When she said “we won’t meet on earth again”, I got teary eyed. My great grandmother told me the same thing… she was perfectly healthy and died the next day. Our elders are much more wise than we give them credit for.
I love the way she told you not to open them infront of people, reminded me of my nan sending me home after visiting for a few weeks with hardo bread, a bagful of biscuits, carrot juice, spiced bun and some other things she had prepared as a going gift she always took us out of sight from the rest of the family to give us money and say don't make nobody trouble u enuh, this brought back those memories of the goodbyes especially the talk about god take care of you untill we meet again. Something very pure and warming about Jamaican elders like this woman. Beautiful people. 🖤🇯🇲
My guy asked the age old question 25 different ways respectfully and humbly waiting for her to answer. Until he guessed it himself 😂😂 I love the Elderly because they teach you ,even when saying nothing.. She made me smile foreal.🌷💪🏾
Matt! Your kindness and warmth towards with woman is uncanny . You constantly break past awkward barriers. Always feelin your vibez🙏 bless another gem of a video!
God Bless Miriam and Lola, the love in the souls of these two including yourself is aspirational. I wish I had the time to go out there and meet these 2. Thanks for the posts Matt, this made my day.🙏🏼
Such a beautyful soul in this woman. I would love to just sit and listen to her story .... so full of life ... i adore her! Great vid Matthew! Bless up!
Matthew....Matthew....You are the gift that keeps on giving 🙌🤗This is epic and so much meaning behind this video and its the love she's giving teaching you and the love you're giving back while learning from her and all of the many things she's prepared and done with her blessed hands and still til this day she's using her hands in the most loving way ❤🙏
@Ras Kitchen I appreciate what you are doing for our local custom. Sharing the real people experiences in Jamaica this is so authentic. Makes me want some real Jamaican chocolate tea with cinnamon leaves flavored. Keeping doing your ting! God guh wid u! Blessings bredda!
An authentic view of tradition. Love this so much and the music is perfect. Mat-tue cannot thank you enough for this behind the scene of authentic chocolate making. Brings back great memories.
Priceless chocolate you got there. Wisdom received and time spent with Miriam is worth more than any chocolate. One day you’ll sip that tea and smile looking back on that day. Long live Miriam.
I'm happy when i see someone keeping the tradition going,I will always be making chocolate as long as I'm able just as Miriam at her age.God bless her soul.
Oh my I love this so much.. She is so sweet and happy to show you how its done. I loved the mortar too, old but strong, just like her. You have a nice tender way with her Matt Bless your heart. Friends for over ten years. Shes got a lot of fire in her eyes yet. Those blessings she gave you, those are worth more than money and gold. I love it. Makes my heart sing.. " sweetest neighbors ever" as you said! keep those good vibes coming. Living in cold Calgary is taking its toll! lol Thank you! Bless Up
Miss Miriam is awesome, I could sit with her and just listen and learn so much. What a sweet soul. Very cool to see how real chocolate is made by home cooks.
Authentic organic chocolate, no preservatives and no gmo no chemicals 😋and Miriam is an absolute blessing, giving you the pure chocolate that she’s made especially for Matthew shows her pure heart ❤️. A very special vlog and a beautiful blessing from an elder😍nice vlog Matthew 👍🏽🙌🏽
I’ve ordered some of those chocolate tea balls from Jamaica and still have some. They are good in the winter in the United States. I was introduced to them in 1984 by an Army buddy who was married to a Jamaican woman. The first time drinking it is the best and it’s even better when you get to drink it in Jamaica..
My grandmother had one of those Malta and stick and I grew up watching her do these things. Brings back those memories watching Ms Miriam make the chocolate .
Big up Matthew you have Miriam that love you so much that she wanted you to get the chocolate before you leave and she dont want you to give them away to anyone. I love you video Miriam make my day with laughter.
If you search 'Chocolate Jamaica' and sort by upload date, Miriams face is the thumbnail for the oldest and the most recent video, and she has barely aged a day in 15 years :)
Oh my goodness, this is the sweetest thing I've ever seen in my entire life! Just when I thought I couldn't love Matthew anymore.... Sweet sweet Miriam, my name sake. My life is transformed seeing this...wow!
I did that when i was a young girl growing up in the country it was fun doing it .Matthew nuff love .u have a good heart u love people may God continue to bless and keep you and your family. Rass kitchen family one love
Matthew is such a good heart. I want to meet him and just be in his presence. Miriam is so strong for her age and her mind is still sharp. God is good.
Miriam telling Matthew not to share any of it, because it is for him. Big Grandma vibes
