Music (pieces of music) that each of my parents (respectively) had loved is what is on my mind just now.
would you think of "Over the Rainbow?"
If I read only that phrase, I'd think of Bob Ross, despite him painting mostly landscapes, not wildlife. I vaguely recall him once painting a "happy little squirrel", but I could be misremembering. Plent of happy little trees, happy little clouds, etc.... Or if you read the phrase "happy little bluebirds," would you think of "Over the Rainbow?" ...
Actually, it was nothing so subtle, or convoluted.Sometimes I find myself humming a song and wonder how that particular song got into my head. If I think about recent events, I can often figure out what the trigger was, such as something I read that had a phrase from the lyrics of the song. Our brains work by making associations, whether or not you're aware of them.
If someone said "I feel stupid," would your brain fill in the rest of the sentence? "I feel stupid, and contagious, here we are now, entertain us." Or if you read the phrase "happy little bluebirds," would you think of "Over the Rainbow?" If somebody mentioned a TV show, do you later find yourself humming the show's theme song?
It's always wonderful to find truly ripe produce, not that which traveled for two weeks.wonderful cherries and ripe apricots at the grocery store today
I did that ages ago when I did listened to music, which I hardly ever do today. My 'emotional body' don’t require it anymore after all meditation.Decided to rip all my CDs, cause I’d rather have them on a hard drive now. So I’m using two optical drives (the internal one on my 2011 15” and an external one) to copy the data. Seems to be going well so far!!
EDIT: Should note that I have six full-height spindles.
I live in a part of Scotland where soft fruit agriculture used to be king (You haven't lived until you have tasted fresh Tayberries...), but now I can't find so much as one decent raspberry in the store. Not one. Can't tell if it is the wonky weather, Brexit labour shortages, or both.wonderful cherries and ripe apricots at the grocery store today

Oh, yes, a heartfelt and profound amen to that; I love cherries and apricots.wonderful cherries and ripe apricots at the grocery store today
Brilliant.I live in a part of Scotland where soft fruit agriculture used to be king
Tayberries are terrific (but difficult to obtain, agreed).(You haven't lived until you have tasted fresh Tayberries...),
Perhaps you may need to patronise a local farmers' market, or a good local deli.but now I can't find so much as one decent raspberry in the store. Not one. Can't tell if it is the wonky weather, Brexit labour shortages, or both.
Agree completely; when ripe, raspberries are absolutely fantastic.My father was an avid gardener and his raspberry patch was his greatest success. They're fantastic at that moment of perfect ripeness.
Raspberries are my favourite fruit. However Mrs AFB planted a gooseberry she found in a plant pot last year. Already looking like it will bare fruit this year.

OK, Doctor Q: you sent me rushing to Google to find out what the heck this is!Ever tried an olallieberry? They are the best of all!

On my mind: Stonehenge and idiots.
Perhaps is is because Stonehenge seem to attract idiots like a magnet.Saw that. Whatever their beef was, Stonehenge had nothing to do with it. SMDH.
