<h4>Flourishing, Nourishing</h4>
<p>The Tea Grotto flourished last thursday night for KUER&#8217;s fall fundraiser.  Rebecca Sheeran hosted delightful tea and chocolate parings.  The cast of the radio show attended.  I had the opportunity to meet the jazziest voice on the radio, Steve Williams.</p>
<p>The chocolates were crafted by Katie and Stephen Hatch of Hatch Family Chocolates, they were simple, yet decadent delights.  Some of the Tea Pairings included ~</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Mint Chocolate Truffle with Jasmine Silver Tips Green Tea</strong></li>
<li><strong>Thick Dark Chocolate Draping Fresh Raspberries with Strawberry-Lemon Tea</strong></li>
<li><strong>Sliced Polenta Topped in Fresh Pesto, Pine Nuts, and Greens with Genmaicha</strong></li>
<li><strong>Chocolate Rum Nut with Marsala Chai Tea</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>I entertained the guests for the evening. I played classic jazz and my original compositions.</p>
<p><span id="more-506"></span></p>
<h4>Blooming, Flourishing</h4>
<p>All in all—<strong>the night was successful and inspiring!</strong> It&#8217;s amazing when folks get together, sharing their talents and gifts, offering them to each other, like flowers.  It was a very generous evening, in that it couldn&#8217;t have been successful without the generousity of all whom attended.</p>

The Tea Grotto is an enlightening spot in Salt Lake City. After you have a cup of tea and enjoy the calming enviroment, I just feel good, naturally good.</p>
<p>Thank you Rebecca for the beautiful evening, KUER for the fun and Hatch Chocolates for your confections.</p>

<p>Okay I&#8217;m writing a little extra, since this is a blog and all, and not just shameless self promotion.</p>
<p>Actually it is.  Who else is going to do it?  My fans, my family, my Steven, my Ronan ( in time will as well).</p>
<p>Alot of people are involved of helping me make my music carreer a go.  The Tin Angel family, The Tea Grotto Family,  The Big Ed&#8217;s Family.  The more music I make the more people are involved, the more magic happens.   And it&#8217;s happening, my music is blooming!  Come to my shows!  Share with me your muses and we can inspire each other!</p>
