. . . reached out across the blogosphere last week and gave me a lovely Kreativ Blogger Award. Many thanks for this honour, Miss Zoe and Marcy Hall at Ordinary Enchantment!
Seven Rules
1. Thank the person giving the award (or, in this case, the person and rabbit giving the award).
2. Copy the award to your blog.
3. Place a link to their blog.
4. Name seven things people don't know about you.
5. Nominate seven other bloggers who you admire.
6. Place a link to these bloggers.
7. Leave a comment on their blog notifying them of the award.
Seven Unknown Facts
As you will see, I am in a distinctly musical frame of mind at the moment:
1. I adore bagpipes. Anytime. Anywhere.
2. My favourite composers are Bach, Handel, Mozart and Beethoven. None of them ever wrote a bad note in their entire friggin' lives.
3. There's nothing I like better than a good hurtin' country song. The more steel guitar, the better.
4. Actually, I enjoy all types of music. And yes, that includes rap once in a while, provided that the lyrics are not violent, sexist or homophobic.
5. The only musical instrument I play is the recorder (badly). But I have been playing it (badly) for 40 years. I am nothing if not persistent.
6. I also do soul drumming at my drumming circle. Like the priestesses of old, we drum to the Great Goddess.
7. I like to serenade my cat, Her Royal Highness, by singing the Meow Mix Song (her personal fave). Don't worry, I don't do it in public. At least not yet.

Yes - the bagpipes! Especially on a stormy day. I don't know why a stormy day... I guess it's kind of erie. Which bagpipes are not. Hmm...I've gotten lost here...
ReplyDeleteHa! You are so funny...you can't be a bad recorder if you have been playing it for 40 years! You just can't. Meow Meow Meow Meow.. Meow Meow Meow Meow...Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow... :)
ReplyDeletePutting in my vote for the 'pipes too! When I was a kid, one of our neighbours played the bagpipes and I loved hearing him practise. They always make me teary-eyed. And you're absolutely right about #2 as well. There's no denying genius.
