Panta Rhei – Didgeital

Panta Rhei is another obscure group I particularly enjoy.  The album “Rainbow Dancer” is a trip to the seven continents… an excellent melding of world music.

This cut, one of my favorites, is today’s offering.  A look at Australia and strongly featuring the didgeridoo, a great example of Panta Rhei’s talent.

Vintage Cameras

I won a couple eBay auctions for old Kodak Folding Pocket cameras.  They’re in the mail and I’m anxious to get them.

First one is a Kodak No. 1 Autographic camera.  It came with the stylus, which is pretty unusual… they get lost easily.  The Autographic cameras have a small door on the back where one can use the stylus to make notes directly on the film.

The second one is a Kodak 2C Junior Autographic.  It’s pretty clean except for a small piece of the fabric missing on the front.  I love the brass and metal on both the cameras.

Mexican Mocha Bundt Cake

Mexican Mocha Bundt CakeI made a Mexican Mocha Bundt Cake for the NFC playoff game last Saturday. We had a potluck and since Jamie made chimichangas, Mexican chocolate fit right in.

Here’s the recipe in PDF form:

Raspberry Beret

So I was perusing second-hand stores today and actually found a Raspberry Beret!

Raspberry Beret


Listen or download Raspberry Beret for free on Pleer

I was working part time in a five-and-dime
My boss was mr. mcgee
He told me several times that he didn’t like my kind
Cause I was a bit 2 leisurely

Seems that I was busy doing something close 2 nothing
But different than the day before
That’s when I saw her, ooh, I saw her
She walked in through the out door, out door

She wore a
Raspberry beret
The kind u find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn’t wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
