Reflecting on Bobby Watson's choice of expression when seeing a woman whose
looks appeals to him made me realize that in Spanish, especially Caribbean
Spanish there's a popular phrase, "si cocina como camina" which in English
translates to "if she cooks like she looks".

Check out the new CD, "It's Happening" by vocalist Pérez on Zoho, on the
back cover there's a tip of the hat tribute to the Lou Donaldson Blue Note
album cover Good Gracious!
