All exquisitely seasoned cooked and baked to perfection.
Gloria loved going to vacation resorts, cruising and traveling. She enjoyed learning and experiences new cultures. Some of the countries visited in her travels included: Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados, Martinique, St. Thomas and the Bahamas, Dominica, St. Kitts, Nassau and Puerto Rico.
