check your weight according to Personal Statistics and a study published by the Public Library of Science.

Remember it is always best to weigh first thing in the morning in the nude after you have used the bathroom and before eating or drinking anything.

Persons who exercise regularly and eat properly during the week tend to weigh less on a Wednesday after fluctuations from binge eating and/or drinking or getting in a cheat day the weekend before.

So try this once a week method instead of driving yourself crazy seeing your weight go up and down on different days of the week.

Good Luck Tomorrow Suga Bears!
