Moulin de Paris in Pasadena, MD

I met Alice at Moulin de Paris for afternoon tea. This is not an easy place to find. It takes perseverance. Right, Alice?

                 Nice decor inside. I took a shot while waiting for Alice to arrive.

                  Fresh flowers were on each table.


I used the the Cannon Rebel set on automatic. After loading the photos into iPhoto I noticed that that ISO, f stop, etc were listed for each picture. I also took a shot of the outside but don't think I'll post it because the humidity was so great that the lense fogged up contiunuously. [I am only an egg]

Marija Temo - Flamenco Artist (and much loved by Patty)

Marija just landed a national commercial for Taylor Guitars/GE Capital!

She is playing the guitar music throughout the entire commercial. Some of the music she composed and arranged.  Quite comically, they put the head of Deb Barker, GE representative, on Marija’s body during the guitar scene, so you probably won't know it's her playing.

"It was an absolute blast, amazing adventure, and a wonderful challenge! I am very grateful for the opportunity and experience."

It will be airing starting July 5
