GILBERT MUSINGS: Art Collected ...is my personal blog, an insight into my brain to what I find interesting, unique, thought provoking, funny, warped and beautiful. All can be considered a visual eye-candy collection.

Tidbits from my art & culture Blogzine Art Nectar << (yea, you can click it to check it out) and my dabblings in photography and artwork are peppered throughout.

Triva:   Menorca is the second largest of the Balearic islands (off the coast of Spain). It takes its name from being smaller than the nearby island of Majorca. The current population is an extremely ethnically diverse mix of Moors, Greeks, Turks, and Arabs. This Jazz Festival usually runs every year from Spring through early Summer. Interesting Fact: Mayonnaise was invented in Menorca. Although widely disputed by the French, mayonnaise was first created on the island of Menorca, where it was originally known as Salsa Mahonesa. The sauce was brought over to France by Louis-Francois-Armand Du Plessis du Richard after he defeated the British at the port of Mahon. Although the French may not have invented mayonnaise, they perfected the recipe, by adding vegetable oil.    someotherpeople: Poster: Menorca Jazz.
