This has zero relevance to anything which is the perfect way for me to come out of my social media hole I fell into.
So ~~~ bought my dog Larry David a toy cause I was like GUMBY!!!! Which is weird lol. Mmmm ya here’s my Gumby story.
When I was 18 I apprenticed on an Organic Winery & Farm in Healdsburg, CA. Long story short, the owners were a husband and wife couple who were such sweet & they definitely weren’t boring. The husband dropped out of college & told his dad he was going to find Bob Dylan. Lol & he did. The rest of the details I won’t indulge but like what?!
His wife - the ruler of the roost - was the graphic design artist who created the wine labels & really just supported her husband in everything he did. Just cool people.
✨ Anyways, she was the voice of Gumby’s sister in the show & her stepdad created it & it was the only thing us 15+ volunteers/apprentices were ever allowed to watch on tv. And, we had to all agree to watch it together. Lmao. I’m not kidding. Hard rule. Idk man. 🤣✌️
Gumby 4L.✨

Many of you may not know that I grew up playing Cello since 3rd grade all the way into my 20’s. This was the first song that I mastered and I would torture myself trying to play it faster and faster and faster. It was a weird fixation with finally feeling like I was really good at something and it still makes me tear up a little when I hear it.
I stopped playing in my late 20’s because they don’t make much modern cello sheet music and I had gotten sick of playing Bach over and over. I wish so so much that I could just play by ear my but my brain just doesn’t work that way. I think losing that instrument that I loved just translated into me delving deeper into my passion for cooking and now this is my music. I can’t paint or draw. I can’t do pottery. I don’t have my instrument anymore. But I have food and that is my canvas & melody. Eat Dank Food. ❤️
