Revelation Mizik Live!

South Florida is a cultural melting pot!  From the Patois-language spoken at the barber shop to the Creole echoed in the streets on Little Haiti—it’s a multilingual cornucopia.  For me-- I love Haitian Gospel Music. Especially Revelation Mizik!

Ismael Louis- (co-worker/photographer extraordinaire) is one of the lead band members of

Revelation Mizik! That’s him playing the drums!

 Along with being an amazing artist--he's serious about his sock game and is truly is a Fashion Icon in South Florida! Check out his style!

Pumpkin Soup on New Year's Day!! :)

Are you hoping that 2013 will be a great year? Try some of these foods that are believed to bring good luck!  In Mexico, they eat 12 grapes, making a wish with each one.  In the southern United States, they eat black eye peas.  The peas expand when you cook them-- symbolizing growth and fortune in the New Year!

There's also a traditional dish that is sure to make you lucky in the New Year-- Soup Joumou--Haitian Pumpkin Soup! It's so yummy! The soup was once forbidden to slaves-- so in honor of their independence they eat the soup on January 1st! The soup is made and served to friends in family in remembrance of their fight for free!

I am so blessed to have friends to share this yummy soup with me! So instead of grapes or black eye peas-- it's Pumpkin Soup for me!

Do you eat any special food for New Years???

Haitian Gospel Festival

South Florida is a cultural melting pot!  From the Patois-language spoken at the barber shop to the Creole echoed in the streets on Little Haiti—it’s a multilingual cornucopia.  For me, I struggle to learn all the different languages. I don’t understand Creole—but I love Haitian Gospel Music.

Earlier this month, the fourth annual Haitian Gospel Fes­tival was held at Gwen Margo­lis Park in North Miami Beach. Sev­eral hun­dred people turned out for the show, which was hosted by Good Life Min­istry.

Ismael Louis- (co-worker/photographer extraordinaire) is one of the lead band members of

Revelation Mizik! That’s him with his son playing the drums!

Over 15 acts performed in this awesome night of praise and worship!
