Got the Blues...Harp.

So I've been indulging myself a bit lately and here's what I've found:

Finally! A men's fashion blog that I'm inclined to follow. The Armoury is killing it with Men's style- kickass combos of texture, color, and pattern and some dang good photos. I'm diggin it. 

I've also bought myself a Hohner Blues Harp (Key of C) that I'm trying to learn on. Diatonic = 10 holes, 2 reeds per hole. Or at least that's what some guy on YouTube said. Now that I'm learning more about the instrument, I'm learning a lot more about technique and what really great harmonica playing should sound like. Like this guy- who keeps me motivated:



Or this girl who gives an entire instructional video on playing the harmonica without uttering a word. 



Can't wait to get awesome and possibly learn how to play Roseanne's theme song. haha! 

Also, Ratto's in Oakland has this soft cheese made from 3 different milks in Italy. It is so worth trying out if you ever find yourself in old town Oakland during lunch time! 

I'm also on the lookout for a lentil recipe that involves beer. I've been finding some lentil soup that calls for beer but we'll see what I end up doing. bwahahaha ah ah ah!
