sunday song – hands up / wang dang doodle

When I was 17 I was given this album as a Christmas present by my boyfriend’s father. He was always trying to broaden my horizons re: art, dance, music, literature. Anyhow, this song is the intro from a live recording of the Pointer Sisters at the Grand Ole Opry (the first black female group to perform there) and it’s wonderful. Enjoy!

world cocktail day

Yes, World Cocktail Day is actually a thing, and it’s also today. I just found out this morning and, as luck would have it, I had plans to meet Peter for lunch at a “new” taquería (well, new to me) and well… it would’ve been rude not to. I had a margarita and Peter a paloma, which is like a margarita but made with grapefruit juice. Both were lovely. Did you partake today? I’m going to have to put this in my calendar. 🍸🍹🥃
