Over the past 18 months I have had the great opportunity to travel many places. Two related places have been Singapore and St. Lucia.How are these related in one post you ask? The answer is Nutmeg!

Below is a picture of a giant nutmeg sculpture that I saw in Singapore in the fall of 2010.

Last fall I had the opportunity to tour the Diamond Falls Botanical Garden, Soufriere in St. Lucia where I saw real nutmeg for the first time.
