Lulu and Lila, The Smooth Red Stone by Vivian "Gigi" Gross and Granddaughter Romeo Sky Ramirez

Congratulations to Vivian and Romeo Sky on the publication of their new children's book!

This book is the result of the quality time a grandmother has been willing to spend with her granddaughter. It also captures the great imagination of a young girl who loves reading. According to grandmother Gigi,Romeo has always enjoyed creating characters in their new stories. Romeo Sky was visiting her grandmother. She brought a lot of books which she displayed on the nearby desk. I had the opportunity to read a book to Romeo who asked me to continue reading other books to her. Before I complied with her request,Gigi, the grandmother, intervened to set me free.

From that very moment, I knew it was just a matter of time before Gigi and Romeo set out to share with us their wonderful world of storytelling and amazing creation.

"Lulu and Lila, The smooth Red Stone" is the story of two identical twin girls, Lulu and Lila, who got invited by a mermaid to embark on a great maritime adventure. All their wishes came true after finding a smooth red stone.

Where can you buy this new book?

You can buy it at Amazon.com

You can also buy this book at Xlibris.com

Disclosure:

Vivian is this reviewer's friend. She is an amazing storyteller with many stories to tell and share with us. I hope to read your next books. Keep writing them!

What Goes Into the Preparation of Haitian Pikliz: The Basic Ingredients You Should Have

You can make Haitian pikliz easily. Your family members, especially the kids, will thank you for it!

Here is a list of the basic ingredients:

First, you must have a container to put all the ingredients in. Let's say you have a large bottle, a jar or anything you can close afterwards.

Depending on the amount of people you want to serve, start with 3 grated carrots, a teaspoon of olive oil, one or two grated onions, 3 cups of crushed, minced leaves of cabbage, 1 cup of peas, 1 teaspoon of salt; then add 1 teaspoon of pepper, 1 teaspoon of crushed garlic; add 6 cut peppers;
add some white vinagre.

Do not forget your onions, carrots, and cabbages. Well, you can other ingredients of your choice.
