Quick: see if you know your hot stuff.  Which of these images represents authentic salsa?

The answer, of course, is that all 3 pictures represent salsa.  Salsa is a spicy mix of tomatoes, onions, and chili peppers from Mexcio that makes a delicious addtion to the table.  But it’s also an informal dance style with its roots in the Caribbean. And it even descirbes a kind of Latin music that incorporates jazz, Cuban  big band sounds, and Afro-Carribean rhythms.

At the flower show, salsa means all these things and more. It means a great line-up of entertainment, foods, and floral displays that we’ll have for you on Sat., Jan. 31.

Be sure to catch Chef Alex Palacios, owner of Salsa Havana, when he takes the Home Depot stage that afternoon at 5 P.M. to talk about cooking salsa-style.  At 4:15 P.M., try your fancy footwork to the Latin/jazz  melodies of Cliff and Sei deMarks.

Don’t worry if the weather is cold on Saturday. We’ll be nice and warm in the flower show as we ignite our gardening passions with a little salsa on the side!

cheers,

Lynn
