after having put her bicycle in the back of the car to drive off all together, my friend got her finger stuck between the front car door.
The rich properties of shea butter, cocoa butter, kokum butter, mango butter, avocado oil, and carrot oil make this butter crème the ultimate base for dry and distressed skin. This crème absorbs quickly into the skin despite its high oil and butter content.

I'm so tired today! I had the crazy idea to go and see if I were able to do some xmas shopping today after work but I couldn't find anything that I like. All I got was some serious tired feet. Hope to have better luck tomorrow.
Both of my girls have one of these and were taking lessons for a while but then quit. I love the sounds on an acoustic guitar.
I wasn't sure how I'd feel about green walls when we first finished the office. I've grown to really like it.
I'm guessing these colors were used to keep the patients calm. Although according to this article: psychservices.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/full/57/10... the results of studies on the environment of a psychiatric hospital have been inconsistent.
i love the combination of sea blues, oranges and deep reds.

I haven't taken a picture of Fez in a long time. So when I found him listening to some tunes... I couldn't resist.

Burlap and opals. Moonshine and macrobiotics. Shaken and soothed. How Suzanne Santo (vocals/banjo/violin) and Ben Jaffe (vocals/guitar) managed to reconcile not just polemics, but seemingly opposed realities for their sexually tinged, bruised knee honeysuckle take on roots music has to be heard to be understood.
Yet somehow the young 20-somethings figured out that it’s the extremes that define the middle, whether embracing the big mistakes in the bluesy smoulder “Glad I Done What I Did,” embracing the romantic doubt that is the low slung gospel of “Don’t Know How,” or the euphoric romp-age of “Let’s Get Wrecked” that embraces the arc debauchery completely. This is the sound of coming not of age, but awareness; and digging into what it means to be alive permeates throughout honeyhoney’s October 24th release of Billy Jack on Lost Highway Records.
“The album is made of a lot of stories, a lot of lives,” Santo picks up. “We’re very different, but those differences are what makes it. I’ve had a lot of different times in my personal life that kinda leveled me as a person. That’s why this record is the way it is. It’s made of guts: what’s happening on the inside, the notion of us being really independent, being on our own. That’s a big reality.”
With fiddles threading the melodies, big acoustic guitar sounds and banjos plinking as percussively as melodically, there is an old world feel to honeyhoney that is as fresh and right now as it is tube radios and old lace.
And it is the disparity of how the two came up and came together that informs honeyhoney with their singularity of sound. Meandering through unique paths, converging in Los Angeles where everyone is chasing something, and finally recognizing the chemistry they shared is no mean feat.
Evoking California’s hippie Dust Bowl fringe, equal parts Okie squalor and Pacific shimmer, there is a strong pull of Woody Guthrie-esque folk, vintage Buffalo Springfield, glints of Gram Parsons and bits of Bonnie Raitt’s early blues, Rickie Lee Jones reality and Bakerfsfield Saturday nights. Not country, not folk, not rock, it is a hybrid that defies exact definition.
Still "Billy Jack" pumps with the thump of hearts on fire, levels with the pang of real instruments played like someone means it.
"If we want anything from these songs," adds Jaffe, "it’s to bring people into this music, to engage them.”
Engage them they will. With the three-month long “Ten Buck Tour” with Joshua James kicking off on September 21st in Albuquerque, honeyhoney is ready to bring their new songs to the people who inspire them the most: their friends, peers and fans.
On the brink of truly coming into their own, they are ready for whatever the music brings…
Tonight I sat on the shoreline at Lake Side park eating dinner with a friend. The rest of the evening I spent capturing the light and colors playing across the water. Was nice to escape my house :) Now I'm headed out to watch a movie, I hope you all have a great week.

My 2nd daughter wanted to learn how to play the violin so I got her the cheapest one I can find to start her off. No sense in buying something expensive for what could very well be a passing interest on her part.

A soothing mid-century paneled nook. Clifton's Cafeteria on Broadway, Grand Reopening, October 2015.
In 2012 the Los Angeles landmark closed for a painstaking renovation and before that was hidden behind an awful rusty metal screen for fifty years. They uncovered murals, grottos and the world's oldest continuously lit neon light in a wall. Unfortunately the turkey and mashed potatoes were too pricey and not tasty enough - after several chef and menu changes they closed the cafeteria again in 2018 and it has been operating as a semi-skeezy nightclub for the past two years.
From Wikipedia: Clifton's Cafeteria, once part of a chain of eight Clifton's restaurants, is the oldest surviving cafeteria-style eatery in Los Angeles and the largest public cafeteria in the world. Founded in 1931 by Clifford Clinton, the design of the restaurants included exotic decor and facades that would eventually include multi-story fake redwood trees, stuffed lions, neon plants, and a petrified wood bar. Some considered Clifton's as a precursor to the first tiki bars. The name was created by combining "Clifford" and "Clinton" to produce "Clifton's".
Clifton's has remained in operation for 74 years. The restaurant chain was noted for each facility having its own theme, and for aiding those who could not afford to pay. This approach to business reflected the owner's Christian ethos—he never turned anyone away hungry and maintained a precedent set by the first restaurant on Olive Street, known as "Clifton's Golden Rule". In 1946, Clifford and his wife Nelda sold their cafeteria interests to their three younger Clinton children, and retired to devote their attentions to a Meals for Millions, a non-profit charitable organization he founded in the wake of World War II to distribute food to millions of starving and malnourished people throughout the world.
