Swish Me Clean

“Bask’ing In The Sun” In Chicago by Lake Michigan in August, 2016.

HEAR YE! HEAR YE!

HER MAJESTY’S COURT IS NOW IN SESSION!

Let the court jester begin!…….

Lizz Wright (Her Majesty 😀), my favorite singer of all time (and forever), sings a song, penned by K. D. Lang, called “Wash Me Clean”.

It’s a dreamy tune that sends me to a lofty space where I start dreaming wide awake.

In a previous post called “SHHHH! Genius At Work”! (Unearthing Her Grace), I shared a story about that song and I mentioned how much I like “Wash Me Clean” and how it elevates me to that dreamy state of mind, a place I like to go from time to time. It’s one of those songs that grabbed me and wouldn’t let go. (I am a dreamer, after all.)

One day, I imagined doing a slo-mo video of only swish shots, and pairing it up with Her Majesty’s cover of “Wash Me Clean”.

But the court jester (me), being a jester, dubbed the video “Swish Me Clean”.

Sound Bytes #2….”Sound Views from Anacortes”

April 14, 2019

(Photo taken from Mt. Erie lookout point.)

In “Sound Bytes (Intro)”, I explained how the idea for this Sound Byte Series was spawned.

I wanted to pair together and share the beauty of the Puget Sound, my favorite place, and the beauty of the musical sound of Lizz Wright, my favorite singer.

In the previous post, “Sound Bytes #1 (Seattle And The Sounds)”, I showcased the Puget Sound area around Seattle, and Lizz Wright singing “Reaching For The Moon”, (my favorite cover of all the covers that she does).

In this post, I share some views of the Puget Sound, from two mountain tops in the Anacortes area, where the Anacortes Ferry Terminal is located, and some views of the Puget Sound from aboard the ferry, while I was on my way to San Juan Island. It’s one of the ways to get to the San Juan Islands.

I also share the musical sound of Lizz Wright, singing ” I’m Confessin’ “, in “Sound Bytes #2”. I know you’re going to like it.

Domoda (West African Cuisine)

March 31, 2019

So I was listening to Lizz Wright’s music the other day……..duh!!

That’s like saying, “So I was breathing the other day…….” 😃

Anyway, so I was having multiple soulgasms (that’s a good thing!), listening to all of Lizz’s songs from my “Lizzles” playlist, while I was working on the previous post, “Seconds of Pleasure”, as well as making “Domoda”, a West African dish, loved by people from The Gambia (as well as I).

“SNOW-BALL”

February 12, 2019

Sunday (February 3)

Last Sunday, I was at home just chillin’, in anticipation of a snow storm they said was on the way.

At first it was light, but in a little while it started to come down harder and bigger.

Then I got a “snow alert” from my son, Tim. It’s a tradition in our household. The first one to see the snow coming down calls the other one.
