I’ve fallen in love, with this pair of Bluetooth earphones. I wasn’t sure if I would like them. I’ve always had wired earphones before. So I bought a black pair, to try it, and liked them. But recently, I lost them. So I bought a new pair, in pink, for a slightly higher price. And… Continue reading Bluetooth Love

My Love of Coffee

It’s a ritual full of the senses, that I enjoy. There is the rich smell of the coffee,… Continue reading My Love of Coffee

Over the pandemic, I found a new TV show, that’s become my favourite. It’s Micheal Portillos Great British Railway Journeys. Although I do like his Contintental series aswell.

Struggles with Breakfast
I’m not very good with breakfast. I try. I really do. But most of the time, I’m not hungry. The sleeping tablets really help with insomnia, but they mess with my stomach in the morning. But I know if I don’t eat something, I will get a headache. So I end up forcing myself to… Continue reading Struggles with Breakfast

And you can hear the bass clarinet, it’s rich and… Continue reading Four Play Clarinet
Loving Saxophones and Clarinets
Of course I love the clarinet. I love its rich woody sound, that oozes like caramel, that expresses a thousand stories and songs in each note. It’s an old friend, that I treasure dearly, comforting and familiar. It’s my true love. But there are other kinds of love. And I have fallen head over heels… Continue reading Loving Saxophones and Clarinets
