drying out shells

Walk Off The Earth (Gotye cover) - "Somebody That I Used To Know"

Amazing band!

Loving these...2011 - 2012

I added hundreds of songs to my playlist for 2011 (not necessarily released during the year) but these are the ones that stand out. My ears are thanking and bowing down to the music gods for these...

bonus that the video is awesome;)

ladies, you simply rock...

hmmm...one post is not enough for all those awesome artists out there, more music posts coming soon!;)

Fresh Strawberries + Sugar Mouse

Mom got a basket of fresh strawberries from the weekend farmers market.

Aren't they lovely? 

 Here's a happy song to go along with these lovely berries...

Sunset View of Taal Volcano + Bliss

Muesli + Mumm-ra to set the mood of the day

an awesome breakfast with equally awesome music to start the day!

now, to tackle those darn weeds...

A gloomy day + Zee Avi to make it a little better

Low pressure area is making The Blue Cottage, bluer than usual. And not in a good way...But it seems like the perfect atmosphere for meandering and poetic thoughts. 

The sun is hiding behind austere clouds,

Fog slowly creeping in through half open windows and crevices,

Empty mugs of coffee stand one after another,

A hearty soup leisurely cooking on the stove,

A tower of tangled pillows and blankets beckoning me to slide back underneath…..

I would love to have the sun out instead and haphazardly skip to this song, oh well...
