Honorary Consul's Monthly Message

Welcome to the November Newsletter!

November is the month to remember as we pay tribute on Veterans Day, to the men and women who risked their lives and bravely fought for the ideals of liberty, freedom, democracy, and justice for the United States of America.

It is also a time to count our blessings as we sat down with our friends and families on Thanksgiving Day and enjoyed a lovely traditional turkey meal with all its trimmings, while reflecting on the many blessings bestowed on each of our lives. It’s a holiday steeped in history when the forefathers of this country observed “thanksgivings,” or days of prayer for such blessings as safe journeys, military victories, or abundant harvests.

In Belize we commemorate the historic and momentous day when the Garifuna people made Belize their home on October 19th, 1802. This year the celebrations are being observed under the theme, “our land, our culture, our future, involving our youths for Garifuna survival after 200 years in Belize.” Every year on this date their descendants celebrate with a “Yurumein” or re-enactment of their arrival in 1802. Some activities that take place include crowd parades and honoring of all things traditional.

In only one day, the countdown to Christmas begins, the season of giving, hope, love, and good cheer! In this edition we hope to get you in the spirit of Christmas and inspire you to perhaps try some of the Belizean Christmas traditions wherever you may be.

I was recently speaking to a dear friend of mine and talented cook, Ms. Aileen Neal who was recalling that her family in Belize City, prepared the traditional black fruit cakes, white fruit cakes, and the plain white cakes.

These were all kept in a “safe” or cupboard with a ventilated screen to ensure freshness, where other food like bread, butter and eggs were stored. Similarly, I understand that my grandmother used to do the same and on Christmas day, friends and family would stop by and enjoy all the delicious cakes with a little bit of wine.

Let us not forget the annual tradition of preparing our homes for the big day by painting, cleaning, polishing, varnishing, and laying down fresh linoleum. Belizean homes gleamed and the smell of oil paint and varnish are still fresh in my memory while growing up in my grandmother’s house on Albert Street.

In this edition, we also share with you a poignant recollection from a Belizean, Ms. Joan Burrell of her memories of Christmases past in Belize. We hope that we can keep some of these traditions alive so they will live on for all ages to come.

November was also a month of “heavy lifting” for the Government of Belize, with positive results to show.

The Prime Minister of Belize, the Honorable John Briceño, along with other Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), met with the leadership of Saudi Arabia in Riyadh, on November 16th, 2023, for the inaugural Saudi Arabia-CARICOM Summit.

The Summit was co-chaired by His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince, and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, reaffirming their mutual interests and friendly relations.

The leaders exchanged views on issues of common interest and discussed ways to further expand and advance their partnership to take advantage of the growth opportunities that can be utilized through cooperation in important areas of mutual interest such as trade and investment, tourism, security, education, and health among others.

Locally, Prime Minister Briceño demonstrated a hands-on approach to governance in the Stann Creek District, engaging with municipal officers and highlighting the importance of community development.

In Belize City, the Prime Minister congratulated the Turneffe Atoll Sustainability Association (TASA) on its 10th Anniversary, aligning with his vision for a sustainable Belize. Additionally, he provided a comprehensive update on #PlanBelize, addressing diverse needs such as free education, healthcare quality, job growth, and land ownership.

On the domestic front, the government's impactful initiatives are highlighted in the "GOB Movers and Shakers" section. Noteworthy accomplishments include the Ministry of Labour's successful awareness campaign against child labor, the inclusion of Julian Cho Technical High School in the Education Upliftment Project by the Ministry of Education, a collaborative effort between the Ministry of Agriculture and Fyffes to combat childhood malnutrition, and the Ministry of Public Utilities, Energy, Logistics & E-Governance unveiling Belize's National Energy Policy at the Energy Fair 2023.

Additionally, the Ministry of Sustainable Development organized the Second Annual Belize National Climate Change Week in Dangriga.

In this edition, we welcome the addition of a Christmas message from Ambassador H.E. Lynn R. Young, and our "Tidbits" section offers a blend of insights on Belizean culture, economy, and tourism.

Explore the fascinating life and work of Mr. Daniel Rath, a dynamic young man who is also an accomplished soil scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council, whose dedication to environmental sustainability has made a positive impact in the communities he has served. The Consulate of Belize in Florida is proud to call him its Star of the Month! Belizeans do great things wherever they are!

Have you decided what your Christmas menu will be yet? Will it be the traditional stuffed turkey and ham with rice and beans, potato salad and cranberry sauce or will it be another Belizean Christmas favorite, the Relleno Negro or “Black Dinna”? And of course, we also have the delicious Bollos or Tamales to choose. Belizeans are so blessed to have such a diverse culture resulting in the most scrumptious mix of cuisines.

In this edition, under “Recipe of the Month”, we are sharing with you a very special recipe submitted by Ms. Aileen Neal for her Black Fruit Cake. Ms. Aileen shared her cake with me one Christmas and it was so delicious, I still remember it. And under the “Street Food” series, it’s the comforting corn Atole to help warm our bodies on these cold nights. Try these recipes and fill your home with the sweet smell of Christmas!

The staff, Trudy, Olivia, and I wish you and yours a very Happy Christmas and may all your New Year dreams come true!

We hope you enjoy this edition filled with inspiring and uplifting stories. Thank you for your continued readership and support! Enjoy and share with your friends.

And remember, it is good to be a Belizean!

Warm wishes,

Dear Members of the Belizean Diaspora,

As the festive season approaches, I extend warm greetings to each of you, our cherished Belizean family living abroad. This time of year is a poignant reminder of the vibrant traditions and rich heritage that bind us together, regardless of distance.

The spirit of Christmas transcends borders, connecting us through shared memories and the enduring love for our homeland, Belize. It is a time to reflect on our journey, celebrate our achievements, and embrace the warm sense of community that defines us. It is a time that we celebrate with Brukdong and Johncunu, wherever we may be.

While many of you are far from Belize's sandy shores and lush landscapes, remember that our nation's heart beats strongly within you. Your contributions, whether through cultural, economic, or social means, continue to play a vital role in our nation's growth and prosperity.

Along those lines, please consider making a contribution to the Ham/Turkey & Toy Drive that is being managed by Build Belize Inc.

In the words of one of my father’s popular Christmas Songs which I produced with Brad Pattico,

Come mek we bring back the ole fashion Christmas

with Boom & Chime, and de sorrel wine.

Come mek we bring back the ole fashion Christmas

With the Bram Paaty, food and drinks hearty,

turkey with rice and beans, salad with local greens;

And the Johncunu, Entertain unu;

Christmus, true true Chrismus.

Wishing you and your loved ones a Merry Belizean ole fashion Krismos filled with happiness, health, and the warmth of Belizean love.

Sincerely,

H.E. Lynn Young

The Belizean Garifuna community is a vibrant and integral part of the cultural mosaic of Belize. With a rich heritage rooted in the Garifuna people's history of migration, resistance, and cultural preservation, this community has made significant contributions to the country's cultural and social fabric.

The Garifuna language, music, and dance are distinctive elements that showcase the unique identity of the Belizean Garifuna community. Traditional drumming and dancing, including the lively Punta and Paranda styles, are not only forms of cultural expression but also powerful symbols of unity and resilience.

In addition to their cultural contributions, the Belizean Garifuna community actively participates in various aspects of national life, including education, business, and community development. Celebrations such as Garifuna Settlement Day on November 19th, provide an opportunity for the entire nation to honor and celebrate the rich cultural heritage of the Garifuna people and culture.

Daniel Rath is a soil scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council who works with agricultural systems to protect natural habitats, promote a more just and equitable society, and ensure food system reliability in the face of climate change.

A proud product of Dangriga (and of his parents, Therese and Tony Rath), Daniel spent the first 17 years of his life living in the Benguche and Isla Road neighborhoods of Dangriga. This childhood left him with a love of hudut, excellent Punta skills, and the ability to creatively problem-solve with limited resources. He started out his education at Sacred Heart and Holy Ghost primary schools before moving to Ecumenical High School where he had his first hands-on experience with agriculture.

He started out raising chickens and growing sweet peppers with the 3-Science class in the small garden plot behind the school building and learned several important lessons – mainly that you should never name an animal that you are eventually going to cook and eat.

Daniel graduated from Ecumenical High as valedictorian in 2005, receiving CXC awards in Agriculture, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Literature. He then moved right across the road to Ecumenical Junior College (EJC), majoring in Math, Computer Science and Environmental Science. While there, Daniel also took his first foray into politics when he successfully ran for Vice-President of the Student Council and experienced how difficult it was to turn a campaign promise into concrete policy.

After graduating from EJC in 2007, Daniel moved to Minnesota to study Biology at Carleton College.

This was his first time conducting research, learning how to run plant surveys in the school’s arboretum and on the Minnesota prairie during the summer, and working on animal surveys in Tanzania and Ecuador as part of field courses.

While all of this ecology research mainly confirmed that Daniel did not want to be an ecologist, it did teach him that he wanted a job where he got to work in the outdoors. So when he received a message shortly after graduating from Carleton in 2010 – “Would you like to move to India and work on an organic farm?”, he jumped at the opportunity.



This began a 2-year adventure in India, where he started an organic farming company with some college friends selling organic tea and vegetables. While travelling across India, Daniel saw first hand the issues faced by farmers when confronted with declining soil fertility, shifting rainfall patterns, pests and diseases. It also became clear that while farmers had lots of questions, and many home-grown solutions to problems in the field, there was a serious lack of soils expertise and technical assistance.

However, it was only after Daniel returned to Belize that he realized that farmers in India and Belize were asking the same questions. Questions about soil fertility, questions about long-term viability and sustainability of small farms in an uncertain agricultural market, and questions about legacy and succession.

These questions formed the basis of Daniel’s graduate work in soil science, first at the University of Edinburgh, and later at the University of California, Davis where he studied how long-term agricultural systems can be made more sustainable. In particular, he focused on the living part of the soil – the invisible network of tiny organisms beneath our feet that purify our water, break down our waste, and help grow our food.

He currently lives in Blacksburg, Virginia, where he works at the Natural Resources Defense Council – an international environmental NGO whose purpose is to safeguard the Earth’s natural resources for future generations.

The NRDC works on many different issues, including climate change, nature & wildlife, equity & justice and human health. Daniel’s team is focusedon promoting policies that protect soils, incentivize sustainable agriculture, and shine a spotlight on soil biodiversity. This includes promoting practices such as cover cropping in the US, trying to protect soil biodiversity in agricultural systems, and promoting small, diversified farms across the US.

Along the way, Daniel’s ability to dance Punta allowed him to find a girlfriend, and his ability to cook rice and beans allowed him to turn her into his wife. His communication skills, developed while working at Pelican Beach Resort in Dangriga, have stood him in good stead whether delivering TEDx talks in Belmopan, or briefings to US Congressmembers.

He continues to work in Belize – working with environmental NGOs such as Yaaxche to deliver soil science training in Toledo and working on a digital soil map of Belize in his spare time. Out of all the places he’s visited, Belize is still his favorite place to be!

 We are proud to call you our Star of the Month!

Belizean Black Fruit Cake

from "The Best of Belizean Cuisine" (2005)

by Aileen Neal 

Ingredients

• 2 cups of Brown Sugar
• 2 sticks or 1 cup of Butter or Margarine
• 3 cups of Unbleached all purpose Flour
• 3 tsp Baking Powder
• ½ cup Syrup (maple, alaga, cane etc.)
• 4 beaten Eggs
• 1 tsp Vanilla
• 1 tsp Cinnamon
• ½ tsp grated Nutmeg
• 1 pt black coloring or brunt Sugar
• 1 cup stout
• 2 Ibs mixed fruit: mixed fruit, prunes, dates, cherries and pecans

Process:

To prepare the fruit, combine all the fruits in a bowl and add rum, allowing them to soak for about 3 days. In a saucepan, add water and sweeten to taste with brown sugar.

Once the liquid boils, incorporate the fruit mixture and simmer until a syrup forms. Let it cool to room temperature; this can be prepared the night before.

For the cake batter, in a bowl, cream together sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and butter or margarine until light and fluffy.

Add vanilla, eggs gradually, and syrup, mixing well.

Sift together flour and baking powder, then add to the mixture, mixing thoroughly.

Introduce black coloring to achieve the desired color and mix well.

Add baking powder to the stewed fruits, let it stand for 5 minutes, then incorporate it into the cake mixture. Mix well.

Grease, flour, and line the bottom of a 9" cake pan with parchment paper.

Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake until a tester comes out clean at 325°F.

Once the cake is cold, moisten it with rum or wine.

Belizean Corn Atole

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup of Masa flour
• 3 cups of Water
• 1 cup of Milk
• 1/4 cup of Brown sugar (dark is better!) (this amount can be modified for taste)
• 3 Cinnamon sticks or 1-2 teaspoons of ground Cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon of Vanilla (optional)

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, toast the masa flour (this step can alternatively be done on a comal).

Gradually pour in the entire amount of water while whisking continuously.

Add milk slowly, along with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla, bringing the mixture to a simmer.

Whisk consistently throughout the simmering process, lasting approximately 5 minutes, until the desired thickness is achieved; typically, Atole has a thick yet easily drinkable consistency.

Whisk the surface to generate foam and then ladle the Atole into mugs. Serve promptly.
