​The beautiful, Hassina Heather

​The beautiful, Hassina Heather

My mother is from Trinidad. The superstitions that she has passed onto me over the years are almost a sort of religion, in a sense. I'll update this section once a week and each post will consist of direct sayings that my mother has said to me throughout my childhood and even now. They will be comprised of West Indian superstitions, general superstitions, some advice, memorable thoughts, and/or some Hassina originals. She’s a lovely woman and I take all of this stuff ridiculously seriously, unfortunately. 

New posts every Thursday.

All the illustrations are done by the lovely Andrew Hamm.
