Ajiaco: Stirrings of the Cuban Soul

A slideshow I created of photos taken of the opening of the exhibit at the Newark Museum on June 7, 2011.  The music was from a CD I had by the group called :  Orishas a lo cubano, Track 13.  I can't remember where or when I bought the CD which was issued in 2000.  Is it possible I bought it around the time of the Newark Museum trip to Cuba in 2002?

Besides....who could resist a Sandal Sale at Macy's....buy 3 pairs and you get 30% off the already reduced prices. Looks like summer sandal season ends before the 4th of July!

Caught Up In "Spiderman's" Web!

Saw this on the 2011 Tony Awards show and loved it Of course, today's reviews of the opening really knocked it...but I want to see it for myself! I remember seeing Elton John's "Aida," also critic-panned...and joined the rest of the "what-do-we-know" audience in a standing ovation (which I understand happened all the time).

Cuban Artist: (Jesus) Cepp Selgas

Two Selgas' paintings are on view at the Newark Museum in the exhibition "Ajiaco" (through August 14, 2011).  This is a 10-minute video of Selgas creating one of his works (2006).  I found it fascinating!

Absinthe Makes the Heart Grow Fonder!

Came across these 2 recipes for drinks using my fav...St. George Absinthe.  Thought this blog would be a good place to store the recipes and perhaps even make it to the Brookyn Bar.
