thank you goodness for almonds...I love nuts and fruits. Laurie Anderson is guiding meditation...it is Songs of the Bardo. This is the dharmattha, the all good mother, your mind is also unobstructed, pure and vibrant.

The gongs go on.

I was really famished for almonds. 

I may try a go at ONE martini. Make a quick sugar syrup. 

*I made the martini espresso with vodka, sugar syrup, and khalua mint and mocha and espresso. I could not get a rim of crushed candy cane made. It would not stick to the rim even with syrup on it.
