JAMAICAN SWEET FESTIVAL DUMPLINGS
Jamaican sweet festival dumplings always remind me of my now departed former pastors wife. She would make these and sneak me bags of them on Sundays when I was first a child, then a teen and finally as a young married mom.

The recipe is simple, but for me, they are packed with tradition and memories of the sweetest Jamaican woman who has made a huge impact on my life.
