Years ago, in the States, Patrick and I were going to have dinner at a friend’s place.  Dinner was at 6:30 so I was ready to jump into the shower around 6 p.m.  After all, who eats dinner at 6:30?  Having spent a good part of my life in Europe where dinner didn’t start before […]

Maya Muses:  For all you Geraldine Larrosa fans who have been asking about her new album and/or concert dates, Geraldine sent me a clip from her new album that will be out at the beginning of March.

Maya Muses:  Patrick and I thought we would be in Paris by now to see Geraldine perform in the musical Zorro. Instead, we’re still packing up our things and I hardly have a moment to do anything else!  We sure under-estimated our packing time!  So instead of a post, (no time!) I’ll continue to let […]
