Claudius Pratt & Justin Moses Gunn from Shine came by for a visit on Thursday. We ate some curry, talked about New York/Expat Life and most of all: Creativity! Stay tuned...
It's good to see that you are keeping good company up North (Shine) but I'm wondering, did they play for their dinner like the wandering troubadours of Ye Olde Europa or did you just cook for them out of the kindness of your heart? I can smell that good West Indian curry dish way down here in Germany and yes, I'm jealous of Claudius and Justin 'cause I am not at the table with my head bent low over a plate of that good cooking.
I left a response to your last comment at my place and again, thank you for your kind words. I'm the lucky one to have people like you at my back, not the other way around.
P.S. Girl, you have really been busy sprucing up your blog over the last few months. Looks nice too, real nice.
Yeah, I shoulda made them play me some music on their visit, but instead, we had a meeting! Putting a show together, perhaps something you can come to Copenhagen for? Anyho--you know I'll make you some good trini curry whenever we finally meet each other! Hugs, the lab

Thanks sis for dropping by! Glad you like their music! I do too--they joke that they should pay me to follow them at concerts cause I make a lot of noise when they play! hugs, lab
I'll be rolling out my third memoir, currently untilted over at Substack . In it, I cover the period of time when I returned to Denmark during the pandemic, my move to a small island and all it revealed.
