Musical Fusion

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine…

NOLA


I ended last month’s cruise to the Caribbean with a few days in New Orleans.  I have always wanted to go since hearing about its amazing contribution to music in Jazz History class.  So much mystery surrounds this city and I learned so much about its past while taking some walking tours of the cemetery […]

One of the things I love to do on weekends when I’m not working is cook! You can find me on a Saturday morning watching FOOD Network episodes of Barefoot Contessa, The Pioneer Woman, Giada at Home and more. Last Saturday I felt inspired to go to the grocery store and pick-up ingredients to make […]

Greetings from Jamaica!


When this blog posts I’ll be in the Caribbean enjoying the Sun and celebrating my parents 40th wedding anniversary.  I’ve been to Jamaica once before and love reggae but have I mentioned that I played in a steel drum band in High School? Steel drums are pitched percussion instruments that originated in The Republic of […]
